Cat adds nine generator sets

Caterpillar announced the launch of nine GC diesel generator sets that extend the upper range of its power solutions with models suitable for medium- to large-sized stationary standby applications.

The nine new models now available include three models from 1250 to 1500 kVA for 50 Hz applications globally, three models from 800 to 1250 kW for 60 Hz applications in North America, and three models from 800 to 1250 kW for 60 Hz applications outside North America.

Primarily targeted at the global electrical contractor market, Cat GC generator sets are engineered to simplify the specification process and substantially reduce quotation and delivery times while helping to meet tight budget requirements. Select models with commonly specified power outputs and configurations are stocked at larger Cat dealer locations for immediate delivery.

Caterpillar extends range of Cat GC diesel generator sets up to 1250 kW and 1500 kVA by adding nine power nodes.

“The positive market response of electrical contractors and other customers to our Cat GC models validates the performance, value and convenience that these generator sets deliver,” said Jaime Mineart, general manager for Caterpillar Electric Power. “By extending the Cat GC lineup with nine new power nodes, we are further expanding the suitability of these dependable, competitive power solutions to additional medium- to large-sized standby applications.”

Powered by Cat engines, Cat GC generator sets are designed for an extensive range of standby applications, such as health clinics, manufacturing, agriculture facilities, municipal infrastructure, wastewater treatment plants and other utilities, commercial enterprises, and office buildings.
