This makes the setup powerful and straightforward at the same time. With an empty weight of 12,990 kg, a full weight of 13,870 kg, and 67 dB(A), it is prepared for heavy-duty work. - ### High energy security through dual configuration The twinset consists of two independently deployable generators in one container, ensuring continued power supply even during maintenance or failure of one unit. - ### Flexible deployment The two generators can be operated individually or simultaneously, depending on the required load. - ### Efficient fuel consumption The integrated switchgear automatically synchronises the generators and adjusts output to demand, reducing fuel consumption. ## Technical specifications Power 1,000 kVA **This Twinset has a power of 2x 500 kVA.** The power of a generator is expressed in kVA. To calculate the required power, you can use the following guidelines: a. 100 kVA = 80 kW = 144 amp (cos-phi 0.8). b. For lighting/heating, calculate 20% more (cos-phi 1). c. An electric motor can (depending on type and application) demand up to 8x its power when starting under load. A generator can very briefly deliver 2x its nominal power. Connection(s) (output) 2x set Powerlock, terminal connections A generator can be connected in different ways. Generators up to 100 kVA are equipped with a wall socket and voltage rail. From 100 kVA, only the voltage rail can be used. The wall socket goes up to 125 A. Powerlock is also possible. A separate connection per ground. Dimensions (L x W x H) 6.06 x 2.44 x 2.6 m Dimensions stand for length x width x height. Weight (empty) 12,990 kg This is the weight without fuel. Weight (full) 13,870 kg This is the weight with fuel. Fuel tank capacity 1,000 l **This Twinset has a tank capacity of 2x 500 l.** The tank capacity indicates how much fuel the internal or external tank of a generator has at its disposal. Diesel consumption is approximately 20 liters per 100 kVA consumed, meaning a 50 kVA generator that is half-loaded uses about 5 liters per hour. Fuel consumption 200 L/h at 75% output Calculated at 75% load of both engines in twin configuration. Fuel HVO, GTL, Biodiesel Generators run on fuel. Various types of fuels are possible, such as standard diesel, GTL synthetic diesel, HVO100 biofuel, biogas, and methanol. Noise level (at 7 m) 67 dB(A) The noise level is expressed in dB(A), which is a weighted scale corresponding to human hearing. The level is measured at a distance of 7 meters. ## Frequently rented together [![Distribution box 6x 32 A, 6x 230 V - front](https://d214mxx6i7ojph.cloudfront.net/eyJidWNrZXQiOiJicmVkZW5vb3JkLXByb2QtYnVja2V0Iiwia2V5IjoiaW1hZ2VzL3Byb2R1Y3QvRGlzdHJpYnV0aW9uLWJveC02eC0zMi1BLTZ4LTIzMC1WLWZyb250LmpwZyIsImVkaXRzIjp7ImpwZWciOnsicXVhbGl0eSI6ODIsInByb2dyZXNzaXZlIjp0cnVlLCJ0cmVsbGlzUXVhbnRpc2F0aW9uIjp0cnVlLCJvdmVyc2hvb3REZXJpbmdpbmciOnRydWUsIm9wdGltaXplU2NhbnMiOnRydWV9LCJyZXNpemUiOnsid2lkdGgiOjM3NSwiaGVpZ2h0IjoyNTAsImZpdCI6ImNvdmVyIn19fQ==) Distribution boxes](https://www.bredenoord.com/en/rental/distribution/distribution-boxes/ "Distribution boxes")[![Assortment of Bredenoord cables](https://d214mxx6i7ojph.cloudfront.net/eyJidWNrZXQiOiJicmVkZW5vb3JkLXByb2QtYnVja2V0Iiwia2V5IjoiaW1hZ2VzL3Byb2R1Y3QvQXNzb3J0bWVudC1vZi1CcmVkZW5vb3JkLWNhYmxlcy5qcGciLCJlZGl0cyI6eyJqcGVnIjp7InF1YWxpdHkiOjgyLCJwcm9ncmVzc2l2ZSI6dHJ1ZSwidHJlbGxpc1F1YW50aXNhdGlvbiI6dHJ1ZSwib3ZlcnNob290RGVyaW5naW5nIjp0cnVlLCJvcHRpbWl6ZVNjYW5zIjp0cnVlfSwicmVzaXplIjp7IndpZHRoIjozNzUsImhlaWdodCI6MjUwLCJmaXQiOiJjb3ZlciJ9fX0=) Cables](https://www.bredenoord.com/en/rental/distribution/cables/ "Cables") ## The rental process 01 ### Enquiry You can submit an enquiry via the form or by phone, outlining your power requirements. 02 ### Advice & quotation Our experts provide tailored advice that suits your situation, including a quotation. 03 ### Delivery Using our own transport fleet, we deliver the power solution to your location. 04 ### Monitoring & 24/7 service The power solution is monitored from our Fleet Operation Center.

Take a look at our range of energy solutions. [ Explore sales options ](https://www.bredenoord.com/en/sales/) ## Tailored advice for your project Every temporary power requirement has its own dynamics. Sometimes it's about a constant load, sometimes peaks, or a location where speed of delivery matters. Our Technical Advisors first carefully assess your situation. Then, you receive a solution that matches your activities, your schedule, and your installation. After agreement, our planners take care of the further processing and prepare the rental order. The machine is delivered to the location with our own transport, where our drivers deliver and connect the setup. Even after that, support remains available. Our service team is ready 24/7 in case of disruptions, so you can rely on the continuity of your installation. ## Twinset for heavy-duty use The Twinset 2 x 500 kVA is a generator for temporary power in projects where high power and availability come together. This setup is suitable for large construction sites, industrial applications, and events with a substantial or fluctuating power demand. The machine is configured as a 20 ft Container of approximately 6.10 meters, which helps organize transport and placement effectively. With a noise level of 67 dB(A) at 7 meters, deployment at busier locations remains manageable. The fuel capacity of 2 x 500 l supports stable operations. Bredenoord offers generators for large powers, making this generator a logical choice. ## More sustainable with twinset This installation also provides an opportunity to be more conscious of fuel and emissions. The generator can be used with HVO100 biofuel or GTL synthetic diesel. This gives you alternative fuels that contribute to lower emissions. For this power, a Stage V version is also available. With a Stage V version, nitrogen (NOx) and particulate matter (PM) emissions are drastically reduced. Additionally, this machine can be excellently combined with a Battery Box in a hybrid setup. The battery then largely takes care of the power supply, while the generator only switches on when additional power is needed or when the battery runs out. A hybrid solution in combination with a Battery Box ensures that the engine only runs as efficiently as possible when necessary. This reduces emissions and operates significantly quieter. ![Twinset 2x 500 kVA generator](https://d214mxx6i7ojph.cloudfront.net/eyJidWNrZXQiOiJicmVkZW5vb3JkLXByb2QtYnVja2V0Iiwia2V5IjoiaW1hZ2VzL3Byb2R1Y3QvQnJlZGVub29yZC1Ud2luc2V0LTJ4NTAwLWtWQS1nZW5lcmF0b3IuanBnIiwiZWRpdHMiOnsianBlZyI6eyJxdWFsaXR5IjoxMDAsInByb2dyZXNzaXZlIjpmYWxzZSwidHJlbGxpc1F1YW50aXNhdGlvbiI6dHJ1ZSwib3ZlcnNob290RGVyaW5naW5nIjp0cnVlLCJvcHRpbWl6ZVNjYW5zIjp0cnVlfSwicmVzaXplIjp7IndpZHRoIjo5NiwiaGVpZ2h0Ijo2NCwiZml0IjoiaW5zaWRlIn19fQ==)Twinset 2 x 500 kVA [ Request a quote ](https://www.bredenoord.com/en/rental/generators/twinset-2-x-500-kva/quote/) Get in touch Need temporary power fast?
