Jenbacher Type 6 - GE - Jenbacher gas engines - #1

Jenbacher type 6

cutting-edge technology

Continuously refined based on our extensive experience, the Jenbacher type 6 engines are reliable, advanced products serving the 1.8 to 3 MW power range. Its 1,500 rpm engine speed results in a high power density and low installation costs. The type 6 pre-combustion chamber achieves maximum efficiency with low emissions. Proven design and optimized components enable a service life of 60,000 operating hours before the first major overhaul.

description

The generated electricity covers the entire electricity requirement of the Beretta factory, while the heat is used for the production process. By using our cogeneration system, Beretta was able to reduce the energy supply costs for the factory by 30%.

Three Jenbacher generator sets supply power generation for continuous operation of compres­sor chillers to provide chilled water for cooling to a residential area that incorporates apartments, shopping centres, mosques, a police station, and a cinema complex.

The Jenbacher cogeneration systems provide power for artificial lighting, heat and C0₂ to increase the greenhouse rose production capabilities. The C0₂ produced from the exhaust gas of the engines is used for fertilization in the greenhouses.

The wood gas produced and cleaned in a fluidized bed/steam reactor is converted into heat and power in the Jenbacher cogeneration plant and forms an important component in an innovative project aimed at meeting 100% of the region's energy needs from renewable sources.
