The Cummins 6CTA8.3-G2 Engine Advantage At the heart of this generator is the Cummins 6-cylinder turbocharged engine. Known for its mechanical fuel system, it is exceptionally “forgiving” and easy to service with locally available parts in Kenya.

Description
At Reefer Center, we specialize in finding industrial gems. This Cummins 180kVA unit was sourced from a standby emergency circuit in the USA, where it was only run for brief monthly maintenance checks. With just 240 hours on the clock, the engine is in pristine condition. This is the highest quality used generator available in the Kenyan market today, offering a lifespan that far exceeds locally overworked units.
