Powering Mining Operations: Genelite Supplies Dual Cummins C450 Generators and 30,000L Fuel Tank

In the demanding environment of Western Australia’s Goldfields mining region, reliable power solutions are essential. Genelite has recently supplied two Cummins C450 diesel generators, each delivering 410kVA of standby power, along with a 30,000-litre self-bunded fuel tank, to support critical infrastructure at a major mining site.

Robust Power Generation with the Genuine Cummins C450

The genuine Cummins C450 generators are engineered for the highest-performance. Each unit is powered by a Cummins QSG12-G2 engine and paired with a Stamford S4G alternator, ensuring efficient and reliable power delivery. Key specifications include:

• Prime Power Output: 410 kVA / 328 kW
• Standby Power Output: 450 kVA / 360 kW
• Fuel Consumption: Approximately 82L per hour at 100% load
• Noise Level: 78 dB(A) at 1 meter
• Dimensions: 5093mm (L) x 1564mm (W) x 2375mm (H)
• Dry Weight: Approximately 4,436 kg

These generators are renowned for their reliability, the ideal choice when operating in harsh conditions, providing dependable power for mining operations that require consistent energy supply.

Having two generators on site not only means more power is available, but power is maintained even if one of the generators needs servicing.

Efficient Fuel Storage with 30,000L Self-Bunded Tank

To complement the generators, a 30,000L self-bunded fuel tank was supplied, offering secure and efficient on-site fuel storage. Key features of the tank include:

• Design: Double-walled construction for spill containment
• Compliance: Built to Australian Standards AS1940 and AS1692
• Accessibility: Integrated ladder and platform for safe access
• Security: Lockable pump bay with overfill protection and alarms
• Mobility: 20-foot container footprint for easy transportation

This high-capacity fuel storage solution ensures a continuous fuel supply, minimising downtime and enhancing operational efficiency.
