[RE-wrenches] WATER COOLED - 1800 RPM - 13KW GENERATORS INQUIRY

[Luke Christy]

Hi Dana,
Following up on this, I would certainly be interested. 
We are a  small shop but I typically sell and install 5-8 generators per year. These are almost always Kohler 3600rpm 14kW units, so a 13 kW low speed unit would be welcome as an option. 

Thanks!
