90kVA Diesel Engine Driven GPU Cummins QSB Diesel (Tier 3) Low Emissions Compliant - “Going Green” The new 90CU420 gives users a much smaller, lighter weight, lower noise, and more fuel efficient power delivery system, as compared to the larger models in the industry today. The new low profile design, combined with our rugged 5th wheel steering, provides superior visibility and maneuverability in today’s congested ramp areas. The reduced fuel consumption rate provides fuel cost savings and reduces engine emissions, which support the “Going Green” initiatives of the GSE industry. The Hobart GPU features the Cummins “QSB” series electronic diesel engine and the Hobart designed and manufactured dual bearing generator. Integrating customer influenced design, innovative technology, and Hobart’s years of engineering expertise maximizes the GPU performance and maintains the traditional Hobart standard of durability and reliability.
