LYNX is a manufacturer of commercial diesel generators for industrial and personal use. In Stalburg, multiple critical facilities use LYNX products as an auxiliary or backup generators, used in emergency situations whenever power from the main grid is cut.

Products

Model Diesel Gen C6/15E is notably used Black Rock Nuclear Power Plant, there the Unit 1 building has a hall with 6 main auxiliary generators and another smaller room with 3 more backup generators in case first 6 fail, a similar setup is present in Unit 2. One backup generator is also used at Pine Fell Pumping Station and two generators are used at Castle Rock Public Shelter.

Model Diesel Gen CS/450A is used as a backup generator for Black Rock Nuclear Power Plant. Mobile Gen CX/100B is a common equipment at construction sites, such as Castle Rock Bay Tunnel project, Castle Rock Bridge Renovation Site and Cistern project.

Both Mobile Gen CX/100B and a Mini Generator were used thoroughly by the residents of Stalburg when a massive blackout, caused by the main power grid failure, had hit the city in 2016. Given the poor state of Obenseuer and the unreliable utilities, Mini Generators are a common sight in many homes.

Trivia

  • LYNX is based on an American heavy equipment company called Caterpillar.
    • Originally the name of the LYNX company was GAT instead, however it was changed due to the name and the logo looking too similar to the actual CAT company.
  • In the INFRA files, there is a fifth type of a diesel generator, presumably also meant to be produced by LYNX, however its model was never fully finished and lacks any actual texturing. Two of these would be found on cut Industrial level.
