TCG 2032B V16 gas engine with fast ramp-up option

TCG 2032B V16 gas engine with fast ramp-up option - 4.5MW_el gas engine for a quick start

• The feature of a fast ramp-up start is becoming increasingly important due to growing intermittent renewable capacity such as wind and solar
• The MWM TCG 2032B⁽²⁾ gas engine has a software option for a fast ramp-up start. This option allows to switch between normal and fast start requirement for each start request
• A fast start is a start in less than five minutes from start request to 100% load on the grid

⁽²⁾ Available for all TCG 2032B V16 standard voltages 6000 V to 11 kV @50Hz, only for natural gas

High reliability. Low operating costs – Gas Engine TCG 2032

High Efficiency and Low Lubricant Consumption

• High fuel utilization and low operation costs thanks to optimized chamber spark plug
• Increased efficiency through new closed crankcase ventilation that enables utilization of the blow-by gas
• High availability through long maintenance intervals: first maintenance after 4,000 h, major overhaul after 80,000 h
• TCG 2032: With its lubricant consumption of only 0.2 g/kWh up to 30 percent lower lubricant consumption compared to competitor products thanks to optimized tappet sealing, coke stripping rings and ring packages

Soot-Free Combustion Increases Plant Profitability

• Open combustion chamber with chamber spark plug for soot-free combustion
• Extended maintenance intervals for the exhaust gas heat exchanger
• No pre-combustion chamber with time-consuming maintenance and risk of failure
• No additional gas supply with increased gas pressure required for pre-combustion chamber

Few Interruptions Due to Long Maintenance Intervals

• No more than two interruptions a year due to scheduled maintenance
• Longest interval until major overhaul compared to competitors
• Use of Xchange components enables time savings of up to 75 percent during the major overhaul, resulting in reduced costs

High Availability - Gas Engine TCG 2032

New Turbocharger Technology Increases Genset Availability

• Improved output under non-ISO conditions
• High output of 4,500 kW_el possible through use of A140 high-pressure turbocharger
• Turbocharger achieves higher compression ratio and enables operation under full load with intake air of up to 45°C
• Exhaust gas waste gate enables constant performance with different intake air temperatures and setup altitudes
• Evening out of reserve boost pressure in relation to load results in higher efficiency and improved load response

Low Installation Costs - Gas Engine TCG 2032

Compact Engine Design for Easy Transport and Installation

• Extremely lean genset with compact dimensions, low noise emissions, and smooth running guarantees minimum installation costs
• Compared to competitors, the specific output/weight ratio is up to 40 percent better
• Lighter engine components eliminate need for strong crane
• Compared to competitors, TCG 2032 V16 is up to 30 percent shorter in length
• Low weight and compact dimensions enable easy transport even to remote destinations

Short Project Period - Gas Engine TCG 2032

Short Project Period Thanks to Compact Setup

• Pre-manufactured components directly from the manufacturer ensure quick and easy assembly on site
• Identical setup of the individual modules facilitates flexible adjustment of the plant output
• Modest need for space through compact design
• Plant planning and building from one source guarantees smooth, cost-efficient project rollout

Lower Service Costs - Gas Engine TCG 2032

Low Service Costs and a Lean Maintenance Concept

• Enhanced maintenance concept through easy access to the cylinder units
• Long service intervals and improved serviceability
• Low maintenance costs due to fewer engine parts, resulting in low maintenance overhead and spare parts requirement
• Lower maintenance overhead through open combustion chamber with pre-combustion chamber spark plug
