Description

Used Caterpillar G3516B SITA Natural Gas fueled 1400 KW induction generator sets. These units were part of a pilot program to evaluate the potential of converting natural gas electricity by connecting to the 25,000 volt three phase distribution system - Gensets and step-up transformer and switchgear included. The generator packages consist of the following units and components: Caterpillar G3516B natural gas generators built in 2003. Engine Power: 1818 HPFuel gas pressure: 1.5 - 5.0 psig Ignition System: Adem 3 Engine speed: 1800 rpm Min. methane number: 80 NOx emission level: 1.0 g/bhp-hr Fuel consumption: 6863 BTU/bhp-hr Extreme application, 14 inch inlet/outlet grade silencer, GT exhaust Crank case exhaust evacuator 24 bolt DC starters PLC based pre & post lube DC Block heaters Generator US Motors 1400 Kw, 4160 volt induction generator, 3 phase, 60 hz Complete with sleeve bearings Insulation: Class F Class B temperature rise, (80 Deg. C. Rise for normal output) Heaters: 2 RTDs per phase: Cooler: 40 deg. C 480 volt, 3 phase, TEFC electric motor low noise fan tip blades induced draft with vertical exhaust complete with man-door access. Skid enclosure: sound attenuated building, 30% perf liner mineral wood sound insulation. 16 feet W x 32 feet L x 12 feet H, complete with a acoustically treated air intakes, air exhaust, cooler exhaust. Skid base 55 feet long. Generators all have independent high voltage switch gear room isolated from engine generator room. Devices: Allen Bradley PLC processor SLC500 Fuel flow computer meter HMI; touch screen, color display Rosemount temperature transmitters Radio modem, 330-512 Switchgear: 4160 volt, distribution line up, includes, utility motor disconnect, station service TX feed, Transition cell, soft starter, and cap bank with controls. Charger battery, 120v DC/AC Converter DC/DC 12 volt to 24 volt.10,000 hoursApproximately 1/3 of the energy contained in the fuel combusted in the facility will be converted to electric power and the remaining 2/3 of the energy will be lost in the form of heat in the exhaust gas and radiators. A portion of this lost energy maybe recovered to heat other on-site or nearby processes. CRMC estimates that approximately 5.6 MMBtu/hour (LHV) can be recovered in the form of thermal energy.
