FAQ

Q1: What is the difference between the 1500rpm and 1800rpm versions?

They share the same Build List (MGBF8026) and parts, but are separate engine builds and are not field-interchangeable between speeds.

Q2: Are genuine Perkins parts required, or can aftermarket parts be used?

Genuine parts via an authorized first-tier distributor ensure correct fitment and preserve warranty validity; aftermarket parts carry fitment and performance risk.

Q3: What lubricating oil is specified?

15W40 to API CI-4.

Q4: What does the ElectropaK configuration include?

A complete generator-set engine package incorporating mounted air filter, loose-supplied radiator with integral air-to-air charge cooler, 24V starter/alternator, and ECM-based engine protection.

Q5: What fuel specification is required?

BS 2869: Part 2 1998 Class A2, or ASTM D975 D2.

Q6: How does fuel consumption compare across load levels at 1500rpm?

Standby 207 g/kWh (114 l/hr); Prime 211 g/kWh (106 l/hr); 75% load 215 g/kWh (81 l/hr); 50% load 220 g/kWh (55 l/hr).
