24/7 Maintenance Services We Offer

Nidec Power offers on-site, 24/7/365 availability to keep you running when it matters most. Our team can serve your needs both on-shore and off-shore. We specialize in Kato Engineering™ and Leroy-Somer™ alternator repair, Motors, Generators, and Control Systems. Extensive parts inventory on hand means we are able to respond and complete your job quickly.

Genset maintenance is a complex subject. Gensets must be available 24/7, to avoid blackouts or failure to respond.

The prime mover (diesel engine or turbine) is often at the core of maintenance programs: fuel, filters, lubrication, overheating, vibration, etc. After all, they are big and very visible.

Are you sure you haven’t forgotten anything?

While less obstructive than the prime mover, the alternator is a vital component of the genset, requiring specific attention and care. Wear and critical parts must be regularly controlled, and only an expert can detect early signs of a more serious problem.

At Nidec Power, we collaborate daily with genset manufacturers to develop efficient and sustainable power generation solutions. As the original manufacturers of Kato Engineering™ and Leroy-Somer™ alternators, we are uniquely positioned to deliver high-quality services, carried out by skilled and certified professionals.
