    Full Details

    When power reliability is non-negotiable, the Caterpillar 3406DI Diesel Generator Set delivers the industrial-grade performance your operation demands. This pre-owned 260KW powerhouse combines legendary Caterpillar engineering with exceptional value, offering you a premium power solution at a fraction of the cost of new equipment.

    Virtually New Condition with Minimal Run Time

    With approximately 250 hours since new, this generator set is just getting broken in. Most generators don't reach peak efficiency until after their initial run-in period—meaning you're getting a fully seasoned unit that's barely been used. This exceptionally low hour count translates to decades of reliable service ahead, making this an outstanding investment for your business.

    Powerful Performance You Can Count On

    The Caterpillar 3406DI engine is renowned throughout the power generation industry for its durability, fuel efficiency, and consistent performance under demanding conditions. This 260KW unit provides:

    • 260 Kilowatts of Prime Power – More than enough capacity for manufacturing facilities, commercial buildings, agricultural operations, or emergency backup applications
    • 60Hz Frequency – Standard North American power frequency for seamless integration with all your equipment
    • Dual Voltage Configuration (240/480V) – Flexible voltage options allow you to power diverse electrical loads without additional transformers
    • Direct Injection Technology – Superior fuel efficiency and reduced emissions compared to older combustion systems

    The Caterpillar Advantage

    When you choose Caterpillar, you're choosing a name that's synonymous with reliability. The 3406 series has proven itself in the most challenging environments worldwide—from remote mining operations to critical healthcare facilities. Key advantages include:

    • Extensive Parts Network – Caterpillar parts and service support available virtually anywhere, minimizing downtime
    • Proven Longevity – These engines regularly exceed 20,000 hours with proper maintenance
    • High Resale Value – Caterpillar generators maintain their value better than virtually any other brand
    • Fuel Efficiency – Lower operating costs mean faster return on investment

    Ideal Applications

    This versatile generator set is perfectly suited for:

    • Manufacturing and industrial facilities requiring reliable standby or prime power
    • Commercial buildings, office complexes, and retail centers
    • Healthcare facilities where power interruption is not an option
    • Agricultural operations including dairy farms, grain dryers, and irrigation systems
    • Construction sites and remote work locations
    • Data centers and telecommunications facilities
    • Emergency services and municipal applications

    Exceptional Value Proposition

    At $19,500, this pre-owned Caterpillar 3406DI represents extraordinary value. Compare this to over $100,000 for a new unit with similar specifications. You're saving tens of thousands of dollars while getting essentially new equipment with a quarter-century of proven reliability ahead.
