Tips When Buying a Baudouin Engine

1. Confirm the Engine Model

Do not purchase an engine based only on horsepower.

Confirm the exact model and configuration.

2. Check the Serial Number

The engine serial number can help identify the correct configuration and associated components.

3. Confirm Required kVA

For generator applications, provide the required generator rating in kVA, rather than only requesting an engine by horsepower.

4. Confirm Prime or Standby Duty

A standby-rated engine and a prime-power application should not automatically be treated as equivalent.

5. Check 50 Hz or 60 Hz

South African generator applications commonly require 50 Hz, but the required frequency must be confirmed for the specific project.

6. Check RPM

Generator engines may be configured for different operating speeds.

Confirm whether your application requires:

1,500 rpm
1,800 rpm
Another manufacturer-specified speed

7. Check Emissions Requirements

For off-highway equipment, emissions regulations can affect engine selection. Baudouin currently publishes different emissions configurations, including Stage V off-highway products.

8. Check Physical Dimensions

Before ordering a replacement engine, compare:

Overall length
Width
Height
Weight
Mounting points
Flywheel housing
Flywheel
Exhaust position
Intake position
Cooling arrangement

9. Check Coupling

For generator applications, confirm the SAE flywheel housing and coupling requirements.

10. Confirm Complete Engine Requirements

Ask whether your quotation includes:

Engine
ECU
Wiring harness
Control panel/interface
Starter motor
Alternator
Radiator
Fan
Air cleaner
Exhaust components
Mounting system
Flywheel
Flywheel housing

The correct contents depend on the requested engine package.
