Scope of supply:
* Provided technical data is for information only. Data ranges are calculated considering various gas quality levels and ambient conditions (standard or hot/tropical conditions, etc.).
Jenbacher can change the technical data unilaterally. In the case of such change, we will update the data on our pages as soon as we can.
Please reach out to our experts to get help with engines selection, obtain the technical parameters for your gas composition.
Output and efficiency at generator terminals. Energy input is according to DIN ISO 3046 and DIN 6271, respectively, with a tolerance of + 5%.
All data according to full load and subject to technical development and modification.
Based on emission values of 250 and 500 mg/Nm3 NOx at 5% O2 at dry exhaust gas.
Base for biogas and sewage gas versions: 65% CH4 / 35% CO2.
Base for landfill gas version: 55% CH4 / 40% CO2 / Rest N2.
Highlights of Jenbacher Type 6 engines
Type 6 engines are loaded with features that enhance heat recovery, assure stable combustion, reduce emissions, and increase efficiency—taking the Jenbacher line to new levels of performance.
- A centrally-located purged pre-combustion chamber helps provide optimal ignition conditions.
- The spark plug ignition energy is amplified in the pre-combustion chamber, facilitating stable and reliable combustion.
- Miller valve timing creates reduced compression temperature and an increased safety margin to knocking limits, providing improved ignition timing and high efficiency.
Scope of supply:
Scope of supply, dedicated for applications, which require power generation only. If you are looking for simultaneous power and heat generation, please consider Combined Heat and Power Module (CHP Module) scope of supply.
Minimum scope of supply for genset:
- Engine and alternator installed on the frame
- Control panel
- Gas train
The scope of supply can be extended further with various balance of plant options (BOP), reach out to our specialists for help in selecting scope of supply and BOP options to fulfill your project’s needs.
Gensets can be installed inside a building or inside a container. To see more details about our containerized solutions, click here.
Combined Heat and Power Module (CHP Module) solutions allow customers to generate power and heat simultaneously at a very high total efficiencies, reaching 90% and even more.
Usual scope of supply:
- Engine and alternator installed on the frame
- Control panel, gas train
- Heat exchangers including exhaust gas heat exchanger
CHP Modules can generate hot water or steam at various parameters and can be integrated with your existing heat infrastructure. You can select the option that fits your project’s needs among the various heat recovery schemes provided by Jenbacher.
