Caterpillar G3412 Generator: The Reliable, Clean, and Economical Power Option

A strong and reliable generator is crucial to a seamless and continuous system of production. A power outage can prove to be very costly in the production and commercial industry if it leads to a halt in production. Usually, diesel generators are used to provide backup and safeguards from potential revenue loss.

The caterpillar G3412 generator is something that serves the best interests of both industry and environment because not only does it provide solid power backup in case of an outage, but does so without polluting the environment with harmful gases. It is the best option when you want something that is economical, reliable and clean. It has a number of sustainable fuel types to choose from- natural gas, field gas, biogas or propane, to provide emergency power facilities. It also relies on these eco-friendly fuels alone to supplement necessary electrical power from grids.

The G3412 is also cost efficient and more affordable when compared to its diesel counterparts as it is dependent on fuels like biogas and propane which are quite cheap and affordable make it an economic option. It also follows the ‘Combined Heat and Power’ (CHP) approach which generates and thermal energy together, in a seamless, integrated manner. This ensures that the heat which is usually wasted while conventionally generating power is recovered and converted into useful energy. This greatly improves the efficiency of the system as it is successful in avoiding the losses that separately generating power and heat would have brought. Using natural gas is not only a cheap but convenient option as it can be easily stored in either a tank or sourced through pipes directly from local gas companies, guaranteeing continuous and uninterrupted operation.

The caterpillar G3412 generator is also quite easy to maintain as well as service. Though the initial cost of investment in this eco-friendly, fuel efficient generator is higher than the diesel or gasoline varieties, it is much more cost efficient in the longer run. The running cost of maintaining and running these generators are much lower than the diesel ones because of the cheap nature of fuel that it runs on. So, the initial high investment is offset quite easily. Moreover, the G3412 is likely to run for quite a long time and give have an impressive operational period, giving you good value for your money.

Lastly, belonging to a brand like Caterpillar, it guarantees great technical and after sales support for your product.
