Fischer Panda Generators U.S.A. reports increased sales of its Marine generators for Military Applications
OAKLAND PARK, FL— NOVEMBER 30, 2009 — The U.S. office of Fischer Panda Generators has announced the restructuring of its Marine Sales operation in order to increase its focus on the sales and service of its range on marine generators for various military and homeland security vehicle applications.
The U.S. operation (www.fischerpanda.com), which began in 1995, has strong market ties into marine OEMs and dealers, the specialty commercial vehicle markets and military integrators in North America. As a result of an increase in the public sector contracts, which includes homeland security and military, Fischer Panda Generators U.S. has identified new opportunities for its range of asynchronous and permanent magnet designed Marine generators. The Marine Sales Division will now be responsible for marketing the range of Fischer Panda Marine generators to government and military OEM’s. The Military Sales Department will be headquartered at the company’s main office located at 4345 NE 12 Terrace in Oakland Park, Florida. Chad Godwin will oversee all OEM sales.
Fischer Panda military generators are smaller, lighter and up to four times quieter than the current military Tactical Quiet Generator (TGQ) systems. Current Fischer Panda vehicle/shelter solutions—the 10kW and 18 kW generators [asynchronous] and 25kw [permanent magnet]—are compatible as trailer-mounted systems, which are HMMWV towable and C130 transportable, and built to provide full power in a battlefield condition.
Standard range of commercial vehicle AC generators [trailer mountable] offered by Fischer Panda range from 10kW to 50kW. The company also offers battery charging Military grade DC generators available from 3kW to 10kW.”
Through its standard line of innovative water cooled marine generators– ranging from 4 kW to 20 kW– Fischer Panda Generators U.S. has provided hundreds of solutions for both sail and powerboat manufacturers and owners throughout the Americas. The six traditional Fischer Panda AC generators are the PMS 4200 Plus, PMS 6000, PMS 8 Mini-DP, PMS 12 Mini-DP, PMS15 DP and PMS 20 DP. Fischer Panda also has two standard DC generators—AGT 4000 and AGT 6000 with a variety of DC voltages available.
As the only true 100%, water-cooled asynchronous generators on the market, Fischer Panda stands apart from the competition. No other cooling system is more efficient. The Fischer Panda generator can cool the stator winding with nearly 100-percent efficiency due to the unique design of the asynchronous rotor that has no windings, no brushes or diodes. A conventional synchronous generator, on the other hand, can never achieve this level of efficiency because the rotor windings are cooled with air. That same air is very hot and transfers considerable noise. The air also carries humidity and dirt into the windings, which increases the resistance and thereby reduces electrical output.
The freshwater-cooled Fischer Panda generators provide distinct advantages over air-cooled generators, in size, weight, noise and efficiency.
Fischer Panda Generators
Fischer Panda Generators has played a pioneering role in the design and manufacture of marine and vehicle generators for the past 31 years. In 1978 in Germany, Fischer Generators developed the quietest diesel generator in the world. That trend towards small, quiet and super efficiency was to continue, and in 1988, Fischer Generators added “Panda” to its brand and introduced its proprietary and water-cooled, asynchronous electric plant. Fischer Panda U.S., which began operations in 1995, is located at 4345 NE 12 Terrace in Oakland Park, Florida.

A native Californian, Harker, 60, always gravitated toward extreme sports on the water and in the air. He was a national water skiing champion at age 16 and 18. As a young adult, he pioneered early ˜70s hang-gliding development. In 1977, a terrifying glider accident thrust Harker into a 400-foot freefall, leaving him unconscious for a year and paralyzed from the knees down. Through multiple surgeries and arduous physical therapy, he persevered until he could walk again.
Harker is dependent on good equipment to go around the world. He said he has confidence in his Panda 12 DP because everything made in Germany is made with precision. œThat’s why I chose a Fischer Panda Generator as an orderable option. I’m living off my generator. It has to perform without flaw.
