Description

CATERPILLAR G3516H Gas Generator Set – 1250 kW Prime - 2023

The CATERPILLAR G3516H Gas Generator Set, manufactured in 2023, is a premium high-efficiency natural gas power solution designed for continuous-duty, prime, and standby power generation. Powered by Caterpillar’s advanced G3516H V16 turbocharged and aftercooled engine, this genset delivers up to 1250 kW of prime output at 1500 RPM, with standby capabilities of 1375 kW and continuous operation at 1125 kW.

Engineered for flexibility and reliability, the G3516H operates on natural gas, including variable gas qualities such as methane or biogas, making it suitable for a wide range of industrial, utility, and distributed energy applications. It features an electronic governor for precise speed regulation, load sharing, and grid synchronization, while the closed-loop water cooling system ensures stable operation across all loads.

The genset’s thermal efficiency ranges from 35% to 38%, with a heat rate of approximately 9300–9800 Btu/kWh, and fuel consumption at full load of just 0.41 m³/kWh. The CAT SR4 alternator (or equivalent) delivers high-quality voltage output, configurable at 400V, 480V, or 600V, and supports both 50 Hz and 60 Hz operation.

Ideal for continuous industrial processes, critical infrastructure, and distributed power, the G3516H is protected with advanced systems for overload, short-circuit, and thermal protection, ensuring long service life and operational safety.
