A revolution in diesel power generation. 

Providing uncompromising power and efficiency in a compact package, the QSX15-Series is the first heavy-duty diesel engine with 24-valve dual overhead camshaft technology. Using 30% fewer parts than comparable diesels, it has been engineered to eliminate external lube, coolant and fuel lines for higher reliability at high power output.

Ideally suited to both open and enclosed applications in static or portable equipment, it can be matched to meet the specific duty cycle and operating conditions of any generator set.

Features & Benefits

Holset HX82 Turbocharging - Wastegated design optimizes operation across the torque curve with improved response.

Integrated Block Design - Integrated fluid circuits replace hoses and eliminate potential leaks.

High-Pressure Fuel Injection - Capable of over 1,900 bar (28,000 psi) for cleaner, more fuel-efficient combustion.

24-Valve Cylinder Head Four valves per cylinder for increased power with faster response at every rpm.

Coolpac Integrated Design - Products are supplied complete with cooling package and air cleaner kit for a complete power package. Each component has been specifically developed and rigorously tested for G-Drive products, ensuring high performance, durability and reliability.

Service and Support - G-Drive products are backed by an uncompromising level of technical support and after sales service, delivered through a world class service network.

To protect public health and conserve our planet's natural resources, legislation from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and regulatory agencies in the European Union (EU) has, for the past decade, required that pollutants produced by diesel engines - such as nitrogen oxides (NOx), hydrocarbons (HC) and particulate matter (PM) - be reduced.

Throughout this time, Cummins Inc. has been at the forefront of the move to meet these new standards, becoming:

  • the first manufacturer to introduce EPA Tier-2 and Tier-3 products to the market - ahead of the regulatory deadline;
  • the first manufacturer to introduce EU Stage IIIA compliant generator-drive diesel engines to Europe;
  • the leader in innovative emissions solutions that focus predominantly on in-cylinder design improvements to eliminate most of the NOx, HC and PM before they are formed.

As a result, our diesel engines are not only very clean, but also retain all of their performance advantages without exhaust after treatment strategies that add cost and complicate maintenance for end users.

G-Drive Engines

  • Mid-range (1.3 - 9L) medium-horsepower engines (16 to 476 hp), providing the broadest Tier 3 range which further reduce Tier 2 NOx levels by 38%
  • Heavy duty (11 - 15L) 415 to 755 hp engines powering commercial operations
  • High-horsepower (19 - 78L) 675 to 3700 hp at both 1500 and 1800 rpm, designed to meet Tier 2/Stage II emissions requirements for electronics and diagnostics, base engine and turbocharging, power cylinder and fuel systems
