15.6kVA (15kW) Cummins RMP Diesel Generator 15RMP-1050A

The 15RMP-1050A is a Cummins RMP diesel generator set rated at 15.6kVA (15kW). It is designed to the MIL-DTL-32496 military specification, runs on multiple fuels and starts on a 24 volt system with a NATO slave connection.

Key features

• Multi-fuel capability covers JP-8, JP-4, DF-1, DF-2 and DF-A, which gives flexibility where the fuel supply varies.
• Automatic synchronisation with two-button paralleling lets the set share a load with other compatible sets.
• The Advanced Digital Control System (ADCS) provides built-in diagnostics and prognostics, which help identify faults and developing problems.
• Networked automatic start and stop capability allows the set to be started and stopped under network control instead of by hand.
• High-altitude electromagnetic pulse survivability is part of the design, which addresses the risk of a pulse event disabling unprotected electronics.
• A low infrared and noise signature suits operations where the set needs to be less conspicuous in the field.

What it will run

At 15.6kVA (15kW), the 15RMP-1050A typically supports a command or communications post, field workshop equipment and general power for a small camp. Motors draw several times their running current as they start, so find the starting figure on each compliance plate and check it against the set's rating. Send us your load list, including the voltage and phase your equipment needs and whether you plan to run sets in parallel, and we will help with sizing.

The 15RMP-1050A suits defence and government field power, command and communications posts, and commercial or remote sites that specify a military-specification set.
