Power solutions for an observatory research project in China
Project
China's Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO) Project, a cosmic ray detection facility located in the high mountains of Sichuan province, recently began scientific observation of very high-energy cosmic rays as it launched operations of its first set of detectors. Pramac provided, for this significant scientific research project in China, 3 units of MTU series genset for power backup: the units are used in very strict conditions, at an altitude of 4410m and for around 2000 operation hours per year.
