The 501 Engine
With a power range from 3.9 to 6.4 MW, the 501K range of engines draws upon 40 years of evolution and derived from the T56 engines.
The aero-derivative design of the 501-K series engine provides a lightweight, modular product that helps lower operation costs through improved fuel consumption, extended hot section life and ease of maintenance.
All new 501 gas generators can be configured to run on gas, liquid or dual fuels at thermal efficiencies of up to 31%. Dry Low Emissions (DLE) technology is available.
