Residential Generators / 17RES

Features

More Powerful Performance• Kohler's exclusive PowerBoost(TM) technologyprovides greater motor starting capability forlarge loads such as central air conditionerswhile still running other home appliances andelectronics.

•

Safer Power for Sensitive Electronics• Many power sources can damage and degradesensitive home electronics due to unstablepower quality or high levels of total harmonicdistortion (THD). KOHLER residentialgenerators protect all of your valuableappliances and sophisticated electronics withcleaner, safe and stable power that meets strictutility requirements and IEEE standards forTHD.

•

Quieter Operation• Sound enclosure maintains neighborhoodsolitude whether you are in self−test or fulloperation mode. 65 dB(A) at 7 m, similar to atypical vacuum cleaner.

•

Faster Response• While many competitive products can leave youin the dark for 25 seconds or more during anoutage, KOHLER generators restore power inas little as 10 seconds.

•

Superior five−year limited warranty included• Easier Service and Installation• Unlike most competitive products our enginesinclude hydraulic valve lifters for reliableperformance without routine valve adjustment or

•

lengthy break−in requirements.Kohler's new easy−connection terminal blockprovides faster, flexible installations.

•

Polymer base eliminates the need for aconcrete mounting pad, reducing installationtime and cost and the new 17RES is designedwith a hinged roof for easy service access.

•

More sophisticated diagnostic self−test• While some competitive products perform ashort, reduced−speed exercise each week,KOHLER residential generators perform a20−minute full−speed exercise cycle andself−diagnostic test each week to ensure yourgenerator is ready to run when you need it.

•

Sophisticated fault codes on Kohler's exclusiveAdvanced Digital Control let you know whereservice may be needed.

•

Emissions certifications• Meets Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)nonstationary unit requirements and CaliforniaAir Resources Board (CARB)−certified for bothLP vapor and natural gas (field−convertible).

•

Alternator features:

NEMA MG1 ,IEEE, and ANSI standardscompliance for temperature rise and motorstarting.

•

The generator set complies with ISO 8528−5requirements for transient performance.

•

Sustained short−circuit current of up to 300% ofthe rated current for up to 10 seconds.

•

Sustained short−circuit current enabling downstream circuit breakers to trip without collapsingthe alternator field.

•

Self−ventilated and dripproof construction.• Vacuum−impregnated windings withfungus−resistant epoxy varnish fordependability and long life.

•

Superior voltage waveform from a two−thirdspitch stator and skewed rotor.

•

Digital voltage regulator with ±1.5% no−load tofull−load regulation

•

Engine features:

Natural gas or LP fueled.• Electronic engine controls for optimized fuel andspark performance.

•

Four stroke, two cylinder engine.• An electronic, isochronous governor for precisefrequency regulation.

•

High silicone content pistons for improveddurability.
