Diesel powered generator sets remain the number–one choice for standby and emergency power systems, worldwide. Able to start and assume load in less than 10 seconds, and rated load in a single step, Cummins diesel generator sets are the epitome of rugged dependability and reliable mechanical and electrical performance. Diesel generators are also well suited to utility peaking plants, Distributed Generation (DG) facilities, peak shaving (or peak lopping), and power management at large commercial or industrial sites.
Features and Benefits:
As a mature technology, Cummins clean and modern diesel–powered generators offer these key benefits:
- Rapid product availability
- Proven reliability and low life–cycle costs
- High efficiency and operational flexibility
- High quality electrical performance
- Well–established service and fuel supply infrastructure
