When a diesel generator fails during a power outage, the chaos is immediate. Operations scrambles to find backup, maintenance searches for parts, and management demands answers. This reactive firefighting is the symptom of a deeper problem—the absence of a structured Asset Master Workflow. Without a centralized system to track generator specifications, maintenance history, and spare parts inventory, every failure becomes a fresh crisis instead of a managed event.
OXmaint transforms diesel generator management by establishing a comprehensive Asset Master that serves as the single source of truth. Every generator in your fleet—from portable 20kW units to industrial 2MW standby systems—gets a digital identity that captures specifications, maintenance schedules, failure history, and parts availability.
The 5 Pillars of Asset Master Excellence
01
Asset Registry
Complete catalog of every generator with make, model, serial number, installation date, and location mapping.
02
Specification Library
Fuel type, kW rating, voltage output, runtime capacity, and manufacturer specs stored and accessible.
03
Maintenance History
Every oil change, filter replacement, and load bank test documented with timestamps and technician notes.
04
Parts Linkage
Direct connection between each asset and its required spare parts, suppliers, and lead times.
05
Compliance Tracking
EPA emissions testing, AHJ inspections, and NFPA 110 compliance schedules automated and monitored.
Building these five pillars creates operational resilience. Your team stops reacting and starts predicting. Schedule a demo with OXmaint to see how Asset Masters transform generator reliability.
End the Generator Guessing Game
OXmaint's Asset Master provides instant access to every specification, warranty document, and maintenance record your team needs—before the emergency happens.
A robust Asset Master Workflow is not a static database—it is a living system that guides daily operations, informs maintenance decisions, and captures institutional knowledge. OXmaint digitizes this workflow from asset acquisition to decommissioning.
From Procurement to Performance

Build Generator Intelligence
OXmaint provides the framework to capture every detail about your diesel generators—from fuel filter part numbers to load bank test results—accessible from any device.
A diesel generator Asset Master must capture data unique to power generation equipment. Generic asset fields are not enough—you need generator-specific intelligence.
Critical Data for Diesel Generator Assets
What your Asset Master must include
Engine Specifications
Engine make, model, and displacement
Fuel type (Diesel #2, Biodiesel blend)
Oil capacity and type specification
Coolant capacity and mixture ratio
Air filter part number and cross-references
+
Electrical Output
Prime and standby kW ratings
Voltage configuration (480V/277V, etc.)
Phase configuration (Single/3-Phase)
Frequency (50Hz/60Hz)
Transfer switch compatibility
Complete Asset Data = Faster Repairs + Correct Parts + Confident Decisions
The ROI of Structured Asset Management
Every hour spent building your Asset Master pays dividends for years. The cost of poor data is hidden in emergency callouts, wrong parts orders, and compliance failures.

Industry Applications
Critical Sectors for Generator Asset Masters
Healthcare Facilities
NFPA 110 compliance tracking, monthly load bank test scheduling, and ATS maintenance records.
Life Safety Compliance
Data Centers
Tier certification documentation, N+1 redundancy tracking, and fuel testing schedules.
Uptime Assurance
Commercial Buildings
Code compliance for elevator backup, emergency lighting systems, and fire pump generators.
Tenant Safety
Capture Institutional Knowledge
Your senior technician knows which generators are temperamental and which run forever. OXmaint captures that knowledge in the Asset Master so it never walks out the door.
An Asset Master without linked preventive maintenance is just a database. OXmaint connects every generator to its specific PM requirements.
Generator PM Task Library
Weekly Tasks
Check engine oil level
Inspect coolant level
Verify fuel level and quality
Check battery electrolyte
Run no-load exercise (30 min)
Monthly/Quarterly Tasks
Load bank test (30% minimum)
Check belt tension and condition
Inspect hoses for cracks
Test block heater operation
Verify ATS transfer function
Mobile Access: Asset Data in the Field
Your technicians need Asset Master data where failures happen—not back at the office. OXmaint's mobile app puts generator specifications in their pocket.
An Asset Master is the comprehensive digital record for a physical asset. For diesel generators, it includes specifications (kW rating, voltage, fuel type), maintenance history, linked spare parts, warranty information, compliance records, and operational data like hour meter readings. It serves as the single source of truth that all maintenance activities reference.
How long does it take to build an Asset Master for our generators?
Initial data entry for a typical generator takes 15-30 minutes. A complete Asset Master buildout for a fleet of 20 generators, including PM schedule configuration and parts linkage, typically requires 2-4 weeks of part-time effort. OXmaint provides templates and bulk import tools to accelerate the process.
Can OXmaint track runtime hours automatically?
Yes. OXmaint supports both manual hour meter entry (via mobile app during inspections) and automatic integration with generator controllers that support remote monitoring. Runtime-based PM triggers can be configured to generate work orders when hour thresholds are reached.
How does the Asset Master help with compliance?
OXmaint stores all compliance-related data in the Asset Master: NFPA 110 inspection records, EPA emissions test results, AHJ inspection reports, and load bank test documentation. The system automatically schedules recurring compliance tasks and maintains a complete audit trail for inspectors.
