A major advantage of containerized gensets is physical protection. They safeguard the generator from dust, moisture, rain, and accidental damage—making them excellent for remote or open environments.
3. Impressive Power-to-Fuel Ratio
The CAT C15 power unit delivers strong output while maintaining a controlled fuel burn rate, which significantly reduces operational costs for long-term users.
4. Easy Maintenance & Global Service Support
Caterpillar’s worldwide service network and easily available spares make the C15 extremely convenient to maintain.
Where CAT C15 Generators Are Most Commonly Used
The CAT C15 is versatile and used across industries such as:
- Marine auxiliary & deck operations
- Industrial manufacturing plants
- Mining & quarrying sites
- Oilfield & drilling platforms
- Commercial and residential standby power
- Infrastructure projects
- Remote site power stations
Its containerized format makes it very appealing for offshore, on-site, and mobile applications.
Buying a Used CAT C15 Generator? Here’s What to Check
When purchasing a used unit, especially from global suppliers, always verify:
1. Actual Running Hours
Lower running hours ensure longer remaining life and fewer maintenance requirements.
2. Load-Test Results
A proper load test proves generator stability under real-world conditions.
3. Alternator Output & Functionality
Ensure voltage regulation, insulation performance, and rotor health meet acceptable standards.
4. Container & Structural Condition
This is extremely important for containerized gensets, as structural damage can affect noise levels, protection, and internal temperature.
5. Engine Serial Numbers
Validate the unit’s authenticity and history through CAT’s records.
At Abhi Marine, all units are tested before dispatch and are available for inspection upon request.
