The Kohler 200REZXB is a 200-kilowatt LPG industrial standby generator in an enclosed configuration. Rated at 130-200 kW standby depending on voltage, it uses a Doosan engine paired with a brushless permanent-magnet alternator at 1800 RPM. This unit is EPA certified for both stationary emergency and non-emergency applications, with hurricane-rated enclosure options available.
At 200 kW, gaseous generators eliminate on-site fuel storage requirements and SPCC compliance. LPG provides clean combustion with lower emissions than diesel and avoids fuel degradation issues common with low-runtime standby diesel. The trade-off is dependence on propane delivery infrastructure during extended outages, and propane tank sizing must account for expected outage duration at this higher load level.
OnPoint Generators provides installation, maintenance, and emergency service for Kohler gaseous generators throughout Northern California. The Doosan engine platform in the REZX series is a robust industrial powerplant well-suited for continuous standby duty, and we structure PM programs around annual ignition, fuel system, and coolant inspections.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the standby rating of the Kohler 200REZXB?
The 200REZXB is rated 130-200 kW standby (163-250 kVA) depending on voltage configuration, with prime ratings of 174-176 kW, operating on LPG at 60 Hz.
What fuel does the Kohler 200REZXB use?
The 200REZXB operates on LPG (propane). Natural gas and dual-fuel variants are also available in the REZX line.
What is the difference between RZX and REZX models?
RZX designates the open-frame (skid-mounted) configuration, while REZX is the enclosed (sound-attenuated or weather-protective) version. Both use the same engine-alternator package; the difference is the enclosure.
