Performance Characteristics
Higher Efficiency
Caterpillar gas generators deliver up to 44.6% electrical efficiency while recovering more heat and reducing carbon emissions.
Lower Operating Costs
Caterpillar gas generators use up to 30%-50% less lubricant than other brands, saving you money.
Smaller Footprint
CG takes up 50% less space than similar systems, and smaller space means lower installation costs.
High Availability
The use of pre-combusted spark plugs for particle-free combustion increases maintenance cycles and increases productivity, which in turn increases annual run time.
System Control
Control the entire system with Caterpillar's Cat Total Electronic Management System, including auxiliary equipment such as engine, heat recovery module, exhaust aftertreatment and fuel treatment system for overall system monitoring.
Flexible Fuel Use
Our gas mixing technology and comprehensive electronic management system are available for a wide range of gas applications.
