Cummins Gas Engine Gensets
Commercial power systems, under
the Cummins Onan name in North America, consist of 5kW-2MW generator sets,
controls, transfer switches and paralleling switchgears for customers
such as office buildings, retail stores, telecommunications, hospitals,
schools, and factories. In countries where utility power is unreliable
or unavailable, they are used as a prime source of power.
Generator sets marketed under the Onan brand are used primarily in recreational
vehicles, commercial vehicles, and pleasure boats.
Our spark-ignited generator sets, 6.0 to 150 kW, are designed for applications that call for gaseous fuel options as a result of fuel containment, economic and emissions considerations, or compliance with local codes. These generator sets have fuel systems for both natural gas and propane, making them a convenient choice for a variety of life-support and related applications, including small health care facilities and retail businesses.

Cummins Lean-Burn Gas generator sets are a powerful, single-source solution
that integrates essential hardware and software components into one highly
reliable, efficient power system. Paralleling and controls capability,
including our proprietary PowerCommandTM control, is built right in to
provide seamless installation, commissioning and operation. Plus every
generator set comes with a partnership with Cummins: the power generation
leader who is easy to do business with and who provides unequalled local
service and support.
Emissions
Ratings are given for the QSK19G running at 100% loading
NOx = 2.0 g/hp-hr
CO = 1.8 g/hp-hr
NMHC < 1.0 g/hp-hr
Standby Gensets
Most Cummins units are primarily marketed as stand-by power. Although most have prime power duty ratings, their web site does not promote continuous duty cogeneration. These units range in size from the small GTA5.9 Engine with a 41 kW Generator, up to the GTA50 with an 850 kW Generator. See the full line in the PDF Literature below.
The Lean Burn QS Line IS promoted
as a cogeneration system.
