Generator Source Purchases Four 1500 kW Cummins Units From Data Center

1.5 MW Cummins Gensets Feature Many Upgrades, Low Hours.

Generator Source recently added four 1500 kW Cummins generators to our inventory, originally from a data center that was upgrading to larger units. These units, 91398, 91399, 91400 and 91401, are in exceptional condition and come equipped with all the necessary features for top-tier performance.
 
As part of a data center package, they came complete include maximum sound attenuation, enclosure space heaters, fire alarm systems, UPS-starting systems, and more—making them prime assets for our clients seeking robust, reliable power solutions.

Cummins-1-(Custom).JPGThese units have numerous upgrades,” said Eric Geiser, account manager. “Typically, the data centers order generators with all the bells and whistles as they cannot ever be down, even for a second.”
 
“These units were set up in a redundant parallel system in case one unit were to fail, for whatever reason, while under emergency power, the redundant generator would pick up the slack and immediately come online to support the load,” added Geiser. “We purchased all (4) units as they were all slotted for replacement due to their client’s request.”
 
Why This Purchase Stands Out
 
This acquisition came with its own set of unique challenges. While the client handled the decommissioning and fuel removal, we hired the local crane company to perform the heavy lifting. Due to seized bolts on the exhaust, a mobile welder was also called in to assist with the removal. The site itself was extremely tight, requiring careful maneuvering.
 
The job took a coordinated effort involving two cranes: one to remove the generators from their pads and load them onto a Goldhofer trailer, and another to offload the units for pickup. Due to space constraints, we arranged a lane closure in front of the building since the trucks couldn't fit on-site.
 
Despite the challenges, the operation was executed flawlessly. The generators were safely transported for their next chapter in our inventory. These well-maintained units are now available for purchase, offering high-quality, feature-rich power solutions to future clients.
 
When time frames are tight and the site conditions are challenging, Generator Source has the expertise and resources to handle any situation.
