Overview#
The Triton Power TP-P750-T2-UL is a 750 kW diesel standby generator built on the Perkins 2806C-E18TTAG7 twin-turbocharged and aftercooled six-cylinder engine (18.1 L displacement, bore 145 mm x stroke 183 mm, 14:1 compression ratio). The twin-turbo configuration produces 821 kWm (1,101 HP) at rated RPM — the maximum output from the Perkins 2806C platform. It is paired with a Leroy Somer alternator, carries UL2200 listing, and meets EPA Tier 2 for emergency stationary applications.
Available in three-phase only at 277/480V, 120/208V, and 120/240V. Fuel consumption is 189 L/hr (49.93 GPH) at full load, dropping to 100 L/hr (26.42 GPH) at half load.
The twin-turbo Perkins 2806C#
The "TT" in the 2806C-E18TTAG7 designation indicates twin turbochargers, distinguishing this from the single-turbo TAG3 variant used in Triton's 600 kW model. Both share the same 18 L inline-six block, bore, and stroke — the twin-turbo arrangement enables the higher 750 kW output while maintaining the same parts commonality for routine service items.
Our service experience#
At 750 kW, this unit represents the ceiling of the Perkins 2806C platform. It competes with Caterpillar C18-based generators and Cummins QSK23 offerings in the same power class. For large commercial campuses, hospitals, and data center facilities in Northern California that need 750 kW standby, the Triton's Perkins-based value proposition is compelling — the engine platform is well-supported by the Perkins dealer network, and the twin-turbo 2806C has a strong field track record across multiple generator brands.
