CONTINUOUS POWER FOR CONTINUOUS CARE To ensure patient safety at the American Hospital Dubai (AHD), it’s critical that backup power is available within 20 seconds of a power failure. The AHD, a general medical and surgical hospital providing high-quality healthcare to Dubai, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and the surrounding Gulf States, was preparing for an expansion. Additions included a sevenstory, in-patient tower, an expanded regional center for diagnostic and interventional radiology, and a reference laboratory. The AHD chose to install an integrated system consisting of two Cat C175-16

“We trust the quality of Cat products and the ongoing support we receive.” – Stephen Fenn, director of the facilities management department at AHD diesel generator sets rated at 3 MVA for standby power, and a UPS 300 (rated at 250 kVA) using an integrated, high-speed flywheel kinetic energy storage system. The C175-16 generator sets have provided a variety of benefits. Not only do they ensure sufficient energy, with rapid availability in the event of a grid outage, they extend oil change intervals, improve component life, and reduce fuel consumption, all of which result in lower operating...

TRUSTED TO SUSTAIN AN ISLAND Ensuring power to an island community takes the commitment of a strong company and the most reliable equipment available. Such is the case with the renowned vacation destination, the island of Mustique, located 32.2 kilometers (20 miles) south of St. Vincent in the Grenadine Islands. The approximately 5.7-square-kilometer (2.2-square-mile) island is powered by four Cat 3516 generator sets, one C175-16 generator set and one C175-20 generator set. For more than 40 years, the Mustique Company has used Cat generator sets to provide power services.

“The C175 is extremely efficient in terms of fuel and all technical parameters are acceptable. Overall, we are very pleased with its performance. It has replaced the 3516 generator sets well and is helping us generate revenue.” – Justin Providence, technical manager at Mustique Company Today, the C175-16 runs continuously, providing the island with 1.3 to 2 MW of power. The island’s peak power need of 3.3 MW is met with the addition of one of the 3516 generator sets. Generally, the two 3516 generator sets are used during routine maintenance and serve as standby u
