The Fischer Panda 15000i 3-Phase is a variable-speed inverter marine diesel generator for vessels using 400V or 230V, 50Hz three-phase AC systems. It provides 12 kW continuous output, or 15 kVA, and uses a Kubota D1105 three-cylinder diesel engine with permanent-magnet inverter technology. The inverter-regulated design maintains stable three-phase output while engine speed adjusts from approximately 2,200 to 2,800 RPM based on electrical demand.

The generator uses dual-circuit water cooling for the engine and alternator, a soundproof composite canopy, and iControl2 remote monitoring with CAN-bus integration. It is intended for properly designed three-phase vessel electrical systems and requires attention to phase balance, power factor, motor-starting demand, AC distribution, transfer switching, grounding, and qualified installation procedures.

System Integration

This generator requires a complete three-phase marine electrical installation. Add diesel fuel feed and return plumbing, raw-water intake and strainer, exhaust system, ventilation, starting battery, correctly rated three-phase AC distribution, shore-power transfer or interlock equipment, grounding and bonding, phase protection, and circuit breakers.

Confirm the vessel requires a 400V or 230V three-phase 50Hz generator and assess phase balancing before purchase. Uneven loading can reduce performance and affect connected equipment. Include continuous load, simultaneous demand, power factor, motor-starting current, and expected future expansion in the generator-sizing calculation.

Installation Considerations

Mount the generator on a rigid vibration-isolated foundation designed for approximately 195 kg, with sufficient access for oil, fuel filters, coolant, raw-water impeller, exhaust, electrical terminals, and canopy service. Maintain safe exhaust routing, reliable cooling-water supply, correct fuel plumbing, and adequate ventilation. Test voltage, frequency, phase sequence, phase balance, cooling, alarms, shutdowns, and load response during commissioning.

Before Ordering

Confirm required continuous and surge load within 12 kW, exact 400V or 230V three-phase 50Hz requirements, phase-balancing needs, available 650 mm by 470 mm by 560 mm installation space, structural support for approximately 195 kg, fuel and raw-water layout, exhaust route, ventilation capacity, starting-battery circuit, iControl2 panel connection, AC distribution and transfer-switch design, grounding plan, service access, and qualified marine-generator installation requirements before purchase.
