Cat

High power density

The in-line six-engine CG18 design delivers greater output from a smaller engine package, with more power packed into a smaller space.
Cat

Improved service access

A roomier enclosure means key components are easily accessible for inspections and maintenance.
Cat

Fewer engine components

An in-line six-engine configuration uses fewer parts than comparable V10 and V12 engines, helping simplify maintenance over the generator set lifecycle.
Cat

No aftertreatment required

Meeting non-emergency emissions requirements without aftertreatment eliminates associated maintenance and replacement costs.
Cat

Ultra-low NOx capability

Very low natural gas inlet pressure capability provides greater flexibility when integrating the generator set.
Cat

Expandable system options

Bolt-on attachments allow the generator set to accommodate additional system capabilities as operating needs change.
