How Long Do Backup Generators Last?
The lifespan of a diesel backup generator is primarily influenced by its fuel supply, making the generator’s runtime directly dependent on the amount of fuel in the tank. Since fuel tanks can vary greatly in size, the duration that your generator can run without needing a refill will consequently vary based on the capacity of the tank linked to your generator.
In addition to fuel capacity, several other factors influence how long a diesel generator can operate:
Generator Quality and Maintenance: High-quality generators that are regularly serviced can last for many years. Routine maintenance is crucial in extending the life of a diesel generator, including regular checks, and replacing parts as needed.
Usage Frequency: How often a generator is used can also impact its longevity. Generators that are used frequently may require more frequent maintenance, whereas those used less often might last longer but will need periodic testing to ensure they remain in good working condition.
Operating Conditions: The environment in which a generator operates affects its lifespan. Generators working in harsh conditions, such as extreme temperatures or dusty environments, may have a reduced lifespan due to greater wear and tear.
Type of Load: The type of load the generator supports — whether it’s running at full capacity, at a variable load, or intermittently — can also affect its durability and operational lifespan.
