Echo DGK180F 180 kVA industrial diesel generator — 144 kW (180 kVA) 3-phase / 108 kW 1-phase continuous, 65 dB(A) at 23 ft, Isuzu 6HK1, 27 hr runtime at full load.
Echo DGK180F — 180 kVA Industrial Diesel Generator
The Echo DGK180F delivers 144 kW (180 kVA) 3-phase / 108 kW 1-phase continuous output at 65 dB(A) measured at 23 feet, powered by a Isuzu 6HK1 rated 227.3 hp (169.5 kW) @ 1800 rpm. The 275.0-gallon tank gives roughly 27 hours of runtime at full load, or about 49 hours at half load.
Note: this model ships Shindaiwa / Kwiet Power branded. Shindaiwa and Echo are the same manufacturer — Shindaiwa generators are built in Japan and distributed in the US by ECHO Incorporated.

Ultra-quiet design
Echo industrial generators are built for sound-sensitive jobsites: air dams and insulated panels double the cooling air path, heavy-gauge door panels and sound-absorbing foam damp the enclosure, and a tuned muffler with an extended exhaust pipe cuts both high and low frequency noise -- without power-robbing auxiliary fans.
Simul-Phase®
Simul-Phase® delivers single- and three-phase power at the same time from a split buss, with 120/240V single-phase available at every voltage setting -- no transformer required. Priority trip breakers separate single- and three-phase loads so preferred circuits stay up during an overload.
S.E.T. Smart Emissions Technology™
S.E.T. Smart Emissions Technology™ provides added aftertreatment protection during light or underloaded operation -- the condition that most often fouls Tier 4 emissions systems on standby and rental duty.
