Overview#
The Triton Power TP-P150-T3-UL is a 150 kW diesel standby generator built on the Perkins 1106D-E70TAG2 turbocharged and aftercooled six-cylinder engine (7.01 L displacement) with a Leroy Somer alternator. It carries UL2200 listing and meets EPA Tier 3 for emergency stationary applications. Available in single-phase (120 kW at 120/240V) and three-phase (150 kW at 277/480V) configurations.
The step up to a six-cylinder Perkins 1106D platform gives this unit smoother operation and better load-step response compared to four-cylinder generators in the same power class. Fuel consumption is 39.7 L/hr (10.49 GPH) at full load, dropping to 22.2 L/hr (5.87 GPH) at half load.
Our service experience#
The Perkins 1106D engine is a step up from the 1104D four-cylinder found in Triton's smaller models, offering the six-cylinder smoothness and better transient load handling that healthcare and larger commercial facilities require. In our Northern California service territory, the 150 kW class is popular for mid-size medical clinics, schools, and government buildings. The Perkins dealer network provides strong parts availability, and the 1106D shares many service procedures with the smaller 1104D platform.
