General Electric LM-1500

Home page

The LM-1500 unit is one of our specialty engine lines.  We offer full level IV overhaul and periodic maintenance services, and have a fleet of rental units available as well as engine sales.  Our parts inventory for this product line is very extensive.  Please call for a quote to confirm deliverability and pricing. 

As the LM-1500 product line is no longer a current offering from OEM. packagers, S&S Turbine Services Ltd. has a fleet of rental units available based on the J79-15 military flight engine, which is the same unit that the LM-1500 model GB-101 units were originally derived from.  Our J79 industrial conversion units are the very best LM-1500 compatible units available.  Compare with our competitors, and you will agree that our pricing, attention to details and end products are the most cost competitive available.  We offer our units in various levels of build, custom tailored to your needs.  Please call for our pricing, lease rates and availability.

We offer a hot section upgrade package for the LM-1500 product line that combines modern ceramic thermal barrier coating technology with improved gas path sealing and ruggedized selected hot section components to provide a series of efficiency and output upgrades.  Over the last six years, eleven LM-1500 units for various gas compression utilities have been upgraded with excellent results.
Our Ph-II upgrade provides a 13% output and efficiency upgrade without any reduction in overhaul period.  Our PH-III upgrade package provides a full 25% increase in output and cycle efficiency without any reduction in overhaul period.  If increased output is not required, our hot section upgrade package can greatly extend the overhaul life of hot section components, reducing the total per fired hour maintenance costs.
We at S&S Turbine Services Ltd. pride ourselves in being the most experienced and knowledgeable people in the LM-1500 business.  When asked how our competitors LM-1500 products are in terms of quality, we have to answer very good. (because we were probably sub-contracted to do the work.)
The LM-1500 units will continue to soldier on for an indefinite period of time.  Our exclusive reduced emissions combustor program is showing very promising results, with corrected Nox. emissions of less than 25 parts per million.  Parts selection has never been better, and together with our manufacturing capability of those previously hard to get components, the LM-1500 product line will continue to be a viable power producer for many years.
Please contact us as to your LM-1500 requirements, we would be happy to hear from you, and we guarantee, you will be pleased with our service.
