The Könner & Söhnen KS 7000E-1/3 is a versatile petrol-powered engine generator designed to provide reliable electricity for various needs. With a rated power output of 5000 W and a robust 25-liter fuel tank, this unit is engineered for extended operation, making it a dependable source of power for both residential and professional applications. The generator features a unique VTS (Voltage Transfer Switch) system, allowing for seamless switching between single-phase (230V) and three-phase (400V) power without loss of performance.
Advantages
This generator stands out due to its high-quality K&S series engine, which is built to meet stringent EURO V emission standards, ensuring durability and environmental compliance. The inclusion of a 100% copper-wound synchronous alternator ensures the unit can withstand prolonged maximum loads without damage. Users benefit from an ergonomic control panel equipped with an intelligent LED display that tracks voltage, frequency, and operating hours, facilitating timely maintenance. Furthermore, the unit is designed for user convenience, offering both manual and electric start options, while integrated rubber dampers significantly reduce vibration during operation, protecting both the floor surface and the generator frame.
Suitable for
- Providing backup power for residential homes during outages
- Powering construction tools and equipment on job sites
- Operating three-phase machinery and single-phase household appliances
- Supporting outdoor events or remote work locations requiring stable electricity
When it may not be suitable
This generator is intended for outdoor use only due to exhaust emissions and should never be operated in enclosed spaces, garages, or basements. It is not designed for continuous 24/7 industrial-grade power generation and should be used as a primary or backup power source with appropriate rest periods.
