Cummins launches new diesel genset
01 September 2016
Cummins Power Generation has introduced the C2750D5B generator set featuring the new QSK60-G22 engine as part of the efficient QSK60 Diesel Series, bringing more power using less fuel in a smaller footprint.
Having previously only been available in a 60 Hz version, the new 50 Hz generator is pushing the Cummins advantage in global markets — as the only manufacturer able to deliver 2,750 kVA of power utilising the powerful and more fuel-efficient 60-litre engine, according to a spokesman for Cummins Power Generation.
“Other generator set manufacturers in this range use engines that are up to 50 per cent larger in engine displacement, making the QSK60 the most cost-effective and most efficient power generating solution in its class,” says Cody Albertus, Cummins Power Generation product management leader.
“This latest addition to our product portfolio builds on Cummins Power Generation’s position as a market leader in this industry. When you need a generator set that produces more power and consumes less fuel in a smaller footprint, this product will not disappoint,” he remarks.
Ideal for mission-critical applications that require quick, responsive and reliable emergency power – such as data centres, hospitals, water treatment plants, campuses, manufacturing facilities and large retail and recreational sites – the C2750D5B provides the highest level of reliability as all the parts are designed, tested and supported to work together in this specific configuration, he claims.
“At Cummins we call this The Power of One, where all the major components – engine, alternator, transfer switch and control system – are engineered and manufactured by a single supplier to work seamlessly together for the life of the product,” he adds.
“The introduction of the C2750D5B also builds on the outstanding success of equivalent models in the 60 Hz market and provides unprecedented levels of power density due to its smaller footprint. With this high level of power, together with its performance and the reliability, the QSK60 Diesel Series gives peak performance and cost savings over the life of the system,” Albertus concludes.
