Maintenance parts are as crucial in the engine room as the expensive equipment. For the overall safety and functioning of the Cat engine and associated equipment, fleet owners rely solely on genuine Cat Maintenance Parts. PM kits are a boon in your toolbox to conduct routine engine diagnosis, documentation, and unavoidable maintenance jobs.
In this edition of our guide to marine engine and vessel management, we present an extensive guide to Cat planned maintenance kits (systems). Read this complete guide to check out the available options for your engine module and electrical accessories. At Alfa Marine Spare Parts, our technical engineers believe that only genuine products and compliant parts from the marine engine brand are sufficient for ensuring safety and an extended lifecycle.
Uses and Significance of Cat Generator PM Kits
Caterpillar planned maintenance kits comprise a set of essential tools to aid technicians at work during an overhaul schedule. It is all about choosing the exact kit based on your generator set model, and the rest is easy to handle. Using the right parts ensures effortless integration while offering an extended lifecycle for the entire machinery setup. The parts from these kits typically cover up to 250-500 hours of OMM maintenance interval (equivalent to a span of 1 year). However, the exact interval may differ from one engine model to another. Expect the following components inside the packet:
- Filters – Air filter, Fuel filter, and Oil Filter
- Spark plugs
- Customized fluid mixes
- Water Separator
- Primary and secondary electrical repair components
Take your vessel’s powering system to the next level during scheduled repairs and maintenance with our genuine Cat products. These fully customizable kits are available at our online store at competitive market prices. Here is how to obtain the exact power maintenance kit for your engine and generator set. To do so, you need to provide the engine model and the serial number prefix of the generator set to procure the exact kit for your Cat power system.
