The Cummins Engine Company was founded in 1919 in Indianapolis, Indiana, to design and manufacture diesel engines. It was profitable in only three years, and after six years, offered the first 100K mile engine warranty. Since then, Cummins engines and generator sets have earned the reputation for being durable and technically innovative.
Cummins KTA19 generator sets are rated to produce stationary standby, prime, and continuous duty power using either natural gas or diesel engines for commercial industrial applications. Standard equipment includes a Cummins industrial 4-cycle, spark-ignited engine with robust motor-starting capacity. Optional equipment includes gen set housing with heaters for operation in extreme conditions.
