Caterpillar has launched nine new Cat GC diesel generator sets that extend the upper range of its value-engineered power solutions with models suitable for medium- to large-sized stationary standby applications.

The nine new models now available include three models from 1250 to 1500 kVA for 50Hz applications globally, three models from 800 to 1250kW for 60Hz applications in North America, and three models from 800 to 1250kW for 60Hz applications outside North America.

Primarily targeted at the global electrical contractor market, Cat GC generator sets are engineered to simplify the specification process and substantially reduce quotation and delivery times while helping to meet tight budget requirements. Select models with commonly specified power outputs and configurations are stocked at larger Cat dealer locations for immediate delivery.
