The 6B is one of the most versatile and widely used gas turbines ever manufactured. With more than 900 units in service, it has accumulated more than 40 million operating hours, representing the widest range of applications: simple cycle, heat recovery application, combined cycle and mechanical drive. It can be installed fast for quick near-term capacity.

The 6B is recognized as rugged and reliable to handle the multiple startups required for peak load service. It can accommodate a variety of fuels and is well-suited to Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) applications.

In combined cycle operation, the 6B is a solid performer at nearly 50 percent efficiency. It is also a flexible choice for cogeneration applications capable of producing a thermal output ranging from 20 to 400 million Btu/hr. Like all GE heavy-duty gas turbines, the 6B has earned a solid reputation for high reliability and low emissions. With a Dry Low NO_x combustion system, the 6B can achieve less than 15 ppm NO_x on natural gas.

With its excellent fuel efficiency, low cost per horsepower and high horsepower per square foot, the 6B is an excellent fit for selective mechanical applications.
