Pramac GDW540I/FNE | 434.2kW Diesel Generator | Three-Phase | FPT Engine

The Pramac GDW540I/FNE is a professional industrial diesel generating set engineered for applications requiring dependable high-capacity three-phase power.

At the heart of the generator is the FPT C13TE7, a 12.9-litre six-cylinder turbocharged and aftercooled diesel engine operating at 1500rpm. The engine features electronic speed governing, water cooling and a 24V electric starting system.

The generator delivers 542.8kVA / 434.2kW Emergency Standby Power and 500kVA / 400kW Prime Power, making it suitable for emergency backup installations as well as extended operation under variable electrical loads.

FPT Industrial Diesel Engine

The FPT C13TE7 combines strong power output with robust industrial construction and dependable operating performance.

Key engine characteristics include:

• 12,880cm³ / 12.9-litre displacement
• Six cylinders in-line
• Turbocharged and aftercooled aspiration
• Electronic speed governor
• Water-cooled design
• 24V electric starting system
• 32-litre oil capacity
• 48-litre coolant capacity
• Maximum PRP lube oil consumption of approximately 0.2% of fuel consumption

The engine develops up to 480kWm gross mechanical power in ESP operation and 446kWm in PRP operation.

Mecc Alte Alternator

Electrical generation is handled by the Mecc Alte ECO40 3S4 C brushless alternator.

The alternator provides a 546kVA standby rating at 27°C and a 500kVA continuous nominal rating at 40°C.

It offers approximately 94.6% efficiency at full load, Class H insulation, IP23 protection and approximately ±0.5% voltage tolerance.

Fuel Consumption & Runtime

Fuel consumption is approximately:

77.01 litres per hour at 75% Prime Power

101.82 litres per hour at 100% Prime Power

A wide range of optional fuel tanks is available with capacities from 500 litres up to 4,500 litres.

Depending on the selected tank, approximate runtime at 75% PRP ranges from 6.49 hours to 58.43 hours.

Automatic Mains Failure Control

The optional ACP Automatic Control Panel provides Auto Mains Failure functionality for standby installations.

The system offers full generator monitoring and protection, detailed event and performance logging, remote-control compatibility and optional I/O expansion.

Parallel Generator Operation

For larger power installations, the optional MPP Modular Parallel Panel enables the GDW540I/FNE to operate in parallel with other generating sets.

Up to 32 generator sets can be configured for parallel operation, making this model suitable for large industrial systems, load sharing and redundancy applications.

Open, Canopy & Extra Silent Versions

The GDW540I/FNE is available in open-frame, weatherproof canopy and Extra Silent canopy configurations.

The standard canopy uses galvanized sheet-steel construction and quality acoustic insulation to protect the generator from demanding environmental conditions.

The standard canopy provides approximately:

• 105 dB(A) guaranteed sound power
• 85 dB(A) sound pressure at 1 metre
• 75 dB(A) sound pressure at 7 metres

The Extra Silent version reduces this to approximately:

• 102 dB(A) guaranteed sound power
• 82 dB(A) sound pressure at 1 metre
• 72 dB(A) sound pressure at 7 metres

Typical Applications

The Pramac GDW540I/FNE is suitable for industrial facilities, manufacturing plants, warehouses, commercial buildings, construction projects, utilities, infrastructure, agriculture, emergency standby systems and prime power installations.

With its combination of FPT engine technology, Mecc Alte alternator performance and 434.2kW standby output, the GDW540I/FNE provides a dependable high-capacity solution for demanding three-phase power requirements.
