Sure looks like a "40,000 KW" that thing is massive! Great start up.
Thanks for watching. Now that the HZ conversion is done-- we will load test it soon. Watch for that video if you liked this start up!
I would bet, you could get more than that out of this size of engine. But to keep it running 24/7 you only getting 4000 kw.
Nice 😂
Real knowledgeable with those batteries sitting on concrete.
? What
3520 cat
With some minor modifications, that would fit in my Nissan Maxima.
And you're funny 🤪
Yess minor 😂
i have 2 side by side
@@jackoneill8585 👍cool
jajaja
Can't even imagine the noise it will make when running on full load
They get quieter with load.
@@Dbtclctr Not! LOL!
Definitely need ear protection within 30 yards! Just on this start up.
We ran one of these at work without the exhaust and had db readings of 130 at 10 feet away
I have seen diesel-powered express trains pass by at full load long time ago. The noise is massive and extremely beautiful. Back then, they were class 218 trains from germany. These have min. 2500 horsepower. These locomotives are a dream.
20 cylinders 4 turbos ❤❤❤
The standby generators I saw at Denver's baseball stadium and at ESPN HQ had hot water circulating in the jackets at all time. Less than two seconds from "Push the button, Max" to full load.
Ditto. Was in a mall that had 8 of them (paired in 4 different locations) set up like that. The supervisor made us wear muffs in case they kicked up. He said it gives him a fright every time its so sudden and unpredictable.
Damn! So it's a V-20!
Yes, and we will post a load test as soon as its ready.
V-18
@@shavkatazizov5483looks like 10 on each side.
@@GeneratorSource Is it the Caterpillar C175-20 ?
Retired from a large hospital / research centers that had 18 large gen sets. Most being Cat 2 MW Diesels. 4 were Cat natural gas garbage gen sets that even after a million dollar rebuild & new controls could not run over 90 to 95% load on load banks especially during warm weather. Wish Cat would install a ladder to reach radiator fill caps. Wasn't fun dragging a ten foot step ladder hundreds of feet to one of the eight generator rooms. Temple hospital in Philly has a huge generator room with 10 double ended Cat GE restore ( 2 Diesel engines = 1 at each end of gen sets ).
that exhaust note on start up is awsome 👍👍🇺🇸
Thanks yeah pretty sweet in person too. Load test will be next-- stay tuned!
I'm going to return the puny 9,000 watt generator I bought at COSTCO and get this BEAST ! ! Caterpillar is AWESOME ! ! !
Now you can charge your eco Tesla's 😂
Just by parking next to it!
😢❤😊
😂
I need this to power my MCintosh audio system.
Make that fit in a truck, you can pull your 80,000 lbs up the steepest mountain without loosing any speed. Only downside is you wont get far on your dual 150 gallon tanks, probably like a laughable 20 miles or so.
That was just the start up, put the load test to it, then she plays music!! lol
Put a brill bit on that thing and it could drive itself to China, straight down through the earth!
Caterpillar is a symbol of the strength of American industries, powerful generators💪
Cat moved headquarters out of Chicago recently. Relocated in Florida.
@@markdoering6877 why did they move out of Chicago?
Put this in a Diesel locomotive and you got yourself a powerhouse😎
Greta has left the chat! 😊
She's in her cry closet.
My god in heaven thats a sled puller i smell full pulls an one hell of a good time
And that little tiny battery charger ran the show
Along with 4 Batteries laying there Friend
@@stevenstair1068
Yea bud. Just a joke
@@stevenstair1068probably needed the charger as concrete drains batteries and not many people know it
@@americaniron316Not many'd believe it, either! 😂😂
@@americaniron316 what stupid thing to say 😂
That might be just enough to run all my guitar amplifiers. 🎸👈⚡😄
We had CAT generator onboard ship 🚢 as a silent-energy (in container) which was used as an emergency generator only. So much noisy in the container, but so much silent outside after shutting the door.
Una vez acá en Chile reparamos un grupo igual a ese cat, de propiedad de minera el toqui en Coyhaique,era música a los oídos a plena carga
4mw gen
Waiting for a @KT3406E overhaul. 👀
20 cylinders?
That a couple million bucks installed
I thought it would make a great train engine😮
😮😮😮😮😊😊😊😊 from Malaysia 🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾
Nice generator, i think this demon can make any building light! (Sorry my english is bad)
its a yellow badboy more than enough to light our small community of 50 households including lamposts and basketball court with enough reserve of 1 megawatt during night time when load is at its peak.
I need one might can power my whole town
Can this charge my tesla?.
😂
Wow, that start up is excellent! About the same level of awesome sound as the older EMD genset UA-cam video, that shows the genset starting & running at "rated load".
Judging from the number of valve covers visible in the video, the engine would appear to be a V-20.
How long untill someone puts one in a Miata
V18, right?? Stationary Generator!! That monster deserves to be in some big heavy vehicle!! Like a Quarry Dump Truck or Front End Loader!!
@@RedneckSpaceman for sure. This one was going to a hospital and it’s a V20.
@@GeneratorSource oh!! I tried to count and I kept coming up with 9 Rocker Covers on one side!
Que maravilla de máquina americana....
cement manufacturing plant in Dixon Illinois had two of those generators for backup. Started them every couple of weeks for an hour or so. Radiators sat outside the building. Huge units.
Reminds me of the earlier version in "Das Boot"
Will it fit into my f350 truck?
The normally running diesel engine exhaust gas colour is LIGHT PALE BROWN has been perfectly demonstrated by this video with white cloud back ground after started within the same minute!
Is this a C17520V?
That's a lot of Twist !
Cool! But why don't you just say "4 MW"?
We typically do both on social but some folks don’t understand M stands for 1000. On our website we stick to kW so our international clients can more easily convert to KVA…. Without asking us how much kW is that 4MW. If I go MW I’ll have 10x the questions of how many kW? Always an adventure!
@@GeneratorSource: Huhhh... then let me rephrase my question: Aghhhemm...
"Cool! But why don't you just say '4 megawatts'?"
@@HelloKittyFanMan. as you can see less work when we say 4000 kW. Already too much work here so we’ll stick with thousands lol. Saves time. Period.
At the new addition to the Va Hospital in Augusta Ga, I ran the 12" exhaust pipes for the Cat emergency generators. They went up through the roof. They were big, not as big as this one.
For my fellow "WHAT THE FUCK IS A KILOMETEEEER PEW PEW DAKKADAKKADAKKADAKKA" That is 5364.088 Mechanical Horsepower
Caterpillar has been American power manufacturer for decades!
Once got called out to a datacenter to fix a radiator on one of four brand new similar size cats. When they started commissioning the engines one of the fans sucked up a penny and launched it through the radiator core and the engine dumped the coolant everywhere. I remember when we bought it back having to carry 25 gallon drums of coolant up many flights of stairs for some reason. Good times.

CUTE LITTLE GUY!!
I WORKED ON THE LOCOMOTIVE VERSION OF THE 3612!!
MORE MY SIZE!
Sooooo……..how many Teslas would this CAT charge? Any Electrical Engineers out there?
I’ve fueled these up at a casino for standby power, they had three running at full rpm. Hearing protection barely works.
I believe it! They are loud even 30 yards away.
@@GeneratorSource The cement vibrates!
I worked at a place called girtz industry's in Indiana we built generators portable ones. Shove that engine in a box with everything required. I built the silencers. You could stand next to this running full tilt and have a conversation no problem.
@@jimmartin5362 I’ve been around the silenced semi trailer mounted ones but they are still loud and can feel the vibrations through the ground but the single axle ones are surprisingly quiet.
4000kw = 4MW. Always reduce to the lowest common unit of measurement.
It almost looks like a 3520 but those valve covers look weird. Now I'm curious! I rebuild 3512's and 3516's for a living and have yet to see one of these
.... and everyone in the room just lost their hearing and now use sign language.
Man them power plants are super loud.
Under load... Man, forget about it. A sound like no other. Out of this world
Cool to see the 4000 ready for action!😮
MTU ?
Would this be big enough to power my 1100sqft home during a power outage?
Batteries - "Oh Yeah! We are charged up and ready to g - Wait whoa, whoa, you didn't say we'd have to crank over an ocean liner!"
А для какой машины этот двигатель используется
Sun oil (Marcus hook, pa) has a group, and my buddy and I did top end overhauls on a few, 3516' two 3512's, and a 3508. They have a few more, but they weren't due. They were located outside in steel cabins 10' up. It was a hot summer, and we weren't allowed to use power tools, but I had a blast. After all the reassembly, that first startup is so rewarding. Btw, these engines powered water pumps Upstream to their Filtration facility then pumped into the Delaware River
I'm not impressed. You want to see power you want to feel power you get to a KV major Merrlees. Caterpillar stands no chance all they do is add too much gold alloy into their paint not worth the time
Tugboat? Icebreaker? If it was navy it would be grey
I don't know how much battery power this is going to take to start but I know how much we're going to use!😂

Isso deve comer um combustível da porra. Kkk porque aqui tem 5 de 1200 já consome que só.. Cummins
That's a lot of unscratched clean painted steel. 400000 thousand hp stuck in dreamland
❤ love start engine.i like it my job ❤
Its cute. Does it also come in a man sized version 😂
That turbo is a lot smaller than I expected lol
@@Alexiosftw which one of the 4 are you talking about? Lol Love it!
@@GeneratorSourceoh damn there’s four?!? 😂
I wonder how much tractive effort this thing can lay down ???
This Little Maneuver's Gonna Cost Us 51 gal of fuel
Seria legal se esse cara que está filmando, soubesse filma.
Machine de fou..il a cependant une chose qui m interpellé qui en soit rien avoir,mais pourquoi en Europe il a encore et je dit bien le seul constructeur de poids lourds à faire des v8 et que CAT n en font pas et n à jamais vraiment fait pour les camion américain.moi ça choque de voir des camion monstrueux et de s avoir que sous capot un 6cylindre et de moyenne 500ch
Could probably charge six or nine EV’s in half a day or so.
Is this for sale? I'm looking for a good used generator to run my refrigerator and furnace during ice storms. This looks like it should work and might possibly even run my Christmas lights at the same time?
How many cylender in this engine ?&what , s'firing order?
Nicee 🎉🎉🎉
Environmentalists everywhere running to their cry closets.
Mitsubishi heavy industry bigger engine than this caterpillar
I hauled one of them engines in the radiator with the engine iHome was bigger it had four turbos
Good engine for a locomotive
That's euro 6 or 6.2? Where are the catalyst filters and fap?👀
Takes 4 deep cycles batteries and a charger to crank that baby up😮
Anda ala isla loco q motorasoo jaja para cargar la tablett
Can you give me the cause of how much this engine cost is caterpillar
@Nutchwa Novovitch he is not here, or any social media, but he likes a diesel power.. so i tag him.😊
If you can charge my Tesla I won’t ask questions 😌
I need this on a trailer to charge a Tesla Cybertruck
That isnt a cooling fan.. It's a bloody prop from a plane !! LoL Also, I'll take one thanks. Cat baby yeah !!!
One hell of an engine and radiator 😂 I work on airplanes mainly the GE CF34 powerplant which is tiny in comparison but i can appreciate the engineering and the mechanics that maintain and fix those giant engines.
C175? Went to Peoria a year ago for them. Cool engines. The “electronic temperature control group” is strange and annoying but this is a super choocher. We are installing over a hundred at a data center for Facebook right now.
Quad turbo V-20...Nice
Caterpillar lovers give a like
Cummins comment
Et avec l’électricité produite on fait rouler les voitures .
That'll cost you a few bucks an hour to run...😬
Somewhere there is a locomotive that is missing its engine!!
so this is 4 thousand watts my amazon generator can do the same thing
Extra batteries and a charger just to get it to start. Yep it’s a cat
Keep electronic components to a minimal if any.
4MW? Этот мини генератов для дачи?
If you want to know how massive it is. It is taller the guy who's walking there besides😂😂😂😂
@@moejaytvthetopten1608 and he is 6-2. Radiator fan is 12 feet.
