Cummins 1500 kW Standby Diesel Generator- 277/480 V, Used Genset

1500 kW Cummins diesel generator set being load bank tested. 2008, 277/480 Volt standby power with only 377 Hours Since New!

[@woodstockenvy4666]

The most beautiful sound on the planet, .. during an outage.

[@theroadrunner556]

Exactly. It gives me comfort knowing that life can go on as normal, even during an extended outage.

I want one ! I have absolutely no use for but I still want one, I would fire it up on Sunday mornings

[@ianboard544]

What you really want is one of the EMD 2 strokes - turbo and/or supercharged. Used in locomotives and tugboats. The sound - pure music.

[@TehMG]

@Att Att Virtually all medium to large size diesel generator sets these days have turbochargers. It allows getting more power from a physically smaller engine, and also has some efficiency benefits. Boost is proportional to the load on the generator, the more load there is, the more fuel is injected, resulting in more exhaust pressure, which spools up the turbo, creating more boost pressure.

[@creazychannel]

Lol!

[@valuedhumanoid6574]

I did some contracting work in a Cummins facility and saw their backup generator room. They have something like 10 of these that kick on at once. It's fucking impressive. When the power company gets over 15 cents per kwh they can produce their own power with these cheaper. The whole friggin' plant runs on these.

[@theblackcurrant2529]

True. They’ll even invite big customers over and flip the factory from the grid to generators to show off!

[@KrugerVideos]

Want to know more :D hit me up man, i would go to US just to see this :D

[@ramade9040]

Gotta love the exhaust clag getting pulled into the fan on startup!

[@Nexus-6]

I love the smell of diesel in the morning. You know, one time we had a power outage, for 12 hours. When it was all over, I walked up. We didn't find one of 'em, not one stinkin' solar panel. The smell, you know that diesel exhaust smell? The whole hill. Smelled like... power.

[@NenadKralj]

Yup, you are 💯 right, I feel you 😎👍

[@LegoWormNoah101]

I'm probably the only one who wants to hear this thing in idling RPM.

[@vacuumboy6.0]

Nope

[@nealmaha7889]

Diesels run more efficient not just at higher revs but also under load. Idling in a motor like this will cause wetstacking. Not to mention gen wont function.

[@mrdiesel6303]

If the tech had have shut it off properly using the start/stop button and not the on off switch it would have idled for two minutes at 750 rpm before shutting off to allow the turbos to cool/slow down.

Thank you for bringing us this excellent and very informative video presentation which is very much appreciated by the people. The sound of this is magnificent, it looks good and is very useful for organisations that rely on a constant supply of electricity such as hospitals and correctional facilities. The community would always feel confident knowing that they have such an excellent piece of machinery, especially with the reputation for reliability that Cummins diesel engines have. You are to be congratulated for providing us with this video.

[@theimaginator16]

The sound it makes when put under load is glorious!

[@harrisonsaari5550]

The hospital across the street from my old apt had 2 of these, maybe bigger. One power failure fired them up. Impressive and momentarily scary.

[@GeneratorSource]

Good to hear they worked as intended! Losing power at a hospital is always a scary situation, which is why they rely on backup generators to keep them up and running.

[@REWYRED]

Is it common on a Cummins for the crankcase vent to be just open to atmosphere but located UNDER the unit? Ours at work were and it wound up coating everything from that point up to and including the radiator with an oily goo....

[@danielhurley2894]

Yes, this is a common configuration for diesel generator sets "as shipped" from the factory. The solution is to purchase and install either a "crankvent" system which is pretty much a big can with metal filtration to catch the oil mist (which you dump out periodically), or install a system which captures the mist from the crankcase vent hose, filters it, and then puts the filtered air back into the engine air intake system - - while draining the captured oil back into the engine sump. The first system is pretty cheap (a few hundred dollars), the second is pretty expensive (many thousands). The REALLY cheap option is to extend the crankcase vent tube with long rubber hosing to the outside of the building and let it vent to the outside.

[@Macintoshiba]

Look at the size of that Radiator!!

Serious heavy industrial use for giant equipment with the 480V leg to leg and 277V leg to neutral only. The company that uses this would also need a separate 1ph 110V/220V to run small machines, lighting and office equipment. This is under the pretext that this is used in the event of a power failure.

that Cummins big machine 1500kW genset, engine power will be like 1600-1700kW, the fuel consumption will be about 100+ US Gal per hour in full capacity. differernt models designed for different applications, you want 24/7, then choose the right model, generally a genset is capable for 24/7 running at 70-90% of its rated power, depends on engines
