About Fischer Panda
Fischer Panda GmbH, headquartered in Paderborn, develops and manufactures compact, lightweight and quiet water-cooled diesel generators for marine and vehicle applications. The portfolio comprises more than 200 generator models with outputs from 2.5 kW to 60 kW, including AC generators (i-Series and x-Series), DC charging generators (AGT-DC / Hybrid Power) and standalone PSC units. In addition, the company offers electric propulsion systems from 1.7 kW to 20 kW as POD, shaft and parallel hybrid drives as well as self-developed control and inverter systems. The generators consist of compact engine technology, specially manufactured alternators and sound-insulated capsules; the basis is provided by diesel engines from Kubota, HATZ and Mitsubishi and, since the Panda 5000i.Neo, also the in-house developed FP320 engine. Products are deployed on yachts and superyachts, in special-purpose vehicles, emergency and broadcasting vehicles, motorhomes, in military applications and in e-mobility. The main plant in Paderborn covers 18,000 m²; through the One Fischer Panda network, more than 500 technicians are active worldwide in over 80 countries.
