Pramac GDW725V/FS2 | 578.6kW Diesel Generator | Three-Phase | Volvo Engine

The Pramac GDW725V/FS2 is a high-capacity industrial diesel generating set engineered for applications requiring dependable three-phase power.

At the heart of the generator is the Volvo TWD1644GE, a 16.1-litre six-cylinder turbocharged and intercooled diesel engine operating at 1500rpm. The engine features electronic speed governing, water cooling and a 24V electric starting system.

The generator delivers 723.2kVA / 578.6kW Emergency Standby Power and 657.9kVA / 526.3kW Prime Power, making it suitable for emergency backup installations as well as extended operation under variable electrical loads.

An optional Data Centre Power configuration is also available, providing 657.9kVA / 526.3kW DCP output for suitable data centre applications.

Volvo Industrial Diesel Engine

The Volvo TWD1644GE combines high mechanical output with substantial displacement and proven industrial durability.

Key engine characteristics include:

• 16,120cm³ / 16.1-litre displacement
• Six cylinders in-line
• Turbocharged and intercooled aspiration
• Electronic speed governor
• Water-cooled design
• Stage II emissions level
• 24V electric starting system
• 48-litre oil capacity
• 75-litre coolant capacity

The engine develops up to 630kWm gross mechanical power in ESP operation and 575kWm in PRP and DCP operation.

Mecc Alte Alternator

Electrical generation is handled by the Mecc Alte ECO40 3L4 C brushless alternator.

The alternator provides a 735kVA standby rating at 27°C and a 680kVA continuous nominal rating at 40°C.

It offers approximately 95% efficiency at full load, Class H insulation, IP23 protection and approximately ±0.5% voltage tolerance.

Fuel Consumption & Runtime

Fuel consumption is approximately:

100.61 litres per hour at 75% Prime Power

132.80 litres per hour at 100% Prime Power

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

Approximate runtime at 75% PRP ranges from 4.97 hours with the 500-litre tank up to 44.73 hours with the 4,500-litre tank.

Automatic Mains Failure Control

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

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

Parallel Generator Operation

For larger installations, the optional MPP Modular Parallel Panel enables the GDW725V/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 large industrial installations, load sharing, redundancy and critical infrastructure applications.

Open & Canopy Versions

The GDW725V/FS2 is available in open-frame and weatherproof canopy configurations.

The canopy version uses galvanized sheet-metal construction, soundproofing material and a residential silencer to provide environmental protection while reducing operating noise.

Standard canopy noise levels are approximately:

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

An Extra Silent enclosure option is also listed for applications where reduced noise output is required.

Typical Applications

The Pramac GDW725V/FS2 is suitable for industrial facilities, manufacturing plants, warehouses, large commercial buildings, construction and infrastructure projects, data centres, utilities, emergency standby systems and prime power installations.

With its combination of Volvo engine technology, Mecc Alte alternator performance and 578.6kW standby output, the GDW725V/FS2 provides a powerful and dependable solution for demanding high-capacity three-phase power requirements.
