When Business Can't Stop, Neither Should Your Power
125,000 Watts | 277/480V Three-Phase | Liquid-Cooled Reliability | Made in USA
Business disruption costs more than equipment—it costs reputation, revenue, and competitive advantage. The Kohler 125kW Light Commercial Emergency Generator ensures your operations never skip a beat, delivering industrial-grade power with the reliability that has made Kohler the trusted choice of commercial facilities nationwide.
Built for Business-Critical Operations
125,000 watts of continuous standby power handles substantial commercial loads across manufacturing facilities, office buildings, retail centers, medical facilities, and data centers. This isn't residential backup power scaled up—it's purpose-built industrial engineering designed for the demanding environment of commercial operations.
Industrial-Grade Kohler 6.2L Liquid-Cooled Engine
The heart of reliability beats strong with Kohler's proven 6.2-liter liquid-cooled engine. Hydraulic valve lifters and industrial-grade construction deliver the durability commercial applications demand, while 1800 RPM operation provides fuel-efficient performance with reduced noise output. Pre-installed block heater ensures reliable cold-weather starting and faster warm-up times.
277/480V Three-Phase Power for Commercial Applications
Purpose-designed for commercial buildings with 277/480V three-phase electrical service, this generator integrates seamlessly with existing commercial electrical systems. 188 rated amps handle substantial motor loads, HVAC systems, lighting, and critical equipment without compromise.
Dual Fuel Flexibility for Uninterrupted Operation
Operate on clean-burning natural gas or LP vapor with simple field conversion while maintaining emissions certification. Natural gas connection provides unlimited runtime during extended outages, while LP capability offers fuel independence when natural gas service is compromised.
Fuel Consumption Efficiency:
- Natural Gas: 1,084 ft³/hr at 50% load, 1,678 ft³/hr at full load
- LP Vapor: 11 gallons/hr at 50% load, 18.8 gallons/hr at full load
Exceptional Power Quality for Sensitive Equipment
Ultra-low Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) delivers utility-grade power quality that protects sensitive electronics, computer systems, and precision equipment. Exceptional voltage and frequency regulation with integrated hybrid voltage regulator maintains +/- 0.5% regulation—tighter than many utility sources.
Fast-Response X Excitation System handles full loads within 10 seconds, ensuring critical systems transition seamlessly from utility to backup power without disruption.
