Caterpillar Announces New EPA Certification For 1000kw Natural Gas Generator Set
Caterpillar Energy Solutions has announced the Cat® G3512 generator set is now EPA Certified for use in emergency and non-emergency applications at 1 g/bhp-hr NOx emissions with improved power quality. Rated for standby or continuous power at 750 ekW or 1000 ekW at 60 Hz, the G3512 is engineered to meet a full suite of critical market standards including NFPA 110 Level 1 Type 10 compatibility, and a UL 2200 listing. The G3512 series conforms to ISO 8528-5 G3 load acceptance criteria, improving transient and steady state performance.
“Our G3512 generator is uniquely engineered for flexible applications, where a single unit is used for both standby and load management operations,” said Mike Yohe, Caterpillar product development manager. “This generator was designed for maximum performance on low pressure gaseous fuel supply. The robust high-speed block design provides prolonged life of the unit and lowers overall owning and operating costs for our customers,” said Yohe.
