Engine Generator Könner & Söhnen KS 2000iG S 1.8 W 230 V 6 L

The Könner & Söhnen KS 2000iG S is a compact petrol/LPG inverter generator designed to deliver stable 230 V power for a range of small-to-medium loads. With a rated output of 1.8 kW and a fuel tank capacity of 6 L, the KS 2000iG S combines a lightweight 19 kg construction and small footprint (285 mm × 500 mm) with features intended for safe and economical operation. The unit includes a pure sine wave electronic inverter, a multifunction LED display, and the ability to run on either gasoline or liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) using the supplied hose and reducer.

Advantages

The generator produces a pure sine wave output suitable for sensitive electronics and household appliances. It uses a robust EURO V–compliant engine with an Economy mode that can reduce fuel consumption by up to 50% at light loads. A brushless alternator with 100% copper winding and a compact permanent magnet design supports long-term, reliable operation. The ergonomic control panel with LED display provides monitoring of hours, voltage and frequency, and built-in protections include overload, short circuit and low-oil shutdown. The unit is engineered for low noise operation, approximately 62 dB, thanks to its protective housing.

Suitable for

• Powering small household appliances and sensitive electronics (laptops, TVs, routers)
• Outdoor activities such as camping, caravan trips and tailgating
• Backup power for essential circuits during short outages
• Mobile work tools and small power equipment

When it may not be suitable

This generator is not intended for continuous heavy-duty industrial use or to supply large electrical loads such as whole-house HVAC systems or large workshop machinery. For applications requiring sustained high power or continuous operation, a larger commercial generator with higher rated output and extended fuel capacity is more appropriate.

Key specifications

• Rated power output: 1.8 kW (1800 W)
• Rated voltage/frequency: 230 V / 50 Hz
• Fuel types: gasoline and LPG (propane-butane)
• Fuel tank capacity: 6 L
• Noise level: approximately 62 dB (protective housing)
• Weight: 19 kg
• Dimensions (W × D): 285 mm × 500 mm
• Alternator: brushless, 100% copper winding, permanent magnet design
• Output waveform: pure sine wave (electronic inverter)
• Economy mode: reduces fuel consumption at low loads

How to use

Place the generator on a flat, level surface in a well-ventilated outdoor location. Fill the fuel tank with gasoline or connect an LPG cylinder using the supplied hose and reducer; connection to stationary gas storage must be performed by a certified specialist and supply pressure must not exceed 16 bar. Start the engine following the control panel instructions and monitor the LED display for voltage, frequency and operating hours. Use the Economy mode for light loads to reduce fuel consumption. The panel includes overload and short circuit protection as well as a low-oil sensor that will shut down the engine if oil falls below safe levels. For increased power, compatible units can be connected in parallel using the dedicated parallel connection socket and a parallel cable accessory.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the rated power (1.8 kW) meets the combined starting and running power requirements of devices you intend to connect
• Decide whether you will use gasoline, LPG, or both; ensure safe storage and compliant connection for LPG
• Consider runtime based on fuel tank size (6 L) and your expected load; plan refueling for extended use
• Check local regulations for generator use and LPG connections, and whether professional installation is required for stationary gas systems

Usage recommendations

Use the pure sine wave output for sensitive electronics and switch to Economy mode when running small loads to extend runtime. Always operate the generator outdoors with adequate ventilation, perform regular oil and maintenance checks according to the manual, and use the parallel connection option only with compatible Könner & Söhnen inverter models and approved parallel cable accessories.
