Types of Cummins Generators
-
Diesel Generators
- Functionality: Diesel generators use diesel fuel to power an internal combustion engine, which drives an alternator to produce electricity.
- Applications: Ideal for standby power, prime power, and continuous power applications in commercial, industrial, and residential settings.
-
Natural Gas Generators
- Functionality: These generators utilize natural gas as a fuel source, offering a cleaner alternative to diesel with lower emissions.
- Applications: Suitable for continuous and prime power applications, particularly in regions with a reliable natural gas supply.
-
Bi-Fuel Generators
- Functionality: Bi-fuel generators can operate on both diesel and natural gas, providing flexibility and fuel efficiency.
- Applications: Used in scenarios where fuel availability may vary or where a backup fuel source is needed.
-
Portable Generators
- Functionality: Compact and mobile units designed for ease of transport and use in various temporary and remote locations.
- Applications: Ideal for construction sites, outdoor events, and emergency backup power.
-
Marine Generators
- Functionality: Specifically designed for maritime applications, these generators provide reliable power for ships and offshore platforms.
- Applications: Used in marine vessels, oil rigs, and other offshore operations.
