Cummins Diesel Generator

It is often beneficial to know what generator model number you have when contacting a Cummins dealer, distributor, or any other power generation service provider for ongoing service, manuals, maintenance, or parts.

Finding a generator model number can sometimes be a challenge. To quickly find a model number, it is imperative to know what engine model the generator set has. The engine model is located on the generator nameplate. The table below will quickly provide the generator model number for an engine set.

To use the table:

Sometimes the generator name plate can be damaged, or the name plate is missing completely. Cummins manufacturers engines as a primary business. Examples of these applications are trucking, generators and marine propulsion. If the generator nameplate is missing, check the engine for data tag information. Search on the engine.

Example:

A facility manger is searching for the generator model number that is powered by a 4B3.9 Cummins engine. The nameplate specifications indicate it is a 38 kW, 60 Hz generator. Using the engine model and associated specifications, the table indicates the generator set model number is C40D6.

The table is designed for an engine model number search. Contact Area Energy if you need assistance in obtaining generator information for repair or parts purchase.
