Galaxy Baseframe

The baseframes of the new Galaxy GO - GX series. Each size is designed to house multiple genset models based on the power, and the brand of the engine and alternator, for example frame model GV030 can house 8 different engines. In the bottom part of the baseframe there is fuel tank with different capacities, according to the model and to the current regulations; all baseframes are equipped with retention basin.

CONTRUCTION, PAINT & INSTALLATION
CONSTRUCTION FEATURES

The main feature of the baseframe is a steel sheet metal panel folded lengthwise so as to form a retention basin for any fluid that may leak from the unit, for example oil or fuel during maintenance; all the joints between the parts are made so as to prevent this liquid from leaking onto the ground.
SOLUTIONS

All parts are made from top quality S235JR steel in accordance with UNI EN 10025-95. The tank is housed inside the basin created by the baseframe under the engine; made with steel sheet metal, it is subject to strict seal tests before assembly.
PAINTING

Each part is painted with thermosetting powder with a specifically selected polyester resin base to make them highly resistant to atmospheric agents; the pigments are distinguished by very high stability against light and heat. The painting process for each part is preceded by a phospho-degreasing cycle and demineralised water rinse at 170°. The thickness of the paint is set at 100/150 micron. Polymerisation is carried out by keeping the pieces in the oven at 200 °C for 25 minutes. The standard shade of colour is Ral 9005 (black). Other colours are available on request.
INSTALLATION

Crossbeams fitted with fuel and lubricant-resistant vulcanised rubber anti-vibration mounts are bolted onto the baseframe.
EQUIPMENT

GV-series frames that equip versions GO and GX are all fitted with the following accessories: - electric fuel level sensor - filler cap - sleeves for the automatic loading system connection - connecting sleeves for the engine power supply circuit - bottom plugs to empty and clean the tank - Hole to pass the genset electric power and control cables through; central lifting (standard on GV150 and GV200 frames, not available for oversize tanks).
