4-Cylinder Engine Configuration
Inline-4 Architecture & Firing Order
In-line four-cylinder configuration with a 1-3-4-2 firing order. The same cylinder arrangement is used across the ZH490G, ZH4102G, ZH4102ZG and R4105ZP engine models.
Bore & Displacement Options
Bore and stroke range from 90 × 100 mm to 105 × 125 mm, with total displacement from 2.544 L to 4.33 L across the available engine models.
Direct Injection & Aspiration
All models use direct fuel injection. ZH490G and ZH4102G are naturally aspirated, while ZH4102ZG and R4105ZP use turbocharged intake configurations.
Lubrication & Rotation
All four models use combined pressure-and-splash lubrication. Crankshaft rotation is counterclockwise when viewed from the output end.
Soundproof Enclosure & Noise Control
Soundproof Configuration:
Integrated into soundproof generator sets for reduced operating noise and outdoor use.
Noise Performance:
Applicable configurations can achieve ≤70 dB(A) at 7 meters under rated-load conditions, depending on the engine, alternator, enclosure and operating environment.
Vibration & Weather Protection:
Sound-absorbing materials, anti-vibration mounts and weather-resistant sealing help reduce noise, vibration and rain entry.
Service Access:
Wide-opening doors provide convenient access to engine and generator components for routine maintenance.
Fuel, Cooling & Operating Performance
The four engine models cover a 40–60 kW rated power range at 2,000–2,400 r/min, allowing selection according to the required generator-set output and operating conditions.
Power & Speed Selection
ZH490G provides 40 kW at 2,400 r/min, while ZH4102G, ZH4102ZG and R4105ZP provide 42–60 kW at 2,000 r/min. Naturally aspirated and turbocharged configurations are available for different power requirements.
Fuel & Cooling
Fuel consumption is rated at ≤243–251.6 g/kWh depending on the engine model and operating condition. All four models use forced water cooling to maintain stable engine temperature during continuous operation.
Control & Protection
Controller Options
Manual, automatic, ATS-compatible and remote-monitoring controller configurations are available for different generator-set operating requirements.
Remote Monitoring & Communication
The controller supports Modbus RTU for connection to compatible remote monitoring and control systems.
Engine Protection
The control system provides protection for low oil pressure, high coolant temperature and overspeed conditions.
Fuel Level Warning
An integrated fuel-level sensor provides a low-fuel warning through the control panel before the fuel supply is depleted.
Generator & Electrical Configuration
Alternator Options
Generator sets can be configured with Stamford, Leroy Somer, Marathon, Mecc Alte and selected domestic alternator brands according to project requirements.
Voltage & Frequency
Electrical output can be configured from 220V to 690V, with 50Hz or 60Hz options according to the selected generator configuration.
Output Configuration
The generator-set electrical configuration can be specified according to the application, including the required phase and matching alternator arrangement.
Fuel Tank Configuration
Fuel tank capacity can be specified according to the required operating time and generator-set configuration.
Applications
Concrete mixers, water pumps, air compressors and temporary site equipment.
Irrigation pumps and agricultural processing equipment.
Auxiliary power for remote facilities, mining sites and dewatering systems.
Telecom base stations, municipal facilities and standby power systems.
Quality Control
Incoming & Dimensional Inspection
Raw materials and key engine components undergo incoming and dimensional inspection before production and assembly.
Machining & Component Testing
Critical components are checked through cylinder block pressure testing, crankshaft dynamic balancing, fuel injection pump calibration and injector testing.
System Testing
Cooling-system leakage, lubrication pressure and electric starting systems are checked before final performance testing.
Performance Verification
Generator sets undergo noise verification, rated-load performance testing, continuous running tests and fuel consumption checks before shipment.

FAQ
Q: What engine oil is recommended for standard operation?
A: SAE 15W-40 diesel engine oil is recommended for operation in temperate climates.
Q: Can the control system connect to remote monitoring systems?
A: Yes. The controller supports Modbus RTU for compatible remote monitoring systems.
Q: What technical documents are supplied with the generator set?
A: Electrical wiring diagrams and structural dimensions are supplied in English. Customized manuals and rating plates are available subject to engineering review.
Q: Is low fuel level monitored by the control system?
A: Yes. A fuel-level sensor sends a warning to the control panel before the fuel supply is depleted.
Q: Can maintenance kits be supplied with the unit?
A: Yes. Standard maintenance kits, including fuel and oil filters, can be ordered with the generator set.
