2007 CAT 3516C 2MW Diesel Generator Set

This 2007 Caterpillar 3516C diesel generator set is a large-frame, ultra-high-capacity power system designed for utility, data center, and heavy industrial standby and prime power applications. The unit is rated 2,000 kW standby and 1,825 kW prime at 60 Hz, operating at 1,800 RPM, and produces 277/480V, three-phase power. With only 237 original operating hours, this generator represents an excellent opportunity to acquire a very low-hour megawatt-class Caterpillar package.

The generator is powered by the proven CAT 3516C turbocharged and aftercooled diesel engine and is equipped with a Caterpillar EMCP 3.3 digital control panel providing full system monitoring, diagnostics, and protective shutdowns. Electrical output is delivered through a 3,000-amp main circuit breaker.

This unit is housed in a sound-attenuated enclosure and mounted on a heavy-duty UL-2085-rated base fuel tank, supporting outdoor stationary installation and enhanced fire protection. The package includes electric start, jacket water heater, charging alternator, full radiator cooling system, and associated standby support equipment. A Cat Advantage Warranty for standby applications may be added at additional cost.

With its extremely low hours, large fuel capacity, and industrial Caterpillar platform, this 3516C generator is well-suited for data centers, utilities, mining, and large manufacturing facilities requiring dependable multi-megawatt standby or prime power.
