SENS Introduces SuperTorque® 8ZR to Revolutionize Genset Engine Starting Systems

Stored Energy Systems (SENS) has unveiled the SuperTorque® 8ZR, a groundbreaking DC genset engine starting system designed to enhance the reliability and efficiency of generators in mission-critical environments such as data centers, hospitals, and oil and gas operations. This innovative system addresses the primary cause of standby generator failures—the starting battery system—by offering a fully integrated, factory-tested solution that significantly reduces failure points and space requirements.

The SuperTorque® 8ZR stands out with its 10-year full replacement warranty, compact size that is 90% smaller than traditional systems, and a maintenance-free design that eliminates the need for regular battery replacements. Additionally, it boasts sustainability credentials with no hazardous materials and a 96% reduction in lifetime greenhouse gas emissions. The system also promises a low total cost of ownership, offering more than 50% cost savings over ten years.

Olen Scott, Chief Revenue Officer for SENS, highlighted the system's efficiency, stating, 'The 8ZR streamlines installation by reducing the number of on-site connections and manual integration steps.' This not only cuts down potential failure points but also saves approximately eight labor hours per generator enclosure, making it the simplest and most reliable engine starting system available today.

Manufactured at SENS's ISO 9001:2015-certified facility in Longmont, Colorado, the SuperTorque® 8ZR is a drop-in, purpose-built solution that supports critical infrastructure by ensuring uptime, reducing operational complexity, and meeting the increasing demands for power resilience. This development is a testament to SENS's commitment to providing durable solutions that maximize battery life and prevent downtime for mission-critical operations worldwide.
