Pramac GDW370V/FS2 | 296kW Diesel Generator | Three-Phase | Volvo Engine
The Pramac GDW370V/FS2 is a professional industrial diesel generating set engineered for applications where reliable high-capacity three-phase power is essential.
At the heart of the generator is the Volvo TAD1342GE, a 12.8-litre six-cylinder turbocharged diesel engine operating at a low 1500rpm. The engine features electronic speed governing, water cooling and a 24V electric starting system.
The generator provides 370kVA / 296kW Emergency Standby Power and 350kVA / 280kW Prime Power, making it suitable for both emergency backup installations and extended operation under variable electrical loads.
An optional Data Centre Power configuration is also available, providing 350kVA / 280kW DCP output for suitable data centre applications.
Volvo Industrial Diesel Engine
The Volvo TAD1342GE combines strong power output with robust industrial construction and proven reliability.
Key engine characteristics include:
- 12,780cm³ / 12.8-litre displacement
- Six cylinders in-line
- Turbocharged aspiration
- Electronic speed governor
- Water-cooled design
- Stage II emissions level
- 24V electric starting system
- 36-litre oil capacity
- 44-litre coolant capacity
The engine develops up to 343kWm gross mechanical power in ESP operation and 313kWm in PRP and DCP operation.
Mecc Alte Alternator
Electrical generation is handled by the Mecc Alte ECO38 2L4 C brushless alternator.
The alternator provides a 370kVA standby rating at 27°C and a 350kVA continuous nominal rating at 40°C.
It offers approximately 93.5% efficiency at full load, Class H insulation, IP23 protection and approximately ±1% voltage tolerance.
Fuel Consumption & Runtime
Fuel consumption is approximately:
53.79 litres per hour at 75% Prime Power
70.73 litres per hour at 100% Prime Power
A range of optional fuel tanks is available with capacities from 500 litres up to 4,000 litres.
Depending on the selected configuration, approximate runtime at 75% PRP ranges from 9.30 hours to 74.36 hours.
Automatic Mains Failure Control
The optional ACP Automatic Control Panel provides Auto Mains Failure functionality for standby installations.
The system provides generator monitoring and protection, detailed event and performance logging, remote-control compatibility and optional I/O expansion.
Parallel Generator Operation
The optional MPP Modular Parallel Panel allows the GDW370V/FS2 to operate in parallel with other generating sets.
Up to 32 generator sets can be configured for parallel operation, making this model suitable for larger industrial installations, redundancy systems and load-sharing applications.
Open & Canopy Versions
The GDW370V/FS2 is available in both open-frame and weatherproof canopy configurations.
The canopy version uses galvanized sheet-steel construction and high-quality soundproofing materials to protect the generating set from demanding environmental conditions while reducing operating noise.
The standard canopy provides approximately:
- 97 dB(A) guaranteed sound power
- 78 dB(A) sound pressure at 1 metre
- 68 dB(A) sound pressure at 7 metres
An Extra Silent canopy is also available with a guaranteed sound power level of approximately 94 dB(A).
Typical Applications
The Pramac GDW370V/FS2 is suitable for industrial facilities, factories, warehouses, commercial buildings, construction projects, data centres, utilities, infrastructure, agriculture, emergency standby systems and prime power installations.
With its combination of Volvo engine technology, Mecc Alte alternator performance and 296kW standby output, the GDW370V/FS2 provides a dependable high-capacity solution for demanding three-phase power requirements.
