Perkins Powerful 4000 Series Engine at Middle East Electricity

The Perkins team returns to Middle East Electricity (MEE) in 2017 to promote the full range of its diesel and gas electric power engines.

Taking pride of place is the 4000 Series platform, which is designed to provide prime or standby power in critical applications.

The evolution of the Perkins 4000 Series

The steady evolution of the powerful 4000 Series has taken place over a number of years, thanks to significant investment from Perkins. Its development means the engine is used for prime and standby applications by original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and end-users.

The 4000 Series is tough and durable, provides consistent performance in the harshest conditions, and is proving to be a constant, reliable electric power source for prime applications all over the world.

Perkins sells hundreds of 4000 Series engines every year into the prime power market. It has built more than 50,000 4000 Series engines for some of the world’s biggest businesses, and up to 30 per cent of those are for prime use in the electric power sector. Perkins 4000 has helped power hospitals, telecoms, data centres or manufacturing plants.

The high performance range includes diesel and gas engines, from six to 16 cylinders, with exceptional power-to-weight ratios and a compact design. The engines are easy to transport, install and maintain.

Simon Gray, product marketing manager, says, “For more than 20 years, Perkins has made major investments in the design and manufacture of the 4000 Series. The heritage of the 4000 Series diesel and gas engines goes back to the early 1990s.

The 4000 Series platform was seen very much as a standby only engine in the market. But over more than 20 years, Perkins has made major investments in the design and manufacture of the 4000 Series. The current platform is so far removed from the original that it’s virtually unrecognisable.

We launched the 4008 at the end of 2015 and, alongside the revamp of the 4006, 4012 and 4016, this completes the overall product line-up. Be it for powering hospitals, telecoms, data centres or manufacturing plants, the Perkins 4000 Series provides dependable power 24/7, 365 days a year.”
Being so confident about its reliability, Perkins has extended warranties on the 4000 Series to one year of unlimited hours; two years or 6,000 hours for prime power users; and three years or 1,500 hours (with a maximum of 500 hours per year) for standby.

Gray adds, “We have a programme of continuous improvement in place focused on the design of components such as seals, gaskets, injectors and valves, to continually increase the performance, reliability and durability of our engines.




Today the 4000 Series is all about quality and reliability. Not just for standby, but for prime. Where quality and reliability are paramount, you can depend on the Perkins 4000 Series to keep the power on… permanently.”

What Is the Difference Between Electric Motor and Electric Generator

An electric motor is an electrical machine that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. Most electric motors operate through the interaction between the motor's magnetic field and winding currents to generate force. In certain applications, such as in regenerative braking with traction motors, electric motors can be used in reverse as generators to recover energy that might otherwise be lost as heat and friction. An electric generator operates in the reverse direction, converting mechanical energy into electrical energy. Electric generator can be divided into various type, open type, silent type, trailer type, portable type and container type, etc. Electric generator is mainly composed of diesel engine & alternator. Electric generator set is mainly composed of engine, alternator, control module, and common base. Electric generator :- Electric generator is a type of machine which converts mechanical input (energy) into electrical output (...
