Product catalog summary

Overview: This document serves as a comprehensive guide on electric power ratings for Cat® Diesel and Gas Generator Sets, detailing specifications for various models and configurations. It includes ratings for both 50 Hz and 60 Hz systems, rental power ratings, and definitions of diesel and gas ratings.

Cat® Diesel Generator Sets:

50 Hz Ratings: Range from 275 kVA to 4000 kVA, featuring models like 3406C, C13, C15, C18, and 3512B known for low BSFC and emissions.
60 Hz Ratings: Available from 36 ekW to 4000 ekW, primarily for North America, with models such as C4.4 ESE, C9 ESE, and 3516C EPA T4.
Rental Power Ratings: 60 Hz ratings from 18 ekW to 1250 ekW, including models like XQ20, XQ60, and XQ1250G.

Cat® Gas Generator Sets:

50 Hz Continuous Ratings: From 66 kW to 9700 kW, with models like G3306 NA, G3516, and G20CM34, suitable for natural gas and biogas.
60 Hz Standby Ratings: Range from 235 kW to 1040 kW, featuring models such as G3406 TA and G3516.

Definitions:

Emergency Standby Power (ESP): For emergency outages, with an average power output of 70% of the rating.
Standby Power: For interruptions of normal power, with an average output of 70%.
Prime Power: For unlimited time with varying load, average output at 70%.
Continuous Power: For constant load without variation, average output between 70-100%.

Additional Information:

EMCP 4: Details on control systems for generator sets.
Systems Products: Information on additional system products available.
Conversion Tables: Useful for converting various power ratings and measurements.
Product Support: Definitions and customer support agreements for product maintenance and service.

Specifications and Ratings: The document provides detailed specifications for various gas engines, including power ratings at different RPMs and fuel types (Natural Gas and Biogas). Engines are categorized as Naturally Aspirated (NA) or Turbocharged & Aftercooled (TA), with specific power outputs listed for each model.

Gas Rating Definitions: Definitions for standby and continuous power ratings are provided, explaining the conditions under which these ratings apply, such as load variations and operational hours, adhering to ISO standards.

EMCP 4 Series Controllers: The EMCP 4 series includes models 4.1 to 4.4, each offering varying levels of engine control and monitoring capabilities, from basic controls to advanced features like automatic generator set paralleling and load sharing.

Paralleling Switchgear and UPS Systems: Features of paralleling switchgear systems are outlined, customizable for various applications such as emergency standby and utility paralleling. UPS systems with different output capacities and types, including double conversion and line interactive models, are detailed.

Electrical and Fuel System Conversions: Conversion tables and formulas are provided for calculating electrical parameters such as kW, kVA, and amperes, along with guidelines for diesel fuel system sizing and on-site power requirements.

Reduced Voltage Starters: Various types of reduced voltage starters are described, including full voltage, auto transformer, resistor, and reactor starters, comparing characteristics like starting current and torque.

Engine Room Ventilation: Guidelines for engine room ventilation are likely included to ensure optimal performance and safety, with calculations provided for ventilation air requirements.

Comparison of Reduced Voltage Starting Methods:

Autotransformer: Least line disturbance, same terminal voltage, ease of control, consistent maintenance, and power draw.
Reactor: Similar to autotransformer with consistent power draw and maintenance.
Two-Step Part Winding: Smooth acceleration, lacks starting current adjustment, more line disturbance than autotransformer.
Primary Resistor: Lower terminal voltage in small sizes, smooth acceleration, average torque, adds considerable kW load to generator set.

Engine Room Ventilation: Ventilation can be calculated using specific formulas for cfm and m3/min, considering heat radiation and permissible temperature rise.

Conversion Factors: Extensive tables are provided for converting units of flow, energy, area, length, weight, volume, capacity, power, and pressure, including specific conversions for U.S. and metric units.

Product Support and Customer Agreements:

Extended Service Coverage (ESC): Offers various coverage levels (Silver, Gold, Platinum, Platinum Plus) for Cat Electric Power Products, covering parts, labor, and travel costs.
Customer Support Agreements (CSA): Tailored agreements to reduce production costs, including Preventive Maintenance (PM) and Total Maintenance and Repair (TM&R) agreements, covering inspections, maintenance, and use of genuine Cat parts.
