Pramac GDW280V/FS2 220kW Diesel Generator

The Pramac GDW280V/FS2 is a powerful three-phase diesel generator developed for demanding commercial, industrial, data-centre and emergency backup applications. Delivering 220kW (275kVA) emergency standby power and 200kW (250kVA) prime power, it provides a reliable electricity supply for factories, warehouses, construction projects, agricultural facilities, commercial premises and critical infrastructure.

When specified with the optional Data Centre Power configuration, the generator can also deliver 200kW (250kVA) DCP. This rating is intended for qualifying data-centre installations where a reliable power infrastructure is available and the generator may be required to supply variable or continuous electrical loads for unlimited operating hours.

Powered by a proven Volvo TAD841GE diesel engine, the generator combines strong performance with dependable operation. The 7.7-litre, six-cylinder in-line engine features turbocharged aspiration, electronic speed governing and an efficient water-cooling system. It operates at 1,500rpm and complies with Stage II exhaust-emission requirements.

The Volvo engine is paired with a premium Mecc Alte ECO38 2M4 C alternator. Its brushless, four-pole design incorporates Class H insulation, IP23 protection and a voltage tolerance of ±1%, helping it deliver consistent and stable electrical output under changing load conditions.

The generator produces 400/230V three-phase electricity at 50Hz, with a power factor of 0.8. Its electrical system provides a nominal current of 361A, a maximum current of 397A and protection through a 400A circuit breaker.

Fuel consumption is approximately 41.79 litres per hour at 75% prime load and 53.30 litres per hour at 100% prime load. Optional fuel tanks ranging from 350 to 2,200 litres allow operating autonomy to be matched to the requirements of the installation, with calculated running times of up to 52.64 hours at 75% prime load.

The GDW280V/FS2 is available in open, soundproof canopy and extra-silent canopy configurations. The standard canopy version produces a noise pressure level of 68dB(A) at seven metres, while the extra-silent version reduces this to just 64dB(A) at seven metres.

Available control solutions include an Automatic Control Panel (ACP) with Automatic Mains Failure functionality and a Modular Parallel Panel (MPP). These control options provide comprehensive generator monitoring, protection, event logging, remote connectivity and support for parallel installations containing up to 32 generating sets.

Manufactured in accordance with applicable ISO 8528 requirements, the Pramac GDW280V/FS2 is an excellent choice for organisations requiring powerful, dependable and professionally engineered prime, data-centre or emergency standby power.
