Fishing is an important pillar industry in China, and the electric equipment on fishing vessels is crucial to the operation and running of fishing vessels.

Diesel generator sets are widely used in the fishing industry. The following will analyze the uses and advantages of diesel generator sets in the fishing industry from different perspectives.

Uses of diesel generator sets in the fishing industry

Operating equipment support

The electrical installations on fishing vessels need to support a variety of equipment to ensure that fishermen can safely and efficiently catch seafood. This equipment includes underwater lights, electric winches, cooling units and electric fishing nets to name a few, all of which require electrical support. Diesel generator sets can provide reliable power to all electrical equipment on board, ensuring the safety of fishing gear and fishermen.

Ensure the freshness of the catch

The fishing industry often requires long hours in the water, and the fish and seafood caught need to be kept fresh to ensure their quality and taste. Diesel generator sets can provide enough power for refrigerators and cold storage to ensure that the caught seafood can be stored fresh, as well as support all the equipment that needs power.

Energy saving and environmental protection

Diesel generator sets usually have high energy efficiency, thus minimizing energy consumption during long hours of operation. Compared with traditional oil-fired generators, diesel gensets are not only more environmentally friendly, but also less noisy, more in line with environmental targets, and more suitable for open water operations.

Easy maintenance

For the marine environment, diesel generator sets are compact and easy to maintain. Even in the harsher marine environment, these units can run for a long time and have a shorter maintenance time. This also avoids the occurrence of the fishing work plan being affected by the failure of the power supply.

Support navigation

The driving power of the vessel needs to be provided by the engine. The generator acts as a power source in low speed sailing or stay condition to provide power to the vessel, which enhances the self-sufficiency of the vessel, and the presence of these equipments can prevent accidental wrecks in foggy weather at sea or in case of accidents.

Diesel generator sets have a variety of advantages and uses in the fishing industry. They can provide stable power support for fishing vessels while ensuring that the caught seafood remains its freshness, and they can also ensure environmental protection and energy efficiency, providing fishermen with greater productivity while ensuring the safety and quality of the caught catch.
