Engine Design
- Engine design built on G3500 proven reliability and durability
- Ability to burn a wide spectrum of gaseous fuels
- Robust diesel strength design prolongs life and lowers owning and operating costs
- Broad operating speed range at lower site air densities (high altitude/hot ambient temperatures)
- Higher power density improves fleet management
- Quality engine diagnostics
- Detonation-sensitive timing control for individual cylinders
Emissions
- When configured with customer-supplied air fuel ratio control and three-way catalyst, the engine is capable of meeting NSPS and non-attainment area emissions levels.
Advanced Digital Engine Management
- ADEM A4 engine management system integrates speed control, air/fuel ratio control, and ignition/detonation controls into a complete engine management system. ADEM A4 has improved: user interface, display system, shutdown controls, and system diagnostics.
Full Range of Attachments
- Large variety of factory-installed engine attachments reduces packaging time
Testing
- Every engine is full-load tested to ensure proper engine performance.
Gas Engine Rating Pro
- GERP is a web-based program designed to provide site performance capabilities for Cat® natural gas engines for the gas compression industry. GERP provides engine data for your site's altitude, ambient temperature, fuel, engine coolant heat rejection, performance data, installation drawings, spec sheets, and pump curves.
