Ensure continuous operation and complete energy security with the Excel Power XL-DK-55 50kVA Diesel Generator. Engineered as a critical component of the Excel Power Standby Range of Diesel Generators, this robust unit is designed for permanent installation across commercial premises, agricultural sites, and high-demand private residences. When mains power fails or grid access is completely unavailable, having a dependable diesel backup generator is essential for keeping life-safety systems, machinery, and daily operations running smoothly without interruption.

Dual-Rating Performance: Prime and Standby Power

Whether serving as an emergency backup or supplying continuous energy for demanding work sites, the Excel Power XL-DK-55 offers exceptional performance tailored to your operational profile. Engineered to run efficiently at a steady 1500rpm, this 50kVA Diesel Generator is built to deliver high torque with reduced mechanical wear, ensuring longevity across long duty cycles.

For long-term continuous operations, the unit acts as a reliable prime power diesel generator delivering a steady 50kVA / 40kW output. During emergency mains failures, it delivers a robust Standby Power output of 55kVA / 44kW, giving your infrastructure the extra capacity needed to manage initial electrical surge loads without compromising frequency or voltage stability.

Heavy-Duty Depco Water-Cooled Engine & Alternator

At the core of the Excel Power XL-DK-55 lies a high-quality Depco water-cooled engine seamlessly coupled to a high-efficiency Depco alternator. This industrial-grade powertrain is purpose-built to withstand rigorous operational demands while maintaining optimal thermal efficiency under full load conditions.

To ensure long-lasting structural integrity and reduced noise impact on nearby structures, both the engine and alternator are mounted on heavy-duty anti-vibration mounts. This specialised mounting system provides effective damping of mechanical vibrations, protecting internal components, electrical terminals, and supporting pads from operational stress over years of service.

Precision Datakom D100 Control Panel and AVR Regulation

Monitoring and managing your backup power ecosystem should be straightforward and precise. This diesel generator comes equipped with the advanced Datakom D100 control panel, providing an intuitive interface for real-time diagnostics, performance telemetry, and system monitoring. The control system continuously tracks crucial metrics such as voltage, frequency, oil pressure, engine temperature, and operating hours.

To protect sensitive electronic equipment and delicate commercial machinery from hazardous power spikes, the system features a fully sealed automatic voltage regulator (AVR). This component maintains precise voltage regulation at , guaranteeing smooth, utility-grade power output even during sudden load changes.

Integrated 98L Bunded Fuel Tank & Standard Cold-Weather Features

Designed with environmental safety and ease of maintenance in mind, the unit features an integrated 98L bunded fuel tank. The fully bunded design provides a double-walled safety buffer that captures potential fluid leaks or spills, ensuring full compliance with modern environmental protection standards and site safety protocols.

To guarantee immediate start-up during freezing winter temperatures, the generator includes a built-in coolant heater and an automated battery trickle charger as standard features. By maintaining the engine block at an optimal standby temperature and keeping the starting battery fully charged at all times, this high-performance diesel backup generator is always primed for an instant start when the mains grid fails.

When will I receive my order?

In most cases, a product on our website will give you an indication of the current stock availability, but shipping is not uniform for all products. We maintain fantastic relationships with all of our suppliers and we aim to get products to customers within 3 business days of the order being taken. This availability is based on information from our suppliers and from sales and supply patterns. The availability information given is a guide only and not a guarantee as there are external factors that we may not have control over.

Coronavirus Update – UK couriers and transport companies will not currently guarantee delivery times and we are seeing a slight delay in deliveries – please bear this in mind when ordering.

Specialist Couriers – Some items such as the larger portable power stations are sent by specialist courier as standard couriers will not accept them. These specialist couriers are very reliable but sometimes don’t have tracking or timed delivery.

Split deliveries – We sometimes need to send orders for more than one item by different courier networks (portable power stations for example) – so you may receive items at different times.

1500rpm machines or larger diesel gensets however are typically priced on application and all depend on the destination. We will be happy to quote on any large diesel generator and discuss your needs over the phone or via email.

Most orders placed before 12pm on a business day will be shipped from our suppliers on the same day provided the product is in stock. If you need to be certain an item is in stock and available, or if you need a lead time, it’s worth calling our sales team on 01329 722390. Pricing for extended shipping areas like Northern Ireland, the Scottish Highlands and outlying Islands, Outer Hebrides, Channel Islands, Isle of Man, Scilly Isles, and other postcodes not considered as UK mainland are calculated at the checkout or can be obtained by calling our offices.

Please note that the processing of a payment and acknowledgement email does not constitute a legally binding contract. In the case of mispricing, changes in stock quantity, or if we believe the machine will be misused, we reserve the right to cancel the order and provide a full refund.

Heavy Items

You will be contacted by phone after ordering a larger item to confirm a delivery date before your order is dispatched. Large or heavy items are dispatched through a pallet network, so if we can’t get in contact with you, we may be unable to send out your item on a next day delivery. Please be sure to include a working phone number with your order.

Heavy items will require the recipient to make arrangements to take delivery of the goods and may require the recipient to help the courier unload the item. For items that are delivered on a pallet the courier will leave the pallet as close to your door as possible.

1500rpm diesel generators will require forklift (or similar) offloading; if this is not available then we can arrange a Hiab offload at an additional price – please call us to discuss any delivery requirements.
