1.3 E ngine Features
The generator sets are equipped with four-cycle, twin
cylinder, air-cooled Kohler engines. Some of the engine
features include:
! One-side serviceability of air cleaner, carburetor, oil
fill, dipstick, and oil drain.
! Efficient overhead valve design and full pressure
lubrication for maximum power, torque, and reliability
under all operating conditions.
! Electronic governor to ensure AC power output is
maintained at desired frequency.
! Overspeed shutdown to prevent governed frequency
from exceeding 70 Hz on 60 Hz models (60 Hz on
50 Hz models).
! Low oil pressure cutout to prevent failure.
! Dependable, maintenance free electronic ignition.
! Digital Spark Advance Ignition (DSAI) optimizes
engine timing for natural gas or LP fuel (12 kW models
only).
! Parts subject to the most wear and tear made from
precision formulated cast iron.
! Hydraulic valve adjusters to eliminate the need for
valve adjustments.
! Field-convertible fuel systems that allow fuel
changeover from natural gas to LP vapor (and
vice-versa) while maintaining CARB certification.
