WALT POWER delivered a 600kW / 750kVA Prime Power Cummins diesel generator set to Bangladesh. The generator was configured for 400V, 50Hz, three-phase power and equipped with a WALT brushless alternator, SmartGen controller, and a dual fuel tank arrangement.
For a generator of this capacity, we pay particular attention to the electrical configuration, fuel supply arrangement, and installation requirements. These details are important when supplying industrial diesel generators for overseas projects.
Main Specifications of the 600kW Cummins Generator
| Specification | Details |
|---|---|
| Generator Model | WGP-C750 |
| Prime Power (PRP) | 600kW / 750kVA |
| Voltage | 400V |
| Frequency | 50Hz |
| Phase | Three-phase |
| Diesel Engine | Cummins |
| Alternator | WALT brushless alternator with AVR |
| Controller | SmartGen automatic control module |
| Engine Governor | Electronic |
| Fuel Tank Configuration | Integrated base fuel tank designed for 8 hours of operation, plus a 1000L independent fuel tank |
| Warranty | 12 months |
The generator is rated at 600kW / 750kVA Prime Power (PRP) at a power factor of 0.8.
Prime Power is intended for applications involving variable electrical loads, subject to the operating conditions and limitations specified by the engine manufacturer.
When comparing industrial diesel generators, buyers should check the stated power rating rather than comparing kVA figures alone. A generator rated at 750kVA Prime Power is not necessarily equivalent to another generator advertised at 750kVA Standby Power.
Fuel Tank Configuration: Integrated Base Tank and 1000L External Tank
One important feature of this generator was its fuel tank arrangement.
The unit was supplied with an integrated base fuel tank designed for approximately 8 hours of operation under the specified conditions, together with a separate 1000L fuel tank.
For industrial generator projects, the fuel supply arrangement deserves as much attention as the generator's rated output.
An integrated base tank provides a compact fuel storage solution, while an independent tank can provide additional fuel storage capacity.
However, the total operating time cannot be determined simply by adding the two tank capacities together. Actual runtime depends on the generator load, engine fuel consumption, usable fuel volume, and how the tanks are connected.
At WALT POWER, we recommend confirming the expected daily operating hours and fuel supply requirements before selecting a generator's fuel tank configuration.
Engineering Considerations for a 600kW / 750kVA Diesel Generator
A 600kW Cummins generator is a substantial industrial power unit. Selecting the correct output capacity is only part of the process.
For projects in Bangladesh and other markets with demanding operating conditions, we recommend checking several practical factors before confirming an order.
1. Electrical Load and Starting Requirements
The generator must be selected according to the actual electrical load, including the starting requirements of large motors, pumps, compressors, and other equipment.
A 600kW generator may be suitable for a particular installation based on its running load, but motor starting and transient load acceptance must also be evaluated.
For projects with substantial motor loads, we recommend providing the motor ratings, starting methods, and expected starting sequence before finalizing the generator capacity.
2. Ambient Temperature and Ventilation
High ambient temperatures and inadequate ventilation can affect generator performance.
For enclosed generator installations, the cooling air inlet, hot air discharge, radiator arrangement, and required maintenance clearance should be reviewed during project planning.
Any high-temperature operating requirement should be confirmed against the engine and generator manufacturer's technical specifications.
We do not recommend assuming that a generator will deliver its full rated output under every ambient temperature or installation condition without checking the applicable derating requirements.
3. Fuel Supply and Maintenance Access
For generators equipped with an external fuel tank, the fuel piping arrangement and tank installation should be considered alongside local safety requirements.
Adequate maintenance access is also important for servicing the engine, alternator, cooling system, and control equipment.
These are general engineering considerations for installations of this size, rather than a description of the customer's completed site installation.
Quality Testing and After-Sales Support
At WALT POWER, generator specifications and testing arrangements are reviewed according to the confirmed order requirements.
Before shipment, we can provide generator testing documentation, including load test results and testing videos, according to the agreed inspection scope.
For overseas customers, we also provide remote technical support to assist with generator operation and troubleshooting.
This 600kW Cummins generator was supplied with a 12-month warranty.
