Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is the price of a 500kVA diesel generator?

The price depends on your specific requirements, including installation, Rating definitions ,features, and load profile. Please contact us for a personalized quote.

2. What industries use 500kVA generators?

These generators are used in manufacturing, healthcare, data centers, construction, education, and hospitality sectors.

3. How fuel-efficient are these generators?

The 500kVA Rolls Royce DG sets are among the most fuel-efficient in their segment. This is due to:

  • CRDI Technology: High-pressure Common Rail Direct Injection system ensures better combustion and fuel efficiency.
  • Fuel Consumption:
    • At 100% load: 105 litres/hour
    • At 75% load: 82.2 litres/hour
  • Fuel Efficiency Rate: Approximately 3.9 units per litre, which leads to significant operational cost savings over time.

4. Does Apollo Power Systems provide maintenance services?

Yes, Apollo Power Systems provides complete maintenance services. Highlights include:

  • Real-time remote monitoring and diagnostics via an internet-enabled app (through QR code scanning). Preventive maintenance alerts.
  • Long service intervals:
    • Air filter: 1000 hours or 2 years
    • Lube oil & filters: Every 500 hours or 2 years, whichever is earlier
  • No scheduled engine overhauls required, unlike competitors who typically need overhauls after 8000–10,000 hours.

5. What are the fuel efficiency comparisons?

Compared to competitors:

  • Better fuel efficiency: 3.9 units/litre stands out as one of the highest in this class
  • Technology edge: No other generator in this range currently offers CRDI technology, which ensures consistent fuel performance throughout the life of the DG set.
  • Operational Savings: Estimated ₹1.7 lakhs saved annually on fuel and O&M costs when compared to similar models from competitors.

6. How can I maintain my 500kVA generator?

To maintain your 500kVA Rolls Royce DG set for optimal performance:

  • Follow service intervals:
    • Air filter: Replace every 1000 hours or 2 years
    • Lube oil & filters: Replace every 500 hours or 2 years
  • Use the QR-enabled app for:
    • Remote monitoring
    • Diagnostics
    • Preventive maintenance alerts
  • Ensure clean operation:

    The closed-loop crankcase ventilation prevents oil leaks and radiator clogging.

  • Use genuine silicon gaskets to prevent oil leakage and reduce maintenance frequency.
  • Fuel system care:
