Overview#

The Triton Power TP-P450-T3-UL is a 450 kW standby / 405 kW prime diesel generator powered by the Perkins 2506D-E15TAG1 turbocharged six-cylinder engine (15.2 L displacement) paired with a Leroy Somer alternator. It meets EPA Tier 3 emissions standards for emergency stationary applications and carries UL2200 listing. The Perkins 2500 Series engine platform is designed specifically for power generation duty, with a heavy-duty block and crankshaft rated for continuous operation.

Available in three-phase configurations at 120/208V and 277/480V, this unit serves large commercial campuses, hospitals, data centers, and industrial facilities that need 450 kW of standby capacity.

Our service experience#

The Perkins 2506D is the 15-liter inline-six from the 2500 Series, a purpose-built power generation platform also used by FG Wilson and other major integrators. At 450 kW, this unit competes with Caterpillar C15-based generators and Cummins QSX15 offerings. In Northern California, the 400-500 kW class serves large office campuses, hospitals, and distribution centers. The Perkins dealer network provides comprehensive support for the 2500 Series, and the engine's generator-specific design — including integrated governor and electrical system — simplifies installation and maintenance.
