Engine I.D. location
The engine identification plate (A1) is located on the front right side of the engine, just above the fuel injection
pump.
It consists of the following:
Abbreviations and codes
Engine build list (parts list) numbering system
The standard engine parts list numbering code system is defined as follows:
    Code               I               II             III            IV          V

Continued
The engine number is stamped on the left side of the cylinder block (A1), behind the high pressure pump.
An example of an engine number is WP1296N123456.
The components of the engine number are as follows:
WP = Type code letters
1296 = Build list number
N = Built in the USA
123456 = Engine serial number
If you need parts, service or information for your engine, you must give the complete engine number to your
Perkins distributor.
A W002
Engines made after August 1994, have a new engine number system. For these engines, a typical number is:
SGH 06 0002 U 0059 C, which consists of these codes:
SG            Engine application
H             Engine type
06            Number of engine cylinders
0002          Engine specification number
U             Country of manufacture
0059          Build line number
C             Year of manufacture
Units such as the fuel injection pump and turbochargers have their own data plates.
If you need parts, service or information for your engine, you must give the complete engine number to your
Perkins distributor.

Engine identification
The 3012 Series engine is a Vee 12 normally aspirated unit. It is supplied in various power ratings, depending
on the application and the calorific value of the gas supply.
The engine number is stamped on the data plate which is fastened to the right side of the crankcase.
For early engines, a typical engine number is 6E27883U 59426W, which consists of these codes:
6E            Engine family
27883         Engine number
U             Country of manufacture
59426         Build line number
W             Year of manufacture
Engines produced after August 1994, have a new engine number system. For these engines, a typical engine
number is SIA120249U93852B which consists of these codes:
SI            Engine application
A             Engine type
12            Number of engine cylinders

Notes
¹ A number of engines were built with the letter ‘R’ as the year of manufacture code. In the middle of January 2008, the year of manufacture code was changed to the letter ‘S’.
  If your full engine serial number ends with the letter ‘R’, Perkins Engines Company Limited will recognise the full engine serial number.
² Represents current manufacturing facilities.
If the letter ‘R’ appears after the country code this represents a remanufactured engine
(ie UR = UK remanufactured engine).
Notes
¹ PK Series engines are derived from the 1106D Range platform but are only Stage II EU 2007 generator sets emissions compliant.
² Not available from 2014.
Peterborough products may show a finishing list on the engine plate, eg F1895. It is very important to quote this when spare parts are required.
1300 Series (Stafford)
From January 2010 ElectropaK (EP) and June 2010 Industrial Open Power Unit (IOPU) the engine numbering format for 1300 Series engine range changed to
bring it into line with 2000 and 4000 Series engines.
