Model History and Information: The Cat® 3516B is a large diesel generator set built around Caterpillar's V-16, four-stroke 3516B diesel engine paired with a Cat generator, for prime and standby electrical power generation rather than mobile earthmoving work. Caterpillar markets the package for mission-critical, continuous, standby, and prime applications such as hospitals, data centers, and remote sites, with standby and prime power ratings that vary by frequency and configuration. The complete generator set is factory-assembled and tested, is designed to accept a full rated block load in one step under NFPA 110 requirements, and meets ISO 8528-5 transient response standards. This 1:25 scale model reproduces the packaged generator set configuration.
