Overview
The Perkins® 5008AC-E30TAG has been designed to offer reliable power for all electric power applications, including standby, prime, critical applications market and data centres.
Engineered and built specifically for the power generation market, the Perkins® 5000 Series is a power-packed engine range built to be dependable, versatile and offer lower emissions to meet regulatory standards.
Emissions equivalent to U.S. EPA Tier 2.
Specifications
| Gross Mechanical Output | 650-1094 kW |
| Typical Electrical Output | 729-1250 kVA (583-1000 kWe) |
| Emissions | Equivalent to U.S. EPA Tier 2 |
Benefits & Features
Maximised productivity
The 5000 Series delivers maximised productivity through outstanding load acceptance, achieving NFPA110 Type 10 and ISO 8528-5 G2 and G3 performance class and deliver high altitude capability.
The engine build and performance have been designed from the ground up with ultimate productivity and dependability in mind, so customers can be confident that power will be available when required.
They have been tested around the world, in the harshest environments, to deliver performance, no matter the conditions.
Minimised daily operating costs
Excellent oil consumption through dedicated piston, ring and liner assembly and low fuel consumption deliver minimised daily operating costs.
Ease of integration and service accessibility
Design of core engine components mean the 5000 Series delivers more power, more quickly no matter the demands of the application or the environment in which it is placed.
A single point customer electronics connection supports ease of integration and service accessibility is provided from a single side with 500 hours or two year oil and fuel service interval whichever comes first.
