Perkins® Engine Identification
fOR DIESEL & NATURAL GAS ENGINES
Identify Your Perkins® Engine
Typically, engine serial numbers can be located on a metal plate that is securely attached to the engine block. The combination of letters and numbers forming an engine’s model number comprises a sequence of codes that provide valuable information about the engine’s characteristics.
These codes indicate the engine family, the number of cylinders, the emissions standard, the ignition type, the capacity, the aspiration type, and, if applicable, the generator set rating.
To ensure the selection of the appropriate engine kit for a specific application, it is essential to determine the Perkins® Engine Number. Depending on the manufacturing year, all Perkins® Engines should possess one of the two designated formats for engine identification:
PRE 1978 ENGINE NUMBERS:
Between the years 1966 and 1978, a numbering system with a maximum of 13 digits was implemented. This system was employed during that specific time frame. However, before 1966, a different numbering method was utilized, which involved a numerical value with no connection to the engine series.
