Each home backup power system from Kohler includes the generator unit, battery charger, composite pad, and transfer switch on the 12RESL.  Frequently

referred to as the “brains” behind the generator, the transfer switch continuously monitors

utility power and within seconds of any power outage automatically transfers power from

the utility to your generator. The generator alone now supplies your home’s power. When

utility power is restored, the transfer switch signals the generator to shut down, returning

your home’s power demand to the utility grid.

A KOHLER commercial-grade residential power system is the ultimate protection during unexpected power outages and keeps your family living life to the fullest. It’s what Kohler customers have come to expect from a world leader in home comfort products.

Kohler 12 RES Features

• Easier Service and Installation
• Unlike most competitive products our engines include hydraulic valve lifters for reliable performance without routine valve adjustment or lengthy break-in requirements.
• Kohler's new easy-connection terminal block provides faster, flexible installations.
• Polymer base eliminates the need for a concrete mounting pad, reducing installation time and cost and the new 8 RES is designed with a hinged roof for easy service access.
• More sophisticated diagnostic self-test
• While some competitive products perform a short, reduced-speed exercise each week, KOHLER residential generators perform a 20-minute full-speed exercise cycle and self-diagnostic test each week to ensure your generator is ready to run when you need it.
• Sophisticated fault codes on Kohler's exclusive Advanced Digital Control let you know where service may be needed.
• Emissions certifications
• Meets Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) nonstationary unit requirements and California Air Resources Board (CARB)-certified for both LP vapor and natural gas (field-convertible).

Alternator features:

• Compliance with NEMA, IEEE, and ANSI standards for temperature rise
• Self-ventilated and dripproof construction
• Vacuum-impregnated windings with fungus resistant epoxy varnish for dependability and long life
• Superior voltage waveform and minimum harmonic distortion from skewed alternator construction
• Digital voltage regulator with ±1.5% no-load to full-load RMS regulation
• Rotating-field alternator with static exciter for excellent load response
• Skewed generator construction produces a smooth AC waveform

Engine features:

• Natural gas or LP fueled.
• Electronic engine controls for optimized fuel and spark performance.
• Four stroke, two cylinder engine.
• An electronic, isochronous governor for precise frequency regulation.
• High silicone content pistons for improved durability.
