Rather than set the different energy sources up in competition with each other, Kohler integrates them so as to reap all of their potential value
KOHLER Hybrid Energy Modules are the units for the hybrid electrical and mechanical combined power generation. K-HEM Series currently features two models:
K-HEM 1003: a KDW 1003 diesel engine coupled with a 48-volt electric engine
K-HEM 2504: a KDI 2504TCR diesel engine coupled with a 48-volt electric engine
FACTORY OPTIONS
K-HEM units can operate as a generator and as an energy accumulation system
K-HEM units are suitable for a wide range of applications: forklifts, tractors with implements, welders, mowers, aerial platforms, etc.
The built-in master control unit monitors and manages working modes and transitions
