NEW CAT G3520K NATURAL GAS GENERATOR SET: A Robust Solution for CHP and Continuous Power

Our customers expect reliable and fast power, and the new G3520K natural gas generator set meets these demands even in tough conditions. The G3520K provides optimal performance in extreme temperatures and at high altitudes, making it an ideal choice for prime or continuous power applications and lowering the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) over the generator set’s entire lifecycle. Versatile and durable, it meets the key needs of engineers, electrical contractors, facility managers, utility managers, and many others.

The G3520K offers excellent performance in Combined Heat and Power (CHP) applications, achieving up to 90% overall efficiency. This helps customers meet their greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction goals while lowering fuel costs. It has an enhanced ability to handle sudden power surges, making it a very good solution for microgrid applications. The G3520K starts faster, accepts larger loads, and reaches full power 40% faster than previous models. All of this maximizes efficiency and minimizes costs.

If customers need to deliver power to off-grid locations, the G3520K handles extreme ambient temperatures and high altitudes with ease. Grid-connected customers can gain additional economic benefits by using it to avoid peak energy charges and potentially generate revenue by participating in utility-run demand response programs.

The G3520K is the right choice for any continuous power application, regardless of location or climate. Heat, high altitudes, urban areas, or off-grid locations – wherever you are, it will meet all your energy needs.

Key Advantages of the G3520K Generator Set:

• EFFICIENCY: Each generator set in the innovative G3500K series is optimized for cogeneration applications, with an overall efficiency of up to 90%. It also provides best-in-class fuel economy, significantly lowering total operating costs.

• FAST LOAD ACCEPTANCE: The G3520K starts faster, handles larger loads, and reaches 100% power 40% faster than the previous generation, making it ideal for continuous operation.

• ADVANCED CONTROLS FOR POWER OPTIMIZATION: The G3500K series maximizes the benefits of the Cat Energy Control System (ECS), a new suite of integrated, connected, and scalable controllers. ECS allows customers to manage energy sources from a single generator set to cohesive, comprehensive microgrid solutions that optimize multiple power-generating assets for resilience, emissions reduction, and lower costs.

• HIGH PERFORMANCE AT HIGH ALTITUDES AND AMBIENT TEMPERATURES: The G3520K can operate in challenging conditions without derating, demonstrating improved performance at high altitudes and in higher ambient temperatures compared to previous models in this power range.

Additional Advantages of the G3500K Series Generator Set:

• Each generator set in the innovative G3500K series is designed to provide best-in-class fuel economy and durability, significantly lowering the Total Cost of Ownership.
• The generator sets are also designed to maximize the benefits of the Cat Energy Control System (ECS), allowing customers to more easily adapt to the changing energy market and make the most of their existing energy assets.
