Mobile power generation may be required for emergency service after a natural disaster; because political instability makes the creation of a full size power station impractical; for a major event or other temporary need; during a plant shutdown, or because the amount of power needed is relatively small and the location remote from the main power grid.

Clarcor Industrial Air filtration technology provides high level air inlet performance, protecting gas turbines in even the harshest of environments. Its clearcurrent PRO inlet air filtration solutions are specifically designed for power generation applications. Its Mobile Air Inlet System solution offers clearcurrent performance with the additional features necessary to make it work for mobile applications.   Clarcor’s air inlet system for the mobile power generation needs of GE and other turbine OEMs is manufactured from aluminium and, as a turbine consumes a huge amount of air, it is engineered to optimize aerodynamic performance. This makes the unit very light and compact for the size of gas turbine it protects.
