Love how you can hear the turbo spool up under load...amazing sound.
First and only time I’ve been present for a large genset load test I was blown away by the turbo sound. The engine starts up, gets to its designated rpm, load is added and the sound of the motor doesn’t change much all you hear is an insane turbo spool.
Right now i'm the only CAT EPG instructor for the ThinkBig program In the country and I like to show my students videos like this. Great video!!!
Always enjoyed being around our generators in telecom. Twice I've been by one when commercial power dropped. Fire up, and as soon as rated RPM is reached the load is dumped. Talk about a hot supper. Got to hang around for one annual load test in mid July. Standing in front of those load banks made a guy miserable in a hurry. Ultimate dyno session.
Hot damn, really!?!?!?
Just as soon as she reaches RPM they go full send on the current required load?
Oof, my mechanicals....
I suppose that's what regular maintenance is supposed to prepare such a machine for, but dang anyways.
That's like waking up and breaking immediately into a full sprint with 80lbs strapped to your back....
What a beautiful beast of mechanical engineering.
@@threadtapwhisperer5136 They get tested every week on an automatic schedule. Same thing. Fires up straight to full tilt. ATS dumps the load to it. Runs for an hour. Then transfers the load off and it runs at rated RPM for 15 minutes and shuts down.

Generators in this type of backup service have the engine coolant kept at about 150 * F so the thermal shock isn't that bad. Generators in critical service ( like hospital / data center ) are changed out after calendar time not run time so taking useful run time off the set isn't an issue. Also, engines in fire pump service have only one fault that will shut them down, over speed. Past that who cares if the engine fails when the building is on fire.
@@bobroberts2371 generators built for the military have a switch that will bypass all shutdown faults while in the heat of battle so it will run as long as the pistons can still bounce in the cylinders.
"How much Power do you need?"
-"Yes"
"Ok, we got this"
how much? All of it
When your at work and a major power outage hits, that is a wonderful sound to hear!
Some serious power involved here
You ain't kidding dude. Could light up a whole neighborhood with that monster.
This monster is awesome in a test cell!
That 3516 engines also run in 789 dump trucks and in cat's biggest wheel loader the 994H.
Listen to those turbo's scream sucking in that air! NICE!
Nice engine, that turbo sound, super👍👍
WOW...I love this sound 👍👍👍
Thanks so much for sharing your experience sir
I’d pay for a Chair and a hotdog! To watch this!🤪
ಠ_ಠ
It's a monster
Seems to be fuming heavy going by the breathers in the bucket, is that normal or has it done a lot of hours? When my 3408 was worn out it fumed so much it made my eyes water, $30,000 fixed that little problem though.
I noticed two service heads on a conduit mast, a set up for parallel operation with the utility lines when the current demand is higher or a temp set up with a service drop with an automatic transfer if case of power failure?
At the large 5 Millon square foot Hospital/research center that I retired from had 15 of these great engines. 4 ran off natural gas that were used during hot summer days to peak shave. Never made any sense why everyone of the 6 locations did not have load banks to prevent wet stacking.
Is wet stacking a problem with NG?
Wow impressive load test, I’m surprised there was no black smoke from the exhaust under load. I could listen to those turbos whistle all day, nothing sounds better than a big diesel under load. What is the fuel burn per hour under full load ?
It will be about 260 litres per MWh.
Yay two million watts! One cylinder of this beast is almost twice my vans power...
The marine versions of this engine could probably go up to 4000 flywheel HP if you really wanted to.
Is that home depot bucket to catch the blow-by?
4 Garrett BTV7511 turbochargers eatin away! they hongry 😁 🤤
What’s that bucket heater for? Why it’s soo small Infromt of every other component
I had to look this up and it has an impressive 69 liters of displacement holy cow
The KW reading on the panel, is that the power output of the generator or is that a reading that shows the shaft horsepower of the engine? Whatever the reading is for, it indicates about 2680 HP but I don't know if that is output shaft hp or the amount of power being generated by the generator. Nice looking engine.
The kW rating is the actual output rating, it is 1825 kW prime and 2000 kW for standby emergency. Take a look at the load test video...when the unit is at full load you can see the output kW on the control panel is as much as 2025 kW. Thank you for your question and have a great day!
I used to work on natural gas 3516 (TALE) with Ariel compressor moving around 5mcf x unit
Juan Rey I tested a cg170-20 that was a monster!
thanks
The most reliable source of electricity in the world.
I love it!
We got 3 of these running my drilling rig
How come the fan is not moving?
Awesome nice ingine voice
This model usually used EMCP II+ control panel.
Now make a video toasting bread with the load resistors. It'll go viral
What does controller this beast..? I hope that not just that EMCP panel (I gueass this is a parraler application).
It was paralleling with an identical unit at it's previous installation thru paralleling switchgear, we converted the panel to stand alone, it is in fact an EMCP II control panel. Thank you, Happy New Year!
She's a workin..
There is one of those up for auction here in Oregon. It's on the second floor of a building, and a wall will have to be removed to get it out. Gonna be pretty spendy, I would imagine.
Super expensive generator and load bank, But i can only see the home depot bucket!
If only I knew how these work
I assume an electrical resistive load is applied. This would produce around 2000kw of heat somewhere, which is not shown in the video. Presumably there is something like a large heat dissipator somewhere with a huge fan or something ?
Yes, there are 4 resistive load banks connected, follow the cables connected to the generator end, they are basically large toasters, all the fans are vertical discharge that exhausts the heat and air up. Thank you and have a great day
I was wondering the same.
I remember visiting my dad at work when they had to 24hr load test the backup gen at a VA hospital. They had several rows of guitar-amp sized load banks. The heat turned an asphalt parking lot into the world's largest fly trap.
it's very good sound ان load
Please help me how to connect UVR 8172 TC to generator 150 kva,
Gonna become a billionaire and use one of these to build my own main battle tank.
Jajajaa x2
Way too big and heavy. You want a turbine for your tank. Or go with twin turbines. Much lighter. A turbine has a power to weight ratio of over 10:1 vs. a big diesel. I worked at a rather large telecom site which had two 120 foot satellite dishes and had twin turbine generators. Man where they cool. This was in my Air Force days. Many moons ago, long before cell phones and internet, GPS, etc. The only way to send a signal across the Atlantic was use gigantic transmitters and on the flip side, gigantic dishes to receive.
Strange exhaust!
It rolls coal like a Diesel should!!!!
where's the electrical energy going? Charging battery packs?
Listen to that kitty Cat scream 👍👍👍👍👍👍
(*^▽^*)
This could power multiple homes.
Homes? It can power small cities
Is that the breather pipe in the bucket
Yes
nice
No me responde el panel de control no me deja encender c15 cat generator
How do you load it? Just big resistors?
Resistive load banks, like a large hair dryer, thank you
I see
Why does the engine go to 1,800rpm from start without idling first?
It is an emergency back up generator, it has coolant heaters to keep the block warm, when the power goes out this generator will be up and running supplying full 2000 kW in under 10 seconds, thank you
For an emergency backup generator you need power right away, as places like hospitals can't afford to be without power for any significant length of time. This engine goes from completely silent to full steam ahead in 6 seconds.
Normally older guys will tell you to warm up Diesel engines before putting them under full load. But generator engines run block heaters so that they can warm up quickly despite having no time in between.
Colocar um radiador desse no uno, quero ver esquentar agora
Isn't this an odd-firing engine? It's a V16 with a 60° V angle and shared non-split crankpins which means firing intervals would alternate between 60° and 30°.
The Caterpillar 3516 is a 45 degree V16 with a four plane crank. It is even firing.
@@frazzledude The 3516 is a 60° engine, not 45°. I think you're talking about the Cummins.
Edit: No, the Cummins is also a 60° engine, with odd firing intervals that are also 60° and 30°.
I don't know of any 1500/1800 RPM V16's with a 45° V angle. The closest one I can think of is the MTU 16V8000 and 20V8000 which are 48°, though they are much larger and only run 1000 or 1200 RPM.
@@electric7487 60 30 is right
I don’t need one, but I just want one...💪💪
135 gallons per hour. Or about 2/3 of the heating tank in your basement if you live up north.

That bucket must be for the crankcase fumes.
And you need 4 of them to run a dragline
Vre nice
2000 kW capacity could power about 1645 average U.S. homes simultaneously, given the average consumption
Is it just me or can you see the fuel level sink (white little tank?)
at full load she drinks 140 gallons of diesel fuel per hr, the tank in the photo is 15 gallons, thank you
Good 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
that fan probably needs 100kw to spin
whats in the bucket 2:51
Is this the biggest engine that cat ever produced?
Not even close… this a small compared to some.
Looks maybe Griffen,ga
Load test video taken at our yard in Waukesha, WI. Thank you
So this engine can run a submarine with 2 MW electric motor propeller
اوكيه
perfect to power my toaster
Ok 👍👍
But why though
Wish I had a load bank that massive. Lol. Makes the 400 amps mine is capable of loading look like a sissy. Lol
C est bon generateur
Thank you, have a great day - Merci, passez une bonne journée
70liter mine had borg warner s300 turbo shit very expensive engine
ONG Power full
Find me a V12 Allis Chalmers genset
I saw a vid of one being removed from a hospital. I always wondered why they didn't put that into a Dozer. Move over Komatsu.
@@thegreenerthemeaner the dozer would have to be huge to handle the power it made
