Product Detail

Comparing two offers for the same Perkins set

Two quotations for a 30 kVA or 100 kVA set can carry the same headline figure and still describe very different machines. One may specify a genuine engine with a brushless alternator of a known frame and a panel that includes protection; the other may leave the alternator make, the panel functions and the enclosure build form unstated. Most Perkins diesel generator listings published online show only the kVA figure, which is why buyers end up comparing prices that were never for the same thing.

This page sets out what we put into a set built on a Perkins engine, so an offer can be checked point by point rather than on the number alone.

  • Engine platformPerkins diesel, water-cooled
  • Usual output window20 kVA to 500 kVA in this series
  • Frequency and speed50 Hz at 1500 rpm; 60 Hz at 1800 rpm confirmed per order
  • Output400/230 V three-phase; 440 V to order

Why the specification has to be written down

  1. The alternator make and frame are stated. A machine with a known brushless frame can be compared with another offer; an unstated alternator cannot.
  2. Panel functions are listed. Protection, ATS interface and metering are either in the quotation or they are not, and the difference usually appears in the lower price.
  3. Enclosure build form is confirmed. An open skid and a canopy at the same rating are different structures, and the quotation says which one it refers to.
  4. Engine identity can be checked on arrival. The identification plate carries the engine designation and rating, which is what a service parts order is placed against.
  5. Radiator is matched to the destination climate. Sets for hot inland sites are not specified with a temperate cooling package by default.
  6. Packing is described in the offer. Sets leave in a wooden case with waterproof cloth, which matters when a machine travels as break-bulk cargo.

Who builds these sets

Jiangsu Qingzhiteng Power Equipment Co., Ltd manufactures diesel and gas generator sets in Yangzhou, Jiangsu. Its inland diesel programme covers 3 kVA to 3000 kVA and its marine programme 12 kW to 500 kW, and the works builds low-noise units, sets with ATS, container types, parallel systems and remote-monitoring configurations. Sets are exported to more than 80 countries on five continents.

Build and inspection sequence

  1. The engine and alternator stated in the order are received and checked.
  2. The units are coupled on the base frame and alignment is set.
  3. Cooling, fuel and exhaust circuits are assembled and leak-tested.
  4. The panel is wired and its protection settings are configured.
  5. The set is run on the test bench and voltage, frequency and protection are verified.
  6. Enclosure and paint are completed where the order includes a canopy.
  7. The set is cased with waterproof cloth and shipped with its packing list and documents.

Duties in the same class

Clinic and hotel standby, Southeast Asia

The load included sensitive equipment, so the alternator frame and the panel protection were chosen together rather than the machine being selected on kVA alone.

Pumping installation, Africa

Frame selection followed the starting current of the pump motor, which the buyer supplied with the enquiry.

Workshop power, Middle East

A plant room already existed, so an open-frame set was supplied and the canopy was left out of the scope.

Questions buyers ask about this series

How do I compare two prices for a Perkins 100 kVA generator?

Ask both suppliers for the engine model, the alternator make and frame, the panel functions, the enclosure build form and the radiator specification for your ambient temperature. Offers that list these items can be compared; offers that list only the kVA figure cannot.

Is a 30 kVA set enough for a small workshop?

Send the equipment list with the starting method of the largest motor. Starting current, not the running total, is usually what decides whether a 30 kVA machine is sufficient.

Which alternator will be fitted?

The make and frame are stated in the quotation for the configuration you order, and buyers often specify a brushless frame of a known make on this size of set. Tell us your preference and it will be included in the offer.

Can the set be supplied in a canopy for outdoor installation?

Yes. Canopy builds are commonly specified in the 65 to 75 dB(A) range at 7 m; give us the acceptable level and the distance to the nearest sensitive point and the canopy can be matched to it.

What are the MOQ, lead time and payment terms?

They follow the rating, quantity, destination and payment method and are stated in the quotation. Send the quantity and the port and we will quote against your requirement.

For other engine platforms in the same works see the Cummins range and the SDEC series; the full product range lists the enclosure and container builds.

Send a specification to quote against

Tell us the required output and duty, the largest motor and its starting method, the voltage, frequency and phase, your site ambient temperature, whether a canopy or ATS is needed, the quantity and the destination port. We will quote the engine, alternator, panel and enclosure as one configuration.
