Description
Designed and assembled inhouse, the B7 model BOLLARD Sound Enclosures are built to fit our 42kW, 65kW, 99kW, and 104kW commercial marine generators. The B8 model is designed for our 121kW – 184kW generators.
The design completely isolates the generator and engine air intake from the engine compartment. As a result, the generator cooling fan draws only cool air from outside the enclosure over the windings.
The enclosure’s seals prevent hot air inside the engine compartment, short cycling through the generator windings, and increasing heat. Running cooler means less wind resistance, improved generator efficiency, and fuel consumption.
The sound shields emphasize equipment serviceability, functionality, and system integration. Every connection point has been considered, from fuel to remote panels, block heaters, and AC connections. (See the Dimensions & Service Points sheet.)
BOLLARD Marine Generator Sound Enclosures are the only model with an integrated clutched PTO option, allowing for quiet hydraulic pump operation.
