30-1250kVA Weichai Marine Generator for Vessels

Product Overview

The 30-1250kVA Weichai Marine Generator combines Weichai’s expertise in heavy-duty engine manufacturing with rigorous maritime compliance, delivering reliable power for commercial, naval, and luxury vessels. Powered by Weichai’s marine-specific WP10CD (30-500kVA) and 12M33CD (500-1250kVA) engines—engineered to withstand saltwater corrosion and constant vibration—it achieves ≤88dB(A) noise levels (at 7m) and outstanding 210g/kWh fuel efficiency (tested on 1000kVA model at 75% load). Its marine-grade anti-corrosion treatment (including zinc coating and seawater-resistant alloys) and IMO Tier II emissions compliance ensure long-term reliability in harsh marine environments.

Features

High Performance & Load Handling: Supports 100% motor starting capability without voltage drop, thanks to its oversized alternator and advanced voltage regulator—ideal for powering propulsion systems, winches, and auxiliary equipment like refrigeration units on commercial vessels .

Remote Monitoring & Diagnostics: Weichai’s Marine Insight system provides real-time performance data (fuel consumption, engine temperature, vibration levels) via cloud-based platform, enabling predictive maintenance that can forecast component failures up to 90 days in advance—minimizing downtime during voyages .

Certifications: Certified by leading maritime authorities including Lloyd’s Register (LR) and DNV GL, with optional approvals from ABS (American Bureau of Shipping) and BV (Bureau Veritas), ensuring compliance with global maritime safety and environmental regulations .

Applications

Commercial Shipping: Powers cargo ships, tankers, and container vessels, with redundant power systems (N+1 configuration) to ensure safety-critical operations like navigation and communication remain functional during engine faults.

Yacht Propulsion: Delivers quiet operation (≤85dB(A) in passenger cabins) for luxury yachts, with vibration-dampening mounts and acoustic insulation reducing hull-borne noise to enhance passenger comfort.

Offshore Support Vessels: Provides reliable auxiliary power for offshore cranes, drilling equipment, and crew living quarters, with 25,000-hour overhaul intervals for main engines—critical for minimizing service disruptions in remote offshore locations .

FAQ

Q: What is the typical response time during grid failure?

A: Equipped with a high-speed marine-grade starter, it achieves ≤10 seconds start-up time, with full load synchronization within 15 seconds—essential for maintaining power to navigation systems and safety equipment during unexpected grid losses at sea .

Q: Can it operate in extreme weather conditions?

A: Yes, it undergoes rigorous testing for -30°C to 50°C ambient temperatures, 10m/s wind resistance, and 95% humidity, ensuring reliable operation in storms, monsoons, and polar shipping routes .
