Key Benefits

  • Turbocharged induction with water cooling keeps charge temperature under control in continuous duty.
  • Published fuel consumption of 206 L/hr makes running cost predictable.
  • Output 400/230V at 50HZ as supplied, matched at the factory.
  • Backed by a written warranty of one year or 1000 hours, whichever comes first
  • Genuine and OEM options quoted side by side so the budget decides, not the catalogue

Application Scenarios

Who It Is For

  • Hospitals, data centres and office buildings with critical loads

  • Contractors supplying rental power packages

Problems It Solves

  • An outage costs more per hour than the set itself.

How It Compares

Compared with What to consider
A rebuilt or used engine of the same ratingA rebuilt unit may show the same 640 kW (967 HP) on paper, but its running history is unknown and the warranty rarely covers the whole engine.
A larger engine in the same KTA38 rangeMoving up a frame size adds weight, envelope and fuel burn; specify the next size up only if the duty cycle really needs the headroom.
A non-Cummins engine of similar outputParts and service for Cummins families are available in most markets, which matters more over ten years than the purchase price on day one.
