 1. TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION GAS GENSET MODEL PG620B1

FG Wilson model PG620B1 gas generating set. Gross rated at 496 kW / 620 kVA at 0.8
pf. Voltage 400/230V, 3 Phase, Frequency 50 Hz, engine operating speed 1500 RPM.

GAS ENGINE.
Model : 4008 – 30TRS2
Manufacturer : PERKINS

Lean burn industrial natural gas, spark ignition, water cooled, 8 cylinder, four stroke
engine, controlled via Perkins, providing optimum control of the air/ gas mixture and
engine performances.

Core Engine
¾ High grade Cast iron featuring integral individual cylinder crankcase inspection
doors.
¾ Wet type liners, centrifugally cast (iron), plateau honed or quick ring bedding and
reduced oil consumption, individually replaceable
Single drop forged, precision ground steel crankshaft, surfaced hardened
and dynamically balanced.
Single camshaft, precision ground steel crankshaft, surfaced hardened (gas
carbonized), gear driven via crankshaft.
High grade cast iron individual cylinder heads, individually replaceable
valves, vale seats and valve guides – four valves per cylinder.
Deep bowl aluminum alloy piston with three-ring pack, gallery oil) cooled
piston
Split cap connecting rods, drop forged steel with multi-bolt fixing – shot
penned
Large capacity aluminum cast sump/ oil pan, with integral level indicator
and oil drain facility.

Air Intake System

¾ Medium duty, high capacity, paper element air filter complete with restriction
indicator
¾ Single radial high efficiency exhaust gas driven turbocharger, lagged turbine
outlet.
Exhaust System
¾ Cast iron, dry exhaust manifold
¾ Single exhaust outlet – horizontal outlet
¾ Exhaust manifold heat shields

Electrical System
¾ Air starter

Drive System
¾ Cast iron flywheel housing SAE ‘00’
¾ Cast iron flywheel SAE 18’
¾ Maintenance free viscous type torsion vibration damper(s)

Engine Management System/ Governing System

¾ Electronic governing system. Conforming to ISO 8528 Class G2
¾ Air/fuel (Lambda ratio control, maintaining constant NOx emission
¾ Optimized engine performance / emission control via a closed loop control system
¾ Digital based engine protection system monitoring:-
Low oil pressure
Over and under speed
Low Water level
High, low water & oil temperature
High charge water & exhaust temperature
Misfire, spit back protection
Knock detection for variation in gas quality
Engine over load
Oil pressure & temperature (per bank)
Engine speed RPM and Hours Run
Exhaust temperature, per bank (-per cylinder optional)
Jacket / Charge water temperature

Engine Mounting
¾ Front and rear feet mounted of the crankcase

Cooling system:
The engine will be complete with tropical capacity radiator or cooling the machine in
tropical ambient temperatures with electric driven blower type heavy duty cooling fan.
Heat Exchanger or Radiator core and fin design will take into account compensation for
possible ingress of dirt which would normally clog the fins.
¾ Pressurized fresh water jacket water cooling system
¾ Two stage air to water charge cooler, jacket/ secondary water-cooled
Alternator:
The alternator will be of brushless, self-exciting, self-regulating design
The alternator will be directly coupled to the engine and will include excitation system,
automatic voltage regulator
The excitation system will provide an exceptionally rapid response to load change and all
alternators are designed for high motor starting capability.
The fully sealed automatic voltage regulator maintains the voltage within the limits of ±
1.0% from no load to full load including cold to hot variations at any power factor
between 0.8 lagging and unity inclusive of a speed variation of 4.5%.
The alternator will be tropically insulated and windings will be impregnate with
thermosetting insulated varnish for use in tropical climates.
The rotor system is dynamically balanced to minimize vibration
Ample ventilation is provided by a shaft mounting centrifugal fan
A screen protected enclosure and drip-proof to IP23 is standard.

Coupling arrangement:
The engine and alternator will be directly coupled by means of an SAE flange so that
there is no possibility of misalignment being found after prolonged use. A flexible
coupling is used in all cases and the coupling is completely guarded for safety purposes.
The engine and alternator will be mounted as a whole on a heavy duty fabricated steel
base frame constructed from folded channel sections. Crane lifting arrangement is
included.

Gas/ Ignition System

Air/ fuel mixer with zero pressure regulator and mixture adjustment screw.
Metal braided flexible gas connection
Altronic 800 C Series ignition system with individual cylinder ignition
coils, spark plugs.
Variable timing electronic ignition system and wiring harness/ rail

Lubricating Oil System

Gear driven lubricating oil pump, externally mounted.
Full flow replaceable canister type oil filters
Shell and tube type oil cooler, jacket water-cooled

Anti-vibration mounting pads

The above mentioned base frame will be complete with anti-vibration mounting pads for
fixing between base frame and ground

Finish
The generator is thoroughly cleaned and primed with two coats of industrial prime and
finished in two cats industrial high gloss paint.
