500 kVA Diesel Generators for Sale in Jeddah

What to check before buying 500 kVA diesel generators

Use this checklist when you compare machines and prices for 500 kVA diesel generators:

• Line up the key figures for 500 kVA diesel generators: rated output. Check each against the data plate and the manufacturer's data for the model.
• Ask for running hours, service history and the last load test, and check the engine, alternator or air end, and control panel.
• Agree what is included in the price, who arranges transport, and the payment and handover terms in writing.
• Prices on Arabian Tool are in SAR and exclude VAT, so ask whether your quote is inclusive or exclusive.

What the 500 kVA class means

On Arabian Tool, the 500 kVA class groups diesel generators whose rated output falls roughly between 375 and 625 kVA. Each machine is placed in the nearest class to its actual specification.

Choose by total connected load plus the starting load of your largest motor, with some headroom. kVA multiplied by the power factor (typically 0.8) gives the kW available.

Not sure which class you need? Describe the job in your request and ask the supplier to confirm the size. You can also look at 100 kVA diesel generators, 250 kVA diesel generators, 20 kVA diesel generators, 60 kVA diesel generators and 750 kVA diesel generators.

What affects the price of 500 kVA diesel generators for sale

Two quotes for 500 kVA diesel generators can differ widely for good reasons. Check these factors when you compare:

• Condition and hours: a lower hour-meter reading and a documented service history usually support a higher price.
• Location and transport: moving heavy equipment adds cost that depends on distance and machine size.
• Attachments and extras: any accessories, tooling or covers that come with the machine can change the price.

Typical projects for 500 kVA diesel generators in Jeddah

Jeddah is a major Red Sea port city and the commercial hub of western Saudi Arabia, home to Jeddah Islamic Port. 500 kVA diesel generators are core equipment for construction, as well as industrial and power work.

Further applications include temporary site power for construction, as well as power for events and exhibitions.

Straight-line distances from Jeddah to the nearest bases in our data: Makkah (about 75 km), Taif (about 130 km) and Yanbu (about 310 km). Road distance and machine size drive mobilisation cost, so a supplier based closer is often cheaper to deliver from. Say in your request if you are open to a machine based elsewhere.
