42kVA, Three Phase, Standby Diesel Generator with Cummins Engine with 400L Tank - Hire

The Welling & Crossley ED42CuYE/3-SH 42kVA Three Phase Standby Diesel Generator – Hire is a robust, hire-ready diesel generator designed to deliver dependable 415V three phase standby power across temporary site power, commercial, rural, industrial, and essential equipment applications. Powered by a Cummins 4BT3.9G2 turbocharged diesel engine and paired with a Crossley SLG Series single bearing, 4-pole brushless alternator, this unit is built for practical field use where reliability, performance, and ease of operation matter.

Supplied with a 400 litre diesel fuel tank, remote start/stop control system, auto-start control module, and weather protective acoustic canopy, the ED42CuYE/3-SH is well suited to hire fleets, temporary worksites, rural operations, workshops, commercial backup, and infrastructure support. The hire configuration includes practical site-use features such as 3 x 15A single phase outlets, 1 x 32A 5-pin three phase outlet, IP66 RCD protected outlets, starter isolator, battery isolator, external hard-wired connection point, external fuel fill point, external oil, fuel, bund and coolant drain points, and lifting points.

The acoustic canopy helps protect the generator from the elements while reducing operating noise to approximately 70 dB(A) at 1 metre, or 63 dB(A) at 7 metres. The generating set is mounted on a heavy duty fabricated steel base frame, with anti-vibration pads fitted between the engine, alternator, and base frame to help isolate vibration and support smooth operation.

For safer diesel storage on site, the ED42CuYE/3-SH includes a fully bunded fuel tank compliant with AS 1940-2004, providing secondary containment designed to retain and recover spillage if required. A trickle charge battery charger is also fitted to help ensure the generator is ready to start when needed.

The standard auto-start control module supports remote or local starting and provides key monitoring and protection functions, including alternator frequency and speed sensing, generator/load power monitoring, accumulated power monitoring, generator overload protection, fuel and start outputs, engine speed protection, run-time scheduling, battery voltage monitoring, and static battery charging. It can also be configured to operate with an Automatic Transfer Switch for automatic standby power applications.

With its Cummins diesel engine, 42kVA standby rating, 415V three phase output, 400L bunded tank, acoustic canopy, RCD protected outlets, and hire-focused access features, the ED42CuYE/3-SH is a practical choice for customers needing reliable three phase diesel standby power in a robust, site-ready generator package.
