Cummins Gas Generator Sets In The 60 Hz Market




Cummins Inc. (NYSE: CMI) has announced the launch of a new upgraded 60 Hz natural gas generator set, powered by an 18-cylinder multi-turbo natural gas engine, as part of its 91-liter gas product range. The new model series offers higher power up to 2,000 kW at low emissions down to 0.5g/hp-h NOx without aftertreatment, in addition to meeting the transient requirements of ISO 8528-5 G1.

The QSV91 gas series minimizes voltage, frequency deviation and operational time-to-recover as well as achieving 100 percent load shed without shutdown. The new series has been developed to function in extreme environments and is capable of operating in ambient temperatures of up to 131°F and at 4,921 feet above sea level, making it suitable for a wide range of industries and applications. The series can function in continuous and standby power mode at 60 Hz through the use of a single generator set rated 1.54 MWe to 2 MWe. These features will make it a preferred choice for isolated locations and off-grid applications, indeed anywhere a rugged and robust power solution is needed.

The upgraded series also offers fuel flexibility, being able to produce electricity from pipeline natural gas or other alternative gaseous fuels such as oilfield gas with low methane numbers. The new product series has electrical efficiency of up to 38.3 percent and offers a wide methane number operating range for low methane number fuels down to 40 MN.

Peter Schroeck, General Sales Manager for Cummins North and Central America, said, We have invested in the development of the new QSV91 gas series to ensure strong product performance, application flexibility, fuel flexibility, low emissions and robust load handling. The multi-turbo design provides optimal transient response as well as high altitude and ambient temperature capability. It offers superior performance and efficiency, providing dependable power to satisfy a wide range of operational and environmental requirements. Balancing key technologies allows us to develop the best solution for our customers.

The Cummins QSV91 gas series are already proven in a wide variety of applications across the world. The introduction of the upgraded QSV91 series builds on the continuing success of Cummins gas generator sets in the 60 Hz market, providing more robustness and flexibility.

How to Read Alarm Codes From SmartGen Genset Controller

Auto Module Control Panel is the configuration for nobody on duty controlling generators. This kind of panel adopts auto module control system, with large LCD display to show the menu, such as SmartGen controller. Features:   1. SmartGen 6110 can receive remote output signal from ATS and realize auto start and stop of generators. 2. SmartGen 6310 can realize all functions of 6110, add RS232 interface which can communicate with PC to realize remote operation.  3. SmartGen 6410 Auto Mains Failure controller, can realize all functions of 6310, furthermore can detect  ATS and control directly. The alarm of diesel generator controller is not the amount of stop alarm, which does not affect the normal operation of diesel generator. When the alarm occurs, the unit will not stop, and when the alarm conditions do not exist, the amount of warning will automatically disappear.  Today Starlight manufacturer mainly shares alarm codes for diesel generato...

How Do You Check Diesel Consumption In The Diesel Generator Set?

  Diesel generator sets   are crucial assets in various industries, providing backup power during outages or serving as primary power sources in remote locations. With fuel costs being a significant operational expense, monitoring diesel consumption becomes essential for efficiency and cost-effectiveness. Here's a comprehensive guide on how to effectively check diesel consumption in a generator set. Understanding Diesel Consumption Metrics Before delving into the monitoring process, it's crucial to grasp the key metrics associated with diesel consumption: Fuel Consumption Rate: This indicates the rate at which diesel is being consumed by the generator set, typically measured in liters per hour (L/hr) or gallons per hour (GPH). Load Factor: The percentage of the generator's maximum capacity being utilized at any given time. It directly influences fuel consumption, with higher loads resulting in increased fuel usage. Fuel Efficiency: A measure of how effectively the generator...
