Cat gen set receives UL listing

Several of Caterpillar's stationary engine generator set models were recently listed in accordance with Underwriters Laboratories (UL) Standard for Safety, UL 2200. Developed by Underwriters Laboratories, UL 2200 represents the first industry wide, product safety requirement in the U.S. for stationary engine generator sets rated 600 volts and less.

While previous Cat gen set designs already met or exceeded many standards prior to UL 2200, Caterpillar made the investment to have UL perform formal, periodic audits of its world-wide gen set packaging facilities.

UL inspected the first UL2200 Listed engine generator set package in February at the Caterpillar packaging plant in Griffin, GA. In March, it became the first UL2200 Listed engine generator shipped from a Caterpillar facility.

Cat UL2200 Listed engine generator set packages comply with construction requirements and operational guidelines of UL Standards for control panels, insulation systems and fuel tanks. Select Cat engine generator set enclosures are designed and thoroughly tested and evaluated to meet UL requirements for weather protection, cooling and combustion, air supply and corrosion resistance.
