Features
OEM engine matching
Nine engine series matched to the same alternator and controller platform, so a brand swap never changes the rest of the set.
100% load-bank tested
Every set runs 0 / 50 / 75 / 100% before dispatch. Report and video ship with the machine.
Built for the grid you have
50 Hz and 60 Hz windings, any standard voltage, DER1/DER2 or DSE controllers to match your site.
Destination-ready
SONCAP, SASO, GOST/EAC and COC/PVoC documentation prepared before the container is sealed.
What your site takes away from the nameplate.
Hot, thin air carries less oxygen, so a set makes less power than the catalogue figure. This table is a planning guide for sizing, not a substitute for the derate curve in the formal datasheet.
| Sea level to 500 m | 1.00 |
|---|---|
| 1,000 m | 0.965 |
| 1,500 m | 0.948 |
| 2,000 m | 0.93 |
| 3,000 m | 0.895 |
Worked example
- A set rated 500 kW prime at reference conditions.
- Site at 1,500 m altitude and 45 °C ambient.
- Altitude factor 0.948, ambient factor 0.99.
- Usable output is about 500 x 0.948 x 0.99, or 469 kW.
469 kW usable, against a 500 kW nameplate.
Full derating tables and site sizingPrime, standby or continuous. The label changes the price.
The same machine carries three different numbers depending on which rating you buy. Sizing to the wrong one is the most expensive mistake in a generator project, so here is the definition we quote against.
Rated output available for the duration of a mains outage, with a limited annual running hour allowance. No overload capability. The cheapest rating, and the right one for backup only.
Rated output available continuously under varying load, with a 10% overload permitted for one hour in twelve. This is the rating most industrial and mining sites should buy.
Rated output available for unlimited hours at a constant load. No overload capability. Required where the set is the only source of power rather than a backup.
ISO 8528-1 defines the three ratings above. Reference conditions are 25 °C ambient, 100 m altitude and 30% relative humidity. Every value we publish is stated at those conditions unless the row says otherwise.
What arrives in the container besides the set.
Every unit ships with the documents below, prepared against its own serial number, plus whichever destination certificate your market requires.

- 01Commercial invoice and packing list
- 02Bill of lading or airway bill
- 03Certificate of origin (Form E / FTA as applicable)
- 04Signed load-bank test report with unit serial number
- 05Operation and maintenance manual
- 06Electrical schematic and control wiring diagram
- 07Spare parts list keyed to the unit serial number
- 08Warranty certificate
