Engineered for the power generation market, the Perkins® 5000 Series is packed with features and the performance to match customer demands. Designed to supply electrical power when and where needed, whether to critical power applications, prime continuous or standby power, the 5000 Series has been optimised and tested to deliver cost-effective, reliable performance no matter the location or demand.
The 5000 Series engines have been designed from the ground up to deliver power when you need it. The power demands of critical applications like data centres and hospitals drove the development of a platform that is compliant with NFPA 110 Type 10 as well as G2 and G3 standards – enabling a fast ramp up to full load.
By leveraging a purpose-built core engine design that has been optimised to lower fuel consumption, the Perkins 5000 Series is refined using electronic fuel system and enhanced camshaft design to deliver greater power density with lower running costs.
Using a combination of optimised parts and performance criteria, the 5000 Series engine can operate for up to 750 hours or 2 years between oil services – delivering even lower operating costs.
The refined core engine architecture and improved sealing technology means the 5000 Series is capable of sustained performance, no matter the conditions. Having completed thousands of hours of validation testing, the 5000 Series is ready to meet your power needs.
For applications where real estate is at a premium, the 5000 Series engines offer a compact design that packs power into a smaller footprint. This makes them the ideal choice to optimise space at your installation.
When emergency standby power is essential to your day-to-day operations, you need an engine that’s ready to get the job done.
