Perkins 2206A-E13TAG2 Diesel Engine 350–438 kVA | 1500/1800 rpm

The 2206A-E13TAG2 is a 6-cylinder, 12.5-litre turbocharged and air-to-air aftercooled diesel engine from the Perkins 2200 Series, purpose-built for stationary power generation in the 350–438 kVA range. Supplied in ElectropaK configuration with radiator, air filter, ECM, starter motor, and flywheel as standard, it is ready for direct integration into generator set assembly. As the entry generation of the 2206 E13TAG platform, it operates at both 1500 rpm (50 Hz) and 1800 rpm (60 Hz) without hardware modification, making it one of the few engines in this power class to offer true dual-frequency switchability from a single unit.

Build List & Series Compatibility

2206A-E13TAG2 Build List

Both Build Lists refer to the same engine specification. The difference is production batch only — parts compatibility is identical across both designations.

2206 E13TAG2 Series — Generation Index

All three generations produce identical power output at the same speed and rating. Generation differences relate to emissions compliance level, not power performance. If your genset frame was built for the 2206A platform, confirm engine mount and flywheel housing dimensions before substituting a C or D generation unit.

Build List Identification Guide

The Build List is stamped on the engine dataplate, mounted on the rocker cover or timing case. Locate the dataplate and read the alphanumeric string beginning with TGB or TGBF.

Nameplate fields to record before ordering:
· Build List (e.g. TGBF5012 or TGB5012)
· Engine Serial Number (ESN)
· Rated speed (1500 or 1800 rpm)
Provide both the Build List and ESN when requesting a quote. This allows us to confirm exact specification match before order commitment.

FAQ

Q1: What is the difference between Build List TGBF5012 and TGB5012?

A: Both refer to the same 2206A-E13TAG2 specification. TGBF5012 is the original Perkins designation from 2009; TGB5012 is the updated designation used on later production engines. Parts compatibility is identical.

Q2: Can the 2206A-E13TAG2 run at both 50 Hz and 60 Hz?

A: Yes. This engine supports both 1500 rpm (50 Hz) and 1800 rpm (60 Hz) operation. Switching is performed at the ECM/governor level; no mechanical changes to the engine are required.

Q3: What is the difference between the 2206A, 2206C, and 2206D generations?

A: All three produce identical power output at equivalent speed and rating. The primary difference between generations is emissions compliance level. The 2206D supports 1800 rpm only and does not offer 50 Hz operation.

Q4: Is the 2206A-E13TAG2 still in production?

A: Confirm current production status at inquiry. New and genuine surplus stock units are available; provide your required rated speed and we will confirm availability.

Q5: What lubricating oil specification is required?

A: 15W40 to API CI-4. Total system capacity is 40 L (10.6 US gal). Standard service interval is 500 hours.

Q6: Does the ElectropaK configuration include a radiator?

A: Yes. The standard ElectropaK includes a radiator (rated for tropical ambient conditions), air filter, fuel filter, water separator, manual fuel priming pump, ECM, full wiring harness, starter motor, charging alternator, flywheel, flywheel housing, fan and fan guard.

Q7: What is the fuel specification?

A: BS 2869 Part 2 Class A2, BSEN590, or ASTM D975 Class 1D/2D.

Q8: What is the fuel consumption of the 2206A-E13TAG2?7

A: At 1500 rpm, fuel consumption at 100% load is 195 g/kWh, improving to 196 g/kWh at 75% load. At 1800 rpm, 100% load consumption is 193 g/kWh, with 196 g/kWh at 75% load — marginally more efficient than the 1500 rpm configuration at full load. For load-sensitive applications, the 1800 rpm rating offers a slight fuel economy advantage at high utilisation.
