Short Description

Efficient Solar Taurus 60 industrial gas turbine rated at 5.6 MW, manufactured in 2012. Equipped with a dry low-NOx (DLN) combustion system, axial 14-stage compressor, and advanced digital controls. Ideal for power generation, CHP, and mechanical drive applications.

Description

SOLAR TAURUS 60 Gas Turbine – 5.6 MW, 2012, Low-NOx - 2012

The SOLAR TAURUS 60 by Solar Turbines (a Caterpillar Inc. subsidiary) is a robust, mid-sized industrial gas turbine designed for distributed power generation, combined heat and power (CHP), and mechanical drive applications. With a 5.6 MW electrical output and up to 35% thermal efficiency, this unit is a strong performer in environments where reliability, fuel flexibility, and emissions compliance are critical.

This 2012 model features a 14-stage axial compressor, single-stage power turbine, and a dry low-NOx (DLN) combustion system, ensuring reduced NOx emissions (<25 ppm @ 15% O₂) and low CO emissions (<50 ppm). It is compatible with natural gas, propane, or other gaseous fuels, and uses an air-cooled system to maintain operational efficiency across a wide temperature range.

The turbine is digitally controlled via TURBOMATCH®, offering intelligent remote monitoring, automatic start/stop, and diagnostic capabilities. It operates at 3,000 RPM (50 Hz) or 3,600 RPM (60 Hz), allowing flexibility for global installations. The integrated lubrication system, long maintenance intervals, and compact footprint (weighing ~16,000 kg) contribute to reduced operating costs and downtime.

Ideal for industrial power, oil and gas facilities, or grid-connected backup systems, this unit also supports grid synchronization and load sharing in multi-turbine environments.
