Beginning 1March 2005, through approximately 1March 2006, certain packaged engine generator sets were shipped with incorrect reactance and per unit impedance characteristics imprinted on the generator film. Other data for the generator that is imprinted on the generator film may also be incorrect.

The 118-8452 Film is the affected part number. The film is printed specifically for each generator.

Note: Reactances and per unit impedances may be used by engineers, contractors, service personnel, maintenance personnel, and other people in order to calculate generator response characteristics and available fault current in an electrical distribution system. Other data may be used in order to determine the proper generator operation and application.

Caterpillar's Technical Marketing Information (TMI) system shall be considered as the one safe source for the generator reactance and per unit impedance characteristics.

As dealers determine or are made aware of the need to provide generator reactance and/or per unit impedance information, or as dealers determine or are made aware that other information on the generator film may be incorrect, they shall:

  • Consult with TMI.

  • Compare the TMI data to that printed on the generator film.

If any discrepancies are noted, then contact the Application Support Center (ASC) in order to request a new generator film.

Please provide the ASC with the:

  • Generator arrangement number

  • Generator serial number

  • Package sales order number

The new generator film will be created and sent with a new protective overlay film at no charge.

In order to obtain new generator films for each generator purchased on or after 1March 2005, please submit one request to the ASC providing the above information.

A corrective action has been developed and carried out for the generator film printing system.
