Detailed Technical Specifications of 1000 kVA Cummins Diesel Generator

Casing Variants, Physical Dimensions, and Fuel Tank Analysis

PT Multi Kharisma Prima engineers each generator casing option to optimize footprint efficiency, service accessibility, and field transportability. The table below outlines physical dimensions and daily fuel tank capacities for the Open Type configuration:

Key Characteristics of Open Type Casing Construction

The Open Type casing option for the 1000 kVA Cummins generator is manufactured to high precision standards, ensuring maximum mechanical protection in demanding work environments:

• Open Type: Designed for stationary indoor installations within dedicated engine rooms (power houses) or customized enclosure modules. Built upon a heavy-duty steel skid frame equipped with anti-vibration mountings, this design facilitates connection to exhaust silencer systems and acoustic room ventilation ducting. Fuel supply systems are tailored using external daily or bulk fuel tanks according to operational requirements.

Engineering Features of the Cummins KTA 38 - G5 Industrial Engine

The flagship Cummins KTA 38 - G5 engine provides unmatched durability and power density for this 1000 kVA generator set:

Massive 37.8-Liter V12 Engine Displacement: The 12-cylinder V-configuration engine block (159 mm bore and 159 mm stroke) yields high low-end torque. This large displacement allows the engine to absorb sudden electrical starting loads (inrush currents) when starting heavy industrial motors.

Optimized G5 High-Output 1000 kVA Calibration: The KTA 38 - G5 model uses optimized fuel injection and aftercooled air intake calibrations to produce 1000 kVA / 800 kW power output while maintaining overall engine durability.

Fuel Economy: Consuming 161.00 liters per hour at 75% load and 209.00 liters per hour at 100% full load, the engine maintains a predictable fuel consumption rate for operational budgeting.

Serviceability and Global Spare Parts Support: Proven KTA 38 engine design simplifies routine service procedures. Supported by an established Cummins distribution network, maintenance components remain readily available across Indonesia.

High-Precision Alternator and Electrical Output

The industrial Cummins engine is paired with a Stamford / brushless alternator, producing clean and stable electrical power for sensitive facility equipment.

Equipped with an Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR), the alternator maintains voltage regulation within a tight ±1% tolerance. This prevents voltage surges, sags, and harmonic distortions affecting computers, automated control systems, and machinery. The alternator features Class H thermal insulation rated up to 180°C and an IP23 protection enclosure against dust and moisture.

Digital Control Module and Automated Safety Features

Operation of the 1000 kVA Cummins generator is managed by an advanced digital control panel (Deepsea / SmartGen) featuring an intuitive graphical display. The controller monitors key system parameters in real time:

• Comprehensive Electrical Parameters: Displays phase-to-phase and phase-to-neutral voltages, electrical current (Amps), frequency (Hz), power factor (Cos Phi), active power (kW), and cumulative energy consumption (kWh).
• Real-Time Engine Monitoring: Monitors oil pressure (135.0-liter oil capacity), coolant temperature, engine RPM, battery charging voltage, and cumulative running hours.
• Automatic Protection Shutdown: Protects the generator by initiating automatic shutdown upon detecting abnormal conditions such as low oil pressure, high coolant temperature, overspeed, battery charging failure, or electrical overload.
• ATS/AMF & Paralleling Integration: Ready for connection with Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) / Automatic Mains Failure (AMF) panels and paralleling controllers for multi-unit generator synchronization.

Standard Package Inclusions

Every 1000 kVA Cummins generator purchased from PT Multi Kharisma Prima is supplied as a complete operational package including standard industrial accessories:

• Complete integrated generator unit with Cummins KTA 38 - G5 engine and Stamford alternator.

Quality Testing and Factory Acceptance Testing

PT Multi Kharisma Prima enforces quality assurance protocols prior to shipment. Every generator set undergoes a Factory Acceptance Load Bank Test across 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%, and 110% load steps.

This procedure verifies radiator cooling performance, fuel combustion efficiency, governor speed response, and alternator voltage stability against factory specifications before site delivery.
