Kohler KD4000 Industrial Diesel Generator cylinder head design

Kohler KD4000 Industrial Diesel Generator

The Kohler KD4000 Industrial Generator features an innovative cylinder head design that improves the combustion process and reduces the emissions of the engine.

The cylinder head is made of cast iron and has a four-valve configuration for each cylinder. The cylinder head also has a central injector that optimizes the fuel injection and distribution. The cylinder head design of the Kohler KD4000 enhances the performance, efficiency and durability of the generator.

Kohler KD4000 Industrial Diesel Generator matched turbochargers

Kohler KD4000 Industrial Diesel Generator

The Kohler KD4000 Industrial Generator has matched turbochargers that are designed to provide the optimal quantity of air to reach maximum power and reduce fuel consumption.

The turbochargers are specifically matched to each engine, based on the engine size, speed, power output and application.

The turbochargers also help to lower the emissions and noise of the engine.

The Kohler KD4000 has two turbochargers mounted on the engine, one for each bank of cylinders. The turbochargers are connected by a balance pipe that equalizes the pressure and improves the performance.

Kohler KD4000 Industrial Diesel Generator high ambient cooling system

Kohler KD4000 Industrial Diesel Generator

The Kohler KD4000 Industrial Generator has a high ambient cooling system that optimizes the power output of the generator in ambient temperatures up to 50°C/122°F1.

This cooling system technology is designed to maintain the optimal temperature of the engine and the alternator, and to prevent overheating and damage. This cooling system also reduces the noise and vibration of the generator.

Kohler KD4000 Industrial Diesel Generator optimized consumption and emissions

Kohler KD4000 Industrial Diesel Generator

The Kohler KD4000 Industrial Generator has optimized consumption and emissions that make it more efficient and eco-friendly.

The generator has a common rail injection system that offers best-in-class fuel consumption and has been engineered specifically for G-Drive applications.

The generator also has an exhaust gas recirculation system that reduces the nitrogen oxides (NOx) emissions and meets the Tier 2 EPA standards.

The generator also has a diesel oxidation catalyst that reduces the carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrocarbon (HC) emissions. The generator has a fuel consumption optimized option that can further reduce the fuel consumption by up to 5%.

Kohler KD4000 Industrial Diesel Generator advanced and communication system

Kohler KD4000 Industrial Diesel Generator

The Kohler KD4000 Industrial Generator has an advanced and communication system that allows you to monitor and control the generator remotely and securely.

The generator has a KOHLER APM802 controller that provides a user-friendly interface and displays all the essential parameters of the generator, such as voltage, frequency, current, power, oil pressure, coolant temperature, fuel level, battery voltage, etc.

The controller also has a fault detection and protection system that alerts you of any abnormal conditions and shuts down the generator if necessary.

The controller also has a communication module that enables you to connect the generator to a remote monitoring system via Ethernet, Modbus or SNMP protocols.

The remote monitoring system allows you to access the generator data from any device with an internet connection and perform various functions, such as start/stop, reset, test, etc.
