Buying a Used Titan — What to Know

Used Solar Titan units are typically priced $1.5M–$6M depending on variant and hours. Solar Turbines' global service network is a significant advantage — parts and MRO support are well-established worldwide. Key checks: hot section condition, compressor blade status, and SoLoNOx combustion system condition (if equipped).

Frequently Asked Questions

Who manufactures Solar Turbines?
Solar Turbines is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Caterpillar Inc., headquartered in San Diego, California. It has been manufacturing industrial gas turbines since the 1950s.
What is SoLoNOx?
SoLoNOx is Solar Turbines' proprietary dry low-emissions (DLE) combustion system, which reduces NOx emissions without water injection by using lean premixed combustion.
What is the difference between the Titan 130 and Titan 250?
The Titan 250 produces approximately 45% more power than the Titan 130 and offers higher efficiency. The Titan 250 targets larger compression and power generation applications, while the Titan 130 is more common in upstream production and smaller facilities.
Are Solar Titan parts readily available?
Yes. Solar Turbines' global dealer and service network provides strong aftermarket parts and overhaul support. The large installed base ensures competitive pricing on commonly replaced components.
