Eliminate the #1 Cause of Generator Failure Before it Becomes a Problem

For more than 50 years, SENS has helped customers keep critical power. Now, we’re bringing that engineered reliability to the system level.

The SENS Approach

SENS takes a system-level approach to DC power and engine starting, bringing engineering, assembly, and factory testing together to deliver pre-engineered, single-part-number systems. This creates highly reliable starting systems that vastly decrease or even eliminate the need for maintenance.

Instead of requiring field assembly of critical DC components, the SuperTorque® 8R is a single, engineered engine starting system that is designed, assembled, wired, and tested before it ever reaches your site.

The Traditional Approach to Power Introduces Risk Where You Can’t Afford It

Starting battery failure remains the leading cause of generator failure in mission-critical environments.

Yet most engine starting systems are still built the same way: separate batteries, separate chargers, separate racks, selectors, disconnects, cables, and conduits – all assembled and wired in the field.

This approach increases:

  • Installation variability 

  • Commissioning complexity
  • Ongoing maintenance

  • Failure points

When the starting system fails, the generator never starts.

Why Mission-Critical Operators, Engineers, and EPCs Choose the SuperTorque® 8R

  1.  Radically Improves Starting Reliability

    An integrated architecture reduces failure points introduced by multi-vendor, field-assembled systems. 
  2.  Ships Preassembled and Pre-Wired

    Arrives ready for drop-in installation, reducing field labor and commissioning risk. 
  3.  Saves Installation Time 

    On average, 6 hours saved per unit compared to installing individual components.
  4.  Frees Up Valuable Space

    Up to 90% reduction in space compared to traditional systems.
  5.  Simplifies Specification and Procurement
    Specify the entire engine DC system with a single part number.

  6.  Built for Mission-Critical Environments

    • UL listed
    • Seismic certified
    • Designed using SENS' worst-case engineering methodology
  7.  Long-Term Confidence
    Backed by a 10-year full warranty.
