A global force in power solutions since 1920, KOHLER Power partners with water treatment facilities with standby power from its leading series of large diesel industrial generators. These gensets are highly customizable to provide a high level of proficiency for plant operators.
KOHLER is the only generator set company to manufacture and supply a completely integrated system from a single facility. The company is also committed to developing cleaner energy solutions with generators that lead the industry in power density and fuel economy, and contribute to a lower environmental impact.
Power-dense product portfolio
The KOHLER product portfolio includes the KD3500 (3,500 kW) and KD4000 (4,000 kW) generators, which represent the largest standby generator in the marketplace and deliver unprecedented power density and performance.
The units feature a newly developed K175 103-liter, 20-cylinder KOHLER diesel engine designed to provide extreme durability and ultimate reliability in a variety of emergency and prime applications. The compact and powerful diesel engines incorporate a modular design with common components, allowing for efficient servicing, reduced spare parts inventory, and more streamlined technician training. From a generator package design perspective, KOHLER’s approach is to also keep many of the components the same in the new models as their counterparts including the control system, alternator, cooling system – but just a bit larger to accommodate their higher outputs.
The entire KOHLER KD Series is ideally suited for modern wastewater sites. The extensive lineup offers multiple sizes — between 800 and 4,000 kW — and options to ensure suitable performance for the most demanding applications. They are backed by a comprehensive three-year warranty, a full complement of genuine KOHLER aftermarket parts, and a 24/7 global service and support network.
Plant expansion increases production capacity
Reaffirming its commitment to being a trusted partner, KOHLER initiated a 155,000 square-foot expansion in March to its existing manufacturing facility in Mosel, Wisconsin. The project will include a state-of-the-art production and testing space of large generators above 2,000 kilowatts, increased warehousing space, as well as a world-class customer experience center.
This is the second major expansion in the last eight years at this United States manufacturing site following a decade of sustained growth, and addresses future capacity requirements to provide a safer, more efficient and seamless flow of integrated power system assembly, testing and enclosing — all under one roof.
KOHLER is committed to reliable, leading-edge products and comprehensive after-sales support. It provides complete power systems, including generators (portable, marine, residential, commercial and industrial), automatic transfer switches, switchgear, monitoring controls, and accessories for emergency, prime power and energy-management applications.
