When you need serious power that you can count on, the Caterpillar XQ570 rental grade diesel generator delivers exactly what demanding operations require. This powerhouse combines Cat’s legendary reliability with smart engineering designed specifically for the rental market – and we’ve got units like this one in stock and ready to ship.

At Central States Diesel Generators, we understand that downtime isn’t an option. That’s why we keep proven performers like the XQ570 on hand, thoroughly inspected and ready for immediate deployment. Let’s dive into what makes this generator such a standout choice for your power needs.

Why Caterpillar Leads the Power Generation Industry

Caterpillar didn’t become a household name by accident. For nearly a century, Cat has built its reputation on creating equipment that works when it absolutely has to – and keeps working long after others would quit.

Engineering Excellence That Shows
Cat generators are engineered with the same attention to detail that goes into their legendary construction equipment. Every component is built to withstand punishing conditions, from scorching desert heat to freezing northern winters. The company’s global network means parts and service are available virtually anywhere your generator might be deployed.

What really sets Caterpillar apart is their integrated approach – they design and manufacture both the engine and generator components in-house. This means perfect compatibility between all systems and no finger-pointing between different manufacturers when service is needed.

Proven Track Record
Walk onto any major construction site, industrial facility, or emergency response operation, and you’ll likely spot that familiar Cat yellow. There’s a reason contractors, facility managers, and rental companies choose Caterpillar again and again: these machines simply don’t let you down when the stakes are high.

XQ570 Technical Specifications: Built for Business

The XQ570 packs serious power into a surprisingly compact and mobile package. Here’s what makes this generator such a technical standout:

Power Output That Delivers

  • 500 kW standby power (625 kVA) for emergency backup applications
  • 455 kW prime power (568 kVA) for continuous operation
  • Multi-voltage flexibility: 120V to 600V configurations available
  • Accepts 100% block load in one step – meeting ISO 8528-5 standards

Heart of the Machine: Cat C18 Engine
At the core of every XQ570 sits Caterpillar’s proven C18 engine, rated at 779 horsepower. This isn’t just any diesel engine – it’s specifically designed for generator applications with features like:

  • EPA Tier 4 Final emissions compliance for non-road mobile use
  • Advanced fuel injection for optimal efficiency
  • Heavy-duty construction built for 24/7 operation
  • Cat’s legendary durability that keeps running when others quit

Fuel Economy That Makes Sense
Nobody wants to waste money on fuel, and the XQ570 delivers impressive efficiency:

  • At 75% load: just 26.2 gal/hr in prime mode
  • At 50% load: only 19 gal/hr consumption
  • 700-gallon onboard fuel tank provides approximately 24 hours runtime at 75% load

Smart Design for Real-World Applications

The XQ570 isn’t just powerful – it’s intelligently designed for the challenges rental and commercial users face every day.

Sound-Attenuated Enclosure
Nobody wants to deal with noise complaints, and Cat engineers understood this from day one. The XQ570’s sound-attenuated enclosure keeps noise levels to just 74 dB(A) at 23 feet – quiet enough for most urban environments and noise-sensitive applications.

20-Foot ISO Container Design
The generator is housed in a standard 20-foot ISO shipping container, which brings several advantages:

  • Easy transportation via truck, rail, or ship
  • Stackable for efficient storage
  • Weather protection in any climate
  • Familiar dimensions that fit standard logistics networks

EMCP 4.4 Digital Control Panel
Modern power demands modern controls. The EMCP 4.4 digital control system provides:

  • User-friendly navigation and display
  • Real-time engine and generator monitoring
  • Programmable parameters for different applications
  • Remote monitoring capabilities
  • Comprehensive alarm and safety systems

Why Rental Grade Makes the Difference

The term “rental grade” isn’t just marketing – it represents specific design choices that make equipment ready for the unique demands of the rental market.

Built to Move
Rental equipment gets transported frequently, often to challenging locations. The XQ570’s container design and integrated lifting points make it simple to move with standard equipment. The optional tandem axle trailer configuration means you can tow it directly to site without needing special transport.

Operator-Friendly Features
When different operators use equipment regularly, simplicity becomes critical. The XQ570’s intuitive controls and clear labeling mean minimal training time for new users. Emergency stops are clearly marked, and essential information is displayed prominently.

Maintenance Access
Rental companies need to keep equipment running with minimal downtime. Cat designed the XQ570 with accessible service points and clear maintenance intervals. Routine checks can be performed quickly, and major service items are designed for efficient access.

Durability Under Pressure
Rental equipment faces conditions that permanently-installed generators never see. The XQ570’s heavy-duty construction, reinforced mounting points, and robust enclosure are specifically engineered to handle frequent moves, varying operating conditions, and demanding users.

Perfect for Commercial and Industrial Applications

The XQ570’s specifications make it ideal for a wide range of demanding applications:

Construction Sites
Large construction projects need reliable power for everything from tower cranes to concrete pumps. The XQ570’s mobility and power output make it perfect for major construction applications where utility power isn’t available or reliable.

Industrial Backup Power
Manufacturing facilities, data centers, and critical infrastructure need backup power they can absolutely count on. The XQ570’s quick load acceptance and stable power output ensure sensitive equipment stays protected.

Event Power
Large outdoor events, concerts, and festivals require substantial power in temporary locations. The XQ570’s quiet operation and contained design make it suitable even for high-profile events where appearance and noise matter.

Emergency Response
When disasters strike, power restoration becomes critical. The XQ570’s mobility and rugged design make it perfect for emergency deployment, whether supporting relief operations or restoring power to critical facilities.
