Generator Set Application

Kohlerr Power Systems (KPS) ensures that all Kohlerr generator sets are certified to applicable standards for their intended application. It is the owner/operator’s responsibility to operate Kohlerr generator sets exclusively according to the directions provided in the accompanying operation manuals.

Kohlerr generator sets designated as Stationary Standby, Emergency or Emergency Standby may only be operated for emergency power generation and for maintenance/testing. Emergency power generation is limited to power production when electric power from a local utility (or the normal power source, if the facility runs on its own power production) is interrupted.

The US Clean Air Act explicitly prohibits using Emergency Standby generators as a primary electric power source regardless of whether a site is connected to the electrical grid. Emergency Standby generators may NOT be used to power sites which are not connected to an electric utility. The U.S. Clean Air Act authorizes owner/operator fines of up to $3,750 per day of operation in violation of the generator set’s certification.

Owners/operators should familiarize themselves with and perform all testing, maintenance, notification, reporting and record keeping as required by the Clean Air Act. In most cases, performance testing is not required if the generator is operated and maintained according to the operation manual. However, owners/operators must retain maintenance records.
