Creating an effective workspace environment1

Cockermouth's new £11 million hospital and health centre.

The old community Hospital building in Cockermouth was over 100years old, planning permission was granted for a new £11 millionpurpose build hospital.

The community hospital provides medical, nursing rehabilitation andend of life care to enable local people to be cared for close to theirhomes. The community hospital also provides medical, nursing andtherapy services to patients.

Client Situation

The new community hospital will replace the existing CockermouthCottage Hospital on Isel road which is more than 100 years old andwill provide new facilities for the town's GP's who are currentlyworking out of temporary accommodation following the floodswhich devastated Cockermouth in November 2009.

The new hospital will combine GP and community hospital serviceson one site.

As part of this new development programme CockermouthCommunity hospital have taken this opportunity to invest in a new“essential power” generator to support life supporting equipmentand services for the new facility.

Replacement Generator Set

Workspace Technology’s Power Generation Divisionworked closely with the Cumbria NHS trust projectteam and electrical contractors to supply, deliver,install and commission a 160KVA diesel generator set.

Workspace Technology’s experienced PowerGeneration team designed a bespoke solution thatwas required to meet the demanding specification.Based on the Workspace Technology’s WTL160generator series a 160kVA/127kW Prime rated,Automatic Mains Failure generator set was designedcomplete with a stage 3A IVECO NEF67 TM 3A DieselEngine, Mecc Alte ECO-38 2S

Due to the location of the generator set within anunderground plant room, the Workspace engineering

team only had one external wall to supply air inletsand outlets, so a bespoke modification to a standardWorkspace Power Generation generator set wasengineered, which was achieved by fitting an 90o airoutlet turning duct complete with noise attenuation toa high level within the plant room and at ground level,low level air inlet attenuators, this to allow operating airfor the generator and to achieve an external noiselevel of 65dBA@1 metre. 8 metres of twinned wallstainless steel exhaust system was installedhorizontally across to the back of the plant room andexited vertically to open air, this was weather cappedto prevent the ingress of rain water.

The standard enclosure was supplied a 250litre basefuel tank delivering a run time of 9 hours at 80% load.

The WTL160 generator is controlled by a DeepSea7320 controller and fitted with a 250A set mountedMotorised Circuit Breaker.
