Perkins 2506C-E15TAG2 Diesel Engine For Sale – Product Overview

Perkins 2506C-E15TAG2 is a diesel engine from the Perkins 2500 Series, designed specifically for industrial generator set applications.
It is commonly used in 400–550 kVA gensets, including standard 500 kVA generator configurations, and is widely adopted in both standby and prime power projects.
For fleet operators and maintenance teams, this engine is valued for its stable output, predictable performance, and long-term serviceability in critical power applications.

Designed for Stable Operation & Controlled Risk

Efficient Combustion with Practical Fuel Savings

The Perkins 2506C-E15TAG2 uses mechanical unit injectors combined with electronic control, providing accurate fuel delivery without unnecessary system complexity.

From an operator's perspective, this means:

• Stable combustion under variable load conditions
• Predictable fuel consumption during long running hours
• Reduced tuning sensitivity compared with fully complex systems

The turbocharged design with air-to-air aftercooling improves intake efficiency and supports consistent power output, especially in continuous-duty environments.

Built for Long-Hour & High-Load Operation

This engine is engineered with durability as a priority, making it suitable for projects where downtime is not acceptable.

Key operational benefits include:

• High compression ratio supporting reliable cold starts
• Heavy-duty cooling and lubrication systems designed for extended high-load operation
• Engine layout optimized for on-site maintenance access, reducing service time during overhauls or inspections

For maintenance managers, this translates into lower unexpected shutdown risk and easier service planning.

Complete On-Engine Equipment for Generator Integration

The Perkins 2506C-E15TAG2 is supplied with a practical, generator-ready configuration:

• Air intake filtration system
• Integrated engine protection system
• 24 V starting and charging system

Optional configurations allow adaptation to different project requirements, such as:

• Additional monitoring sensors
• Dual starting systems for higher reliability standards

This flexibility makes the engine easy to integrate into different genset designs without major modification.
