Teksan unveils its huge 2500 kVA Genset with the worlds first 5016 engine from Perkins

The TJ2500PE diesel generator built in Turkey also benefits from a control system partnership with Deep Sea Electronics and a Nidec Leroy-Somer alternator.

In this product walkaround, Peter Haddock opened doors to reveal the engineering that went into making the new product, with experts from all four businesses explaining its key features. 

Deniz Ar of Teksan: "We are the first OEM to use the new 5016 engine technology in our products. It's a huge step forward in delivering higher power capacity and performance."

Mike Rosser of Perkins highlighted key benefits of the new engine:

"The 5016 replaces and enhances the previous model, offering greater flexibility for critical standby and prime applications.

"With features like improved filtration, full electronic control, and a 750-hour oil change interval, we're delivering lower running costs and higher efficiency for operators worldwide."

Simon Whitaker from Deep Sea Electronics added: "We worked closely with Teksan to deliver a complex control system, made simple. It's robust, easy to use, and connected via a telemetry system for full visibility of asset performance and preventative maintenance."

Xavier from Nidec added, "This alternator is one of our largest in the low-voltage market. By combining it with the 5016 engine and Teksan's design, we're ensuring global reliability and performance for every unit delivered."

Teksan's engineering team has also developed custom enclosures with sound reduction capabilities and synchronisation, allowing multiple 2500 KVA units to operate together and scaling up to meet demanding power requirements of 20 MVA and beyond.

Deniz: "Our strength is in our engineering capabilities, which allow us to offer a range of customisation options to make solutions like this work for varied applications all over the world."
