New Kohler Tier-3 generators
Kohler Power Systems a US manufacturer of diesel and gasoline marine generators from 4 to 150 kW, has just added two new models to its expanded offering of EPA Tier 3-compliant diesel marine generators – ranging from 125 to 150 kW for 60 Hz, and 100 to 125 kW for 50 Hz.
The new models are specially designed for commercial and megayacht marine applications. Both models feature a high-pressure common rail fuel system offering optimum performance and fuel efficiency. They include a newly designed Kohler Decision-Maker 3500 (DEC 3500) controller equipped with paralleling software, which the manufacturers claim saves much of the space and cost of switchgear.
The Kohler DEC 3500 offers a newly designed customer interface for easier data entry and retrieval. Advanced features include bus sensing, first on logic and synchronization. It can be operated in one of three paralleling modes: P-gen (Kohler-patented), droop, or V-bias/S-bias.
In addition to existing heat exchanger and keel-cooling options, Kohler have released inline radiator models as part of the company’s commitment to offer fully integrated solution for the workboat market.
