C18

C18

The C18 is the latest generator and brings commonality with our petroleum products as well as interfacing improvements. We have also taken this opportunity to add new price list options. All engine ratings and emissions certifications are the same, however we have been able to increase the power output of the generator for 12 of the 14 ratings.

Advantages and Features

Separate circuit aftercooling system

The primary advantage of the separate circuit aftercooling system (SCAC) is that no sea water circulates through the aftercooler

Emissions

EPA Tier 3 compliant, IMO II and EU IWW compliant

Cooling system

Heat exchanger and Keel cooled options for all ratings

Turbo Configurations

Single turbo configurations for all ratings

Competitive size and weight

Marine Certifications

All major MCS type approvals available from factory
