Product features

Engineered for site conditions, not for the showroom

Heavy-Duty Natural Gas Construction

Engine, alternator and control panel for the 500 kW gas unit sit on a fabricated base, with the gas train pressure-tested and the package wired before dispatch.

500 kW Prime / 550 kW Standby Duty

At 380/220 V, 50 Hz and 1500 rpm the set delivers 500 kW prime / 550 kW standby, 625 kVA. It is specified for continuous prime duty with regular load swings.

Tier-1 Natural Gas Engine Platforms

Gas engine platform choices for this 500 kW set are Cummins and Weichai; the platform for your order is confirmed at order stage after alternator matching.

Closed Water-Cooling with Forced Fan

For the 500 kW rating, cooling is closed water-circuit with forced ventilation; the oversized tank absorbs heat soak during long continuous operation.

Industrial Protection and Environmental Adaptability

Protection on the 500 kW unit is IP23 or higher by sealing and anti-corrosion finishing, upgradable where dust, rain, snow or heat are more severe.

Flexible Configuration and Fast Deployment

Site wiring and start-up on the 500 kW set can be shortened with an optional ATS, remote monitoring, cable winch and quick connectors; the remaining settings follow the project specification.

Applications

Where this 500 kW natural gas generator set is used

1. Production lines The 500 kW set is commonly applied to production lines and compressors at continuous prime duty with regular load swings. Mixed motor and lighting load means the alternator is matched with step-load margin at 500 kW.

2. Hotels For hotels and commercial buildings the 500 kW rating covers mid-size industrial and site power at continuous prime duty with regular load swings. Shift patterns for the 500 kW set usually mean 12–16 hours a day, so fuel autonomy is calculated on that basis.

3. Data Where data and telecom rooms is the load, the 500 kW rating is normally specified at continuous prime duty with regular load swings. Compressor and motor starts drive the transient requirement, which is checked against the 500 kW rating.

4. Quarries The 500 kW natural gas generator set set suits quarries and crushing plants. Duty is continuous prime duty with regular load swings. Parallel operation on the 500 kW set is often considered where duty is split between two units.

5. Agricultural processing Agricultural processing is a standard application for the 500 kW unit, which runs at continuous prime duty with regular load swings. Sound limits at the boundary usually point to a canopy build at the 500 kW rating.

6. Site offices The 500 kW set is commonly applied to site offices and welfare blocks at continuous prime duty with regular load swings. Cable runs for the 500 kW set are longer, so voltage drop is checked before the final rating is fixed.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about this 500 kW natural gas generator set

What power rating does this generator set provide?

This unit is rated 500 kW prime / 550 kW standby (625 kVA) at 380/220 V, 50 Hz, 1500 rpm. Rated current is stated on the approved data sheet for the selected build, because it follows the voltage and power factor confirmed for the project.

Which natural gas engines are available for this set?

This 500 kW set is available on Cummins and Weichai platforms. The engine is matched to the alternator at the 500 kW rating and the complete set is aligned and full-load tested in our own works, so the platform for your order is confirmed at specification stage rather than assumed.

Natural Gas, silent or containerized — how do I choose?

Enclosure choice follows site conditions rather than rating. This page covers the natural gas package build; at 500 kW the same engine and alternator package can also be supplied in the other builds across Outevo’s 10–3,750 kVA range, with parallel operation is available where duty is split across two units.

Can the voltage and frequency be customised?

Yes. 380/220 V and 50 Hz are the published standard for the 500 kW rating, but voltage and frequency are set to your project specification under OEM/ODM terms, including 60 Hz and medium-voltage requirements where the project calls for them.

What is the minimum order quantity?

One set. A single 500 kW unit can be ordered for a standalone site; where load growth or redundancy is expected, parallel operation is available where duty is split across two units. Other ratings in the 10–3,750 kVA range are quoted per project.

How is the quality of each unit assured?

Every 500 kW set is assembled and load-tested on our own production lines before shipment, and travels with a data sheet and test record. Shanghai Outevo Machinery Co., Ltd. has manufactured diesel and gas sets including this 500 kW rating generator sets since 2006 from a 20,000 m² production base in Shandong.
