The German company Konner & Sohnen has been the world market leader in the segment of generators for home and small businesses for many years. The units are produced at factories in Germany, which gives confidence in the high quality of the goods. The KS 8000DE ATSR diesel generator is an unpretentious and reliable model, for which you will have to pay a lot — $ 1,500. Let's see if the game is worth the candle.

Compact and confident

The working units of the unit are enclosed in a metal frame measuring 760x500x650 mm, so the generator does not take up much space and is stable on any surface. The weight is small — 106.5 kg, but the lack of wheels complicates transportation.

Startup and smooth operation

The unit can be started both manually and with an electric starter. There is a connector that allows you to connect the ATS unit and solve the problem of autostart in case of a sudden shutdown of the main power supply line. The fuel tank capacity of 15 liters is enough for 12 hours of continuous operation at half load, which is not the best indicator, given the cost. The same Forte FGD 8000E with the same tank capacity will last longer.

Equipment Features

The unit generates a maximum of 6.5 kWh. This is enough to power several household appliances without any problems and provide lighting for a small object. The automatic voltage regulator (AVR) “monitors” the uniformity of the voltage. There are 2 sockets for 230 V, one of which is power for 32 A, and a DC output of 12 V, for recharging, for example, a car battery.

The scrupulous Germans did not forget about the voltmeter and hour metre, the readings of which are displayed on a small display. In general, they provided a set of options, as they say, on a turnkey basis.

Despite the damper supports that reduce the level of vibration during operation, the unit emits a strong noise — 97 dB (at a distance of 7 m). It feels like you are in a working metalworking shop.

And yet, the main advantage of the KS 8000DE ATSR is its reliability, for which it is popular not only among domestic consumers, but also on small construction sites.
