Spray Rig Power Options
The spray foam equipment needed for your specific application will dictate your power needs. Electrical power is required to run motors that drive pumps and support the auxiliary equipment needed to spray foam insulation.
No matter what your power requirements are, it is very important to make sure that consistent power is supplied to your equipment. Power fluctuations or an under supply of electricity increases wear and could damage spray equipment in the long run.
SHORE POWER
Shore power is power that is supplied through existing electrical panels located at the job site. Shore power is an adequate method to supply power to your mobile spray rig, but requires the presence of a professional electrician to make sure wiring is done correctly and safely, and to ensure there is an adequate supply of power to support your equipment.
GENERATOR
Power from generators is a consistent and proven way to provide power to your spray foam equipment. Gas and diesel powered generators are commonly used to supply the needed electrical power to the spray foam equipment and are widely used in the industry today. When specifying generator size, it is important to make sure you consider the overall power requirements of your spray rig including spray machine, compressor (if electric), lighting, tools, etc.
