INGERSOLL RAND
Ingersoll Rand supplies 20 kVA to 600 kVA diesel gensets. Its business comes from almost all sectors that require electrical power. Business fluctuates from one sector to another depending on the general economy. For example, the construction industry has traditionally lead growth in the GCC.
However, the slowdown due to the global economic crisis has lead to a resurgence in renting as the preferred method of acquiring gensets for the construction sector.
KIRLOSKAR
Kirloskar’s 250 kVA genset is widely used at construction sites to power Portacabins, labour camps and various other equipment and accessories required on-site. Over 50 000 Kirloskar green gensets are manufactured annually, and all are ISO 9001/9002 accredited. Kirloskar Middle East FZE is located in Ajman, from where it supports the entire region. Kirloskar has a substantial share and a presence in the engine and diesel genset segment in the GCC.
MANLIFT GROUP
Manlift Group distributes a large fleet of gensets built specifically for harsh conditions and extreme temperatures. These feature large internal fuel tanks for 24 hour operation. They range from 30 kVA to 1 250 kVA. The company supplies the UAE and Qatar, and has worked on the Dubai Metro, Palm Jumeirah, Dubai Festival City, Motor City, Al Raha Beach and Yas Island.

CAT genset for CHP applications
Caterpillar has announced the availability of the G3512E advanced natural-gas-fuelled genset, designed for maximum efficiency in extended-duty distributed generation and combined heat and power (CHP) applications.
Driven by a Cat electronically-controlled, lean-burn gaseous-fueled reciprocating engine, the G3512E genset has been designed to offer a high power density and excellent fuel efficiency, while maintaining tight NOx control. It provides flexibility to operate on pipeline natural gas with a wide range of methane numbers without sacrificing efficiency and performance, and delivers up to 41.7% ISO electrical efficiency without water pumps.
The Cat G3512E genset operates at 50 Hz/1500 rpm with the Miller combustion cycle, is rated at 1 000 ekW, and has a standard NOx emissions rating of 500 mg/NM3 at a separate circuit aftercooler (SCAC) inlet water temperature of 54˚C. It is built on a heavy-duty, diesel-based platform and uses an advanced camshaft and turbocharger design to achieve high mechanical efficiency. It additionally features an open combustion chamber design, which allows for a low-pressure fuel system of 10 to 35 kPa.
A standard feature is a digital microprocessor gas engine control module that automatically and precisely regulates ignition, engine governing and air/fuel ratio for optimum fuel economy and stringent NOx control. Its patent-pending air/fuel ratio control monitors charge air density and maintains NOx within tight tolerances under a variety of ambient and load conditions.
It features an individual-cylinder detonation sensing and timing control, with a prechamber-type spark plug design for extended service life without adjustment. Additional functionality includes an emergency stop fuel-purge cycle and programmable protective relaying functions.
The genset is easily tailored to specific applications. Additional features include exhaust options, alarm and remote annunciator modules and battery chargers. It is also available with an optional 250 mg/NM3 NOx emissions setting and 54˚C SCAC temperature rating.
