Key Benefits of the MWM TCG 4170 V20

  • Industry-Leading Electrical Efficiency: Up to 46 per cent, maximising energy yield and ROI.
  • Exceptional Operational Flexibility: Delivers reliable performance across extreme climates and varied applications, allowing seamless operation under rapidly changing or challenging site conditions.
  • Proven Robustness: Designed for high availability and minimal maintenance in demanding duty cycles.
  • Lower Lifetime Costs: Reduced fuel consumption and optimised maintenance through intelligent monitoring.
  • Future-Ready Control: Customisable TCS controls and the predictive capabilities of VisionLink®.

Unmatched Efficiency and Reliability

The TCG 4170 V20 redefines performance standards with an electrical output of up to 2,536kW and a remarkable total system efficiency of up to 89.6%. This exceptional efficiency translates directly into lower fuel consumption and reduced operating costs.

Designed for maximum robustness, the engine operates at full rated power in ambient temperatures up to 45 degrees Celsius, ensuring reliable performance in the world's most challenging environments.

Engineered for Critical Demand

With a rapid ramp-up capability and a 60% load step, the TCG 4170 V20 achieves full power in under five minutes. This makes it the ideal prime power or peaking reserve solution for industries where energy resilience is critical, including:

The engine offers superior fuel flexibility and is perfectly suited for both grid-parallel and island-mode operation, providing energy security and independence for Independent Power Producers (IPPs) and distributed generation projects.

Advanced Control and Digital Insight

Operators gain full command through the integrated TCS control system, available in tailored configurations to meet specific plant requirements. For proactive management, the MWM VisionLink® digital platform enables secure, remote real-time monitoring and performance analytics from anywhere in the world. This predictive tool helps prevent unplanned downtime by identifying potential issues early, safeguarding productivity and profitability. Both systems feature multi-layered security protocols against unauthorised access.
