Industrial standby source
200 kVA diesel generator
Rated output: 200 kVA · Approx. 160 kW at PF 0.8 · Voltage: 400 V / 50 Hz
200 kVA generators are a popular choice for larger production halls, industrial warehouses, shopping centres and mid-size data rooms. The 160 kW output (at PF 0.8) backs up an entire medium operation — from process equipment through air-conditioning to safety systems.
Duty types
PRP and ESP are not interchangeable
ESP — standby power
Emergency operation during grid outages at variable load. The rating applies to limited-hour standby duty, not continuous running.
PRP — prime power
Variable continuous operation as the main power source. A prime rating is lower than the standby rating of the same unit and is confirmed per engine and application.
Tell us the intended duty when you inquire — the required rating (PRP or ESP) for your 200 kVA project is confirmed during sizing, never assumed.
Typical use
Typical applications for a 200 kVA generator
Production halls and plants
Backup for mid-size production operations with machinery, lighting and process facilities.
Retail centres and supermarkets
Power for food refrigeration, checkouts, lighting and HVAC during grid outages.
Small data rooms
Backup for server rooms and colocation sites, compatible with UPS bridging for the changeover.
Logistics and warehouses
Backup for automated warehouses, conveyors and loading ramps.
Large building sites
Primary power for construction projects — residential complexes, industrial halls, infrastructure.
Hospitals and clinics
Backup for a mid-size hospital or outpatient clinic requiring uninterrupted operation.

Typical configuration of a 200 kVA generator
Automatic transfer switch (ATS)
Automatic changeover to backup power in about 10 seconds from grid failure on suitable models — unattended operation agreed per project.
Load management
Staged reconnection of loads after generator start to avoid overload and protect sensitive equipment — configuration depends on the control system selected.
Remote monitoring options
GSM alarm notifications and remote diagnostics of status, output and alarms where supported by the control unit; broader integration as an individual project solution.
Fuel tank options
Tanks for around 24–48 hours of continuous operation at rated output depending on the model.
All options above are project variants depending on the selected model and agreed scope — they are not universal features of every unit. Tank autonomy, sound levels, monitoring interfaces, HVO compatibility and paralleling are confirmed for the specific configuration in your quotation. All units come with the manufacturer's warranty.

Frequently asked questions
200 kVA — common questions
Is a 200 kVA generator the right size for my project?
A 200 kVA rating corresponds to roughly 160 kW of usable output at a power factor of 0.8. Compare the total connected load of your facility, including starting currents of the largest motors, with the continuous load you need to sustain. Our engineers verify the final sizing from your actual load profile before a quotation.
Is 200 kVA a standby (ESP) or prime (PRP) rating?
Both duty types exist in this power class, and the numbers are not interchangeable: an ESP (standby) rating applies to emergency operation during grid outages, while PRP (prime) applies to variable continuous operation. Always tell us the intended duty — the required rating (PRP or ESP) is confirmed during project sizing, never assumed.
What does delivery and installation of a 200 kVA unit involve?
In Czechia we can supply the generator alone, design the installation, commission it on a prepared site, or deliver a turnkey solution with contracted service — the scope is agreed per project. For international customers the supply is preferably EXW CZ/NL with transport arranged individually; installation and service abroad are confirmed per destination and model.
Czech projects
Supply, design, commissioning or turnkey
For Czech customers we can deliver the generator alone, design the installation, commission it on a prepared site, or realize the project turnkey — with contracted service according to the agreed scope. The scope is clarified during consultation.
International
Direct sale, preferably EXW CZ/NL
International customers receive a direct generator sale, preferably EXW CZ/NL, with transport arranged individually. Installation and service abroad are confirmed individually per destination and model.
Availability and dispatch
Availability depends on the rating — the current stock list starts at 25 kVA ESP, and availability of the requested rating is confirmed in your quotation. Confirmed warehouse units can be dispatched within 48 hours after the order, conditions and payment are closed — a dispatch time, not a delivery-time promise. The current stock list covers models that are in stock or in transit.
