Generator set,diesel,water cool,500kVA**

General Description:
Diesel driven generator set, water cooled, and skid mounted, capable of delivering up to 500kVA

Technical Specifications:
General: A complete diesel generator set including the diesel engine, alternator, control panel, automatic starting equipment, fuel tank and all other accessories for autonomous operation

Rated Power:
500 kVA
The use of the generator as prime or stand-by should be clearly stated by the field office when the set is requested

Engine:
Heavy duty diesel engine, with the following characteristics:
Water-cooled with fresh water loop and tropical radiator
Synchronous speed: Up to 1500rpm
Mechanical speed governor
Heavy duty air cartridge filter
Cartridge oil filter
External fuel filter
Industrial silencer
Exhaust with suitable flexible piping
Automatic electric starter including batteries, leads and automatic battery charging equipment

Fuel Tank:
Fuel tank of suitable construction with capacity sufficient to run the generator set continuously for 8 hours at the rated capacity.
Suitable piping should be provided for connecting the tank to the engine as well as for filling the tank. Fuel level indicator should be placed conveniently on the panel board

Alternator:
Synchronous and brushless automatic fast voltage regulator, maintaining the output within 2% under normal conditions, screen protected
CEE Sockets: one 3 pole and one 5 pole

Panel Board:
Made of steel sheets of appropriate thickness subjected to anti-oxidizing treatment and covered with epoxy resin with suitable protection factor:

Automatic main circuit breaker
Change over switch with positions for "MAINS" - "OFF" - "GENERATOR"
Key to start and stop the unit
Emergency stop button
Set-point for speed/governor control
Set-point for voltage control
Meters for Volts (with selector switch to show phases to zero, and phase to phase voltages), amperes (three meters or with selector switch to show current in all three phases), frequency, running hours counter. Acoustic and visible alarms for critical parameters including high engine temperature low oil pressure and low fuel should be provided

Protection:
The generator set should be equipped with automatic shutdown equipment if fatal parameters are exceeded including low oil pressure, high engine temperature and over-speed

Mounting:
The engine and the alternator should be connected with a heavy-duty elastic coupling and should be mounted on a common rigid base frame with anti-vibration dampers and lifting eyes flexible for transportation engine; alternator and panel should be one integrated unit mounted on skids

Connection to ground:
The generator is supplied with connection to ground system comprising low resistance rod(s), terminals, cables, etc

Environmental conditions:
The rated power of the generator is based on the following environmental conditions (the country office should provide the actual local conditions to enable the calculation of de-rating that fits those local conditions):

Altitude at 150m above sea level
Average yearly temperature 30°C
Average 24 hours temperature 40°C
Minimum temperature -10°C
Maximum operating temperature 55°C
Dust storms are expected

Accessories:
The following accessories are supplied with the generating set:

Operation and maintenance manuals (full workshop documentation for both engine and alternator), spare parts catalogues, drawings and information concerning the foundation, erection requirements, electrical connections to load and earth, etc. all in English. (Other languages could be provided as an option against additional cost.) The engine coolant/antifreeze liquid is for the first installation. Tools kit including pipe spanners for injectors etc.
Spare parts are for 2000 hours of operation within two years (including oil and air filter cartridges and at least two full sets of v-belts and a full set of cylinder head gaskets). Further included is a full set of replacement switches/sensors for detection of fatal parameters (low oil pressure, high engine temperature, belt failure, etc)

Options:
The following are available as optional items (if needed each one can be requested by the country office):

Automatic Mains Failure (AMF)
The generator set mounted in a sound attenuated and weather protective canopy to reduce the noise level down to 70dB(A) at a distance of 7 metres
Trailer mounting
Manuals in languages other than English

Packaging and labelling:
The unit is packed in strong sea-worthy wooden box
