Reefer Genset (Clip-On) Hire near London Gateway
Portable, clip-on power for refrigerated containers when shore power isn’t available during road/rail legs, port staging, or remote sites. We deliver, mount and support 24/7 around the Thames Estuary & A13 corridor.
Clip-On Power for Refrigerated Containers
A reefer genset is a compact generator that clips onto a container’s end frame. It supplies the electricity a reefer needs to maintain temperature when external power isn’t available on trucks, trains, vessels, or remote yards.
- Typical output in the 15–20 kVA range at 460 V, 3-phase, 60 Hz (model dependent).
- Fast corner-casting attachment; mount/dismount in minutes by trained staff.
- Diesel engine with governed RPM for stable frequency.
- Designed for continuous operation to protect cold-chain integrity.
Typical Use Cases
Also need a site generator on a road-tow trailer? We can arrange 30–150 kVA towable units too.
