Used CAT Solar Turbines Centaur 40 Natural Gas Turbine Power Package – Approx. 3.7 MW

Manufacturer Information

Solar Turbines Incorporated – A Caterpillar Company

Solar Turbines Incorporated, a Caterpillar company, is a major global manufacturer of industrial gas turbine systems used for power generation, cogeneration, oil and gas operations, and other energy applications. Solar Turbines equipment is widely installed in industrial facilities requiring reliable on-site power and integration with heat-recovery and steam-generation systems.

Description

Available for sale is a used CAT Solar Turbines natural gas-fired turbine power package with a reported approximate output of 3.7 MW. The package consists of two (2) Solar Turbines Model Centaur 40 gas turbine units along with associated exhaust systems, gas-fired burner systems, and electrical infrastructure.

The turbines are configured for natural gas operation and have approximately 30,000 reported operating hours. The exhaust arrangement can be configured for direct venting or integration with compatible heat-recovery and steam-generation equipment, making the package suitable for conventional power generation as well as potential cogeneration / combined heat and power applications.

Included exhaust and gas-fired burner systems provide additional flexibility for facilities seeking to utilize turbine exhaust energy as part of a steam or thermal energy system.

The two turbine units are identified by Serial Numbers HG85083 and HG85093. This package offers an opportunity for industrial plants, utilities, energy projects, and large processing facilities seeking used natural gas turbine generating equipment.

Equipment clarification: Solar Centaur 40 units are industrial gas turbines. Although this package can be integrated with steam-generation equipment, the Centaur 40 turbines themselves should not be characterized as steam turbines.
