Perkins 4016-61TRG3A Diesel Engine | 1500 RPM 2000kW Power Solution for Mining & Generator UseProduct Description

Key Highlights

  • Genuine Perkins diesel engine 4000 series with high power density and low fuel consumption.
  • Built for power generators, mining sites, data centers, and oilfield operations.
  • Meets Stage IIIA / Tier 3 emission standards, upgradeable with SCR for stricter regions.
  • Long 30,000-hour overhaul life for outstanding reliability.
  • Proven in Ghana, South Africa, and Tanzania under heavy-duty use.

Core Technical Features & Design Advantages

The Perkins diesel engine  is a 16-cylinder V-type power unit with 61L displacement, meeting EU Stage IIIA and US Tier 3 standards. Its turbocharged and aftercooled design delivers 2000kW (2680HP) at 1500rpm with over 9500N·m torque. The advanced common rail fuel injection system (up to 1800bar) and electronic control module (ECM) enhance fuel efficiency by 12%.

Built from compacted graphite iron and refined via FEA analysis, it offers a 30,000-hour overhaul interval. The dual-circuit cooling system ensures reliable operation from -32°C to 50°C — ideal for Perkins generators in Ghana, Tanzania, and South Africa.

Typical Application Scenarios

The Perkins diesel generator powered by the 4016-61TRG3A is ideal for 2000kVA standby systems. In a Ghana data center, it achieved 72-hour continuous runtime at 85% load with 198g/kWh fuel rate and <±0.5% voltage fluctuation.

In mining equipment such as the Liebherr R9800 excavator, it maintains power with only 7% derate at 3000m altitude. For marine applications, response time improves by 0.8s, making it perfect for frequent speed-change operations. With an optional SCR kit, the unit meets Stage IV emission standards, ensuring compliance for Perkins engine dealers in Africa.

Maintenance & Operation Guidelines

  • Fuel System: Replace fine filter every 500 hours to maintain fuel quality.
  • Lubrication: Change oil every 500 hours or annually using 15W-40 CJ-4 oil; maintain pressure between 3.5–5.5bar.
  • Air System: Dual-stage air filters; inspect pre-filter daily in dusty environments.
  • Cooling: Use 50% glycol coolant and maintain pH between 8.5–10.5.
  • Diagnostics: Diagmaster software monitors 128 real-time data points; injector calibration needed if deviation exceeds 5%.
  • Overhaul: Crankshaft end play should remain between 0.10–0.30mm to prevent bearing wear.
