The US Army is seeking a commercial diesel generator set with a 600kW standby power rating at 60Hz. The generator set should have a duty rating for standby power, emission certification, and EPA Tier 2 compliance. The set should also have a UL 2200 listing, a voltage of 277/480, and a 3-phase, 4-wire configuration. The alternator should be 60Hz, wye, and 480 volts. The generator set should also have an alternator heater, a steel sound-attenuated level 2 enclosure, and an exhaust system. The enclosure should be green, and the cooling air outlet should be horizontal. The distribution panel should be prewired with AC features, and the fuel tank should be 2400 gallons, UL142 compliant, and have a high fuel fill alarm. The control mounting should be left-facing, and the power command 2.3 controller should have an LCD control display. The stop switch should be emergency and externally mounted, and the signals should have auxiliary 8 inputs/8 outputs. The circuit breaker or entrance box should be right-only, and the terminal box should be low voltage, left-none. The engine air cleaner should be normal duty, and the external battery charger should be 12 amps, regulated. The engine cooling should be radiator, 50C ambient, and the shutdown should be low coolant level. The coolant heater should be 208/240/480 volts AC, below 40F ambient temperature. The genset warranty should be 2 years base, and the literature should be in English.
