Overview
The line of G3500 engines brings versatility, uptime, and low operating cost to your gas compression operation. They are equipped with ADEM A3 technology that enables highest performance and safety while maintaining low emissions. Ideal applications for G3500 engines include gas lift, gas gathering, and wellhead gas compression. The Cat G3516J gas engines are rated at 1029 bkW (1380 bhp) @ 1400 rpm and are NSPS site compliant capable with customer-provided air-fuel ratio control and aftertreatment.
Features at a Glance
- Engine Design
-
- Proven reliability and durability - Ability to burn a wide spectrum of gaseous fuels - Robust diesel strength design prolongs life and lowers owning and operating costs - Broad operating speed range
- Emissions
-
Meets U.S. EPA Spark Ignited Stationary NSPS Emissions for 2010
- Lean Burn Engine Technology
-
Lean-burn engines operate with large amounts of excess air. The excess air absorbs heat during combustion reducing the combustion temperature and pressure, greatly reducing levels of NOx. Lean-burn design also provides longer component life and excellent fuel consumption.
- Advanced Digital Engine Management
-
ADEM A3 control system providing integrated ignition, speed governing, protection, and controls, including detonation-sensitive variable ignition timing. ADEM A3 has improved: user interface, display system, shutdown controls, and system diagnostics.
- Ease of Operation
-
Side covers on block allow for inspection of internal components
- Full Range of Attachments
-
Large variety of factory-installed engine attachments reduces packaging time
- Testing
-
Every engine is full-load tested to ensure proper engine performance.
- Gas Engine Rating Pro
-
GERP is a web-based program designed to provide site performance capabilities for Cat® natural gas engines for the gas compression industry. GERP provides engine data for your site's altitude, ambient temperature, fuel, engine coolant heat rejection, performance data, installation drawings, spec sheets, and pump curves.
