Overview
A Diesel Generator Set - PERKINS BC-P563D-60B (450 kW / 563 kVA) standby rating defines the BC-P563D-60B, a diesel genset built around a 2506C-E 15TAG2 engine, open type configuration, set for 50/60 Hz and three-phase four-wire, at 110/208 V – 277/480 V.
This rating is used as whole-plant backup or as on-site prime generation: mid-size industrial plants, distribution centres and infrastructure projects whose base load exceeds what a compact set can carry. BCP’s Perkins range spans 10 to 2500 kVA with Perkins power, intended for standby duty and for extended running depending on how the fuel and cooling system is specified.
Typical applications
- Mid-size industrial plants
- Distribution centres and cold storage
- Mining and quarries
- Infrastructure projects
- On-site generation for remote plants
Standby and prime ratings
The standby rating (563 kVA / 450 kW) is what the set delivers during a grid outage, for a limited number of hours a year and without sustained overload. The prime rating (PRP) allows continuous duty with varying load. Sizing starts from the real load in kW, corrected by power factor, with headroom left for motor starting.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between standby and prime?
Standby is the power available in an emergency, limited to a set number of hours a year; prime is what the set can sustain continuously with varying load. A set sized for standby should not be used as prime generation without re-checking the duty.
What voltage and connection does the BC-P563D-60B deliver?
It is offered at 110/208 V – 277/480 V, three-phase four-wire, 50/60 Hz. Final nameplate voltage is fixed at order stage according to the site network and the transfer arrangement.
Can it run in parallel with another set or with the grid?
Yes, with a synchronising panel and coupling protection. Parallel operation requires agreeing load-sharing modes, protection settings and the transfer sequence before the panel is built.
