Generators
1. What is the power output range for your fleet of generators?
Kohler Rental has generators ranging from 20 to 2000 kW.
2. What are the voltage ratings for your generators?
Output in single-phase is 115 V, 120 V, 230 V, and 240 V. Output in 3 phase is 208 V, 220 V, 240 V, 380 V, 416 V, and 480 V.
3. What are the dimensions of your generators?
Our most compact 20 kW generator is 145" long x 74" wide x 82" high. Our 2000 kW generator is 40' long x 8' wide x 13.3' high. Most of our fleet measures between these two extremes. For detailed dimensions and weights, consult our equipment specification sheets.
4. Are the generators skid mounted or trailer mounted?
Kohler Rental maintains trailer mounted 20-180kW generators. Larger generators are containerized units mounted on a chassis. The units can be removed from the trailers/chassis if necessary.
5. What is the decibel level of a running unit?
This will vary based on a number of factors such as the size of the generator, amount of load, and distance. Generators in our fleet range from 58 to 82 dBa depending on size when measured at 7 meters with no load. Refer to our equipment specification sheets for details.
6. How much fuel can your generator units hold and what are the consumption rates?
Fuel tank sizes vary depending on the size of the generator. Fuel consumption rates vary based on the generator, the load placed on them, as well as other factors. Detailed information is included on each of our equipment specification sheets.
7. Do you offer redundant power sources?
Yes, our Redundant Package contains two generators in a single container. The two units operate in-phase and share the load. If one generator should ever malfunction, the other takes over the load entirely without missing a beat. Kohler has three sizes of Redundant Packages - 180kW, 300kW and 400kW.
8. Do you have the capability to parallel generators?
We can parallel generators with our Paralleling Package equipment. Our Paralleling Package features PD-150 switchgear which allow up to 8 units to be paralleled. We also have stand-alone paralleling switchgear.
