When it comes to generator safety, IPS wants to provide its customers with all the tools necessary to ensure the safe and proper use of their generators. However, there is no substitute for professional support. In a generator emergency, we encourage customers to call 1-866-860-6267.
We have also included a few helpful safety basics below for your convenience.
Following safety precautions is critical to protecting yourself, your employees, and your facility when a generator is being installed, run, or maintained.
We provide a few useful guides to get you started. We hope they will help you better understand generator safety precautions, enable you to share these guidelines easily, and provide insight into the safety mechanisms built into KOHLER® Power Systems’ products.
With that said, know that our staff of more than 90 degreed engineers and technically-trained sales team is always available to answer questions, and takes your safety very seriously.
Some examples of KOHLER® generators’ safety features include an e-stop, which allows for immediate fuel shut-off and generator shutdown in the event of an emergency. If you’re working remotely, an annunciator panel can also be installed to allow you to monitor your generator’s fault and status conditions remotely.
These types of safety features and add-ons, as well as many more, can be found in the manuals that are packaged with KOHLER® products. In an emergency, however, these documents should never serve as a substitute for a qualified professional.
IPS’s commitment to safety begins in-house, with all employees receiving extensive onsite training.
They are required to wear specialized, protective, Arc flash, and flame resistant clothing on the job. They use only KOHLER® Power System’s tested and regulated products, which are built to protect customers and employees alike. Your safety is always our priority.
