The Perkins® 5016AC-E61TRG is a noncertified configuration equivalent to EU Stage II 130≤ P ≤ 560 kW, China Nonroad Stage III >560 kW and U.S. EPA Tier 2. It has been designed to offer reliable power for all electric power applications, including standby, prime, critical and data centres.
Engineered and built specifically for the power generation industry, the Perkins® 5000 Series is a power-packed engine range designed to be dependable while offering versatility and lower emissions.
| Gross Mechanical Output | 1249-2205 kW |
| Typical Electrical Output | 1400-2500 kVA (1120-2000 kWe) |
| Emissions | Noncertified configuration that is equivalent to EU Stage II, China Nonroad Stage III and U.S. EPA Tier 2 |
The 5000 Series delivers productivity with excellent load acceptance, meeting NFPA110 and ISO standards. Built for reliability and high-altitude performance, it’s engineered for dependable power in any condition. Globally tested in extreme environments, it provides consistent performance when it matters most.
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.
Excellent oil consumption through dedicated piston, ring and liner assembly and low fuel consumption deliver minimised daily operating costs, with two-year oil and fuel service intervals.

| Prime Power | Unlimited hours usage with an average load factor of 80 percent of the published prime power over each 24 hour period. A 10 percent overload is available for one hour in every 12 hours operation. |
| Standby Power | Limited to 500 hours annual usage with an average load factor of 80 percent of the published standby power rating over each 24 hour period. Up to 300 hours of annual usage may be run continuously. No overload is permitted. |
| Continuous operating power (COP) | Unlimited hours usage with an average load factor of 100 percent of the published continuous operating power. No overload is permitted on continuous operating power. |
| Data centre power (DCP) | Power available for variable or continuous electrical loads in a data centre application. Up to 100 percent load factor of the published DCP power is permitted for unlimited time. An overload of 10 percent is permitted for one hour in every 12 hours of operation. No overload is permitted. DCP power definition relies on ISO8528-1 2018 standard to be followed by generator set manufacturer, and will support Tier I to Tier IV classifications of data centres as per UPTIME institute guidelines. |
| Limited-time running power (LTP) | Maximum of 500 hours annual usage with an average load factor of 100 percent of the published LTP power. |
| Baseload | Unlimited hours usage with an average load factor of 100 percent of the published continuous operating power. No overload is permitted on continuous operating power. |
