Model Jenbacher Type 3 - Gas Engines
THE NEXT GENERATION JENBACHER TYPE 3F ENGINE. The reference for robustness and reliability – now with higher efficiency! Based on our proven Type 3 platform established in 1988 and continuously developed ever since, the next generation Jenbacher Type 3F engine offers proven robustness and reliability while delivering more efficiency than ever. Jenbacher Type 3 proven - reliable - flexible ~11,000 Type 3 engines were delivered since 1988.
Building on its proven heritage, the new Type 3F 50 Hz engine now leads the way with next-generation technology innovation that delivers an up to 2 percentage point efficiency boost compared to earlier engine versions—up to 1,065 kWe—without sacrificing its proven reliability or robustness.
In addition to delivering efficiency as high as 43.3% when operating on pipeline gas, the Type 3F engine is optimized for reduced total hydrocarbon (THC) emissions, future-proof fuel flexibility, and enhanced serviceability.
Moreover, the latest 3F technology is retrofittable for the most of the installed Type 3 fleet.
New cylinder head (4V)
Optimized for better gas exchange and improved cooling, the new cylinder head also delivers reduced THC emissions, improved combustion, and more robust valve and valve seat materials.
New power unit
Our new aluminum piston design helps minimize crevice volume for reduced THC emissions, improved combustion, and reduced oil consumption. Other key aspects of the design include a new piston bowl shape, liner, and scraper ring.
New knock control & ignition system
This enhanced system delivers better engine protection, more efficient combustion, and easier serviceability.
New valve train (4V)
A new valve train with a floating bridge makes service easier.
New camshaft
Our new camshaft gives you increased charge efficiency and enhanced Miller timing. Plus, your THC emissions are reduced, and you get better gas exchange.
Combined Heat and Power Module (CHP Module) solutions allow customers to generate power and heat simultaneously at a very high total efficiencies, reaching 90% and even more.
Usual scope of supply:
- Engine and alternator installed on the frame
- Control panel, gas train
- Heat exchangers including exhaust gas heat exchanger
CHP Modules can generate hot water or steam at various parameters and can be integrated with your existing heat infrastructure. You can select the option that fits your project’s needs among the various heat recovery schemes provided by Jenbacher.
The scope of supply can be extended further with various balance of plant options (BOP) offered by Jenbacher, reach out to our specialists for help in selecting scope of supply and BOP options to fulfill your project’s needs.
CHP Modules can be installed inside a building or inside a container. To see more details about Jenbacher’s Containerized solutions, click here.
