Overview
The Perkins 2500 range of diesel engines provides you with output ratings of 455-624 kVA, catering for both your prime and standby power generation needs. The features and benefits of the 2000 Series ensure your generation needs are met. Flexible packaging of the 6 cylinder engines caters for the space you have available, and with mechanically operated unit fuel injectors, electronic control and carefully matched turbocharging, our 2500 range gives you performance and economy.
Variants certified against the requirements of EU Stage II/U.S. EPA Tier 2 emissions standards for non-road mobile machinery, powered by constant speed engines.
Specifications
| Gross Mechanical Output | 412-623 kWm |
| Typical Electrical Output | 455-687 kVA (364-550 kWe) |
| Emissions | EU 97/68/EC Stage II, EPA Tier 2 |
Benefits & Features
Easy to transport and install
Our 2500 range engines are easy to transport and install thanks to their exceptional power-to-weight ratios and compact size, and they provide you with excellent service access for ease of maintenance.
Engines in our ElectropaK 2500 range are delivered to you complete with radiator and air cleaner system already built on, enabling you to simply bolt the engine down, connect it up and start generating.Optimum economy
The mechanically operated unit fuel injectors, with electronic control and carefully matched turbocharging, mean you get excellent fuel atomisation and combustion with optimum economy and low emissions.
These engines give you reliable power, low oil usage and low wear rates. And with their high compression ratios, you can be assured of clean and rapid starting in all conditions.Specifications
