Könner & Söhnen KS 6000iEHS CO 5500W Dual Fuel Inverter Generator
These New German-engineered generators from Könner & Söhnen are now available in the USA. Trusted worldwide, this is our newest line of high-end generators.
The Könner & Söhnen KS 6000iEHS CO is a powerful 120V/240V dual fuel inverter generator designed for home backup power, emergency preparedness, RV use, jobsites, workshops, and other applications where dependable portable power is essential. Producing up to 5,500 starting watts and 5,000 running watts on gasoline, this compact inverter generator gives you the flexibility to operate on either gasoline or propane (LPG).
Unlike conventional open-frame generators, the KS 6000iEHS CO uses inverter technology to produce a pure sine wave with less than 3% THD, providing clean power suitable for sensitive electronics such as computers, televisions, communications equipment, chargers, and other electronic devices.
With 120V/240V output and a 30-amp receptacle, the KS 6000iEHS CO is also an excellent choice for emergency home backup applications where 240V capability is required. Connect it to an appropriately installed manual transfer switch or generator interlock to supply selected household circuits during an outage.
Dual Fuel Gasoline & Propane Operation
Fuel flexibility can make a major difference during an extended power outage. The KS 6000iEHS CO can operate on either gasoline or LPG/propane, allowing you to choose the fuel that is most readily available.

Gasoline provides maximum generator output of 5,500 starting watts and 5,000 running watts. When operating on propane, generator output is approximately 10% lower. A propane hose with reducer/regulator is included, so the generator is ready for LPG operation without requiring a separate conversion kit.
120V/240V Power for Home Backup
Many smaller inverter generators provide only 120V output. The KS 6000iEHS CO provides 120V/240V AC power and includes a 30A 120V/240V outlet, making it considerably more versatile for home backup applications.
Depending on your electrical loads and installation, it can help power essential equipment such as:
- Refrigerators and freezers
- Lights
- Sump pumps
- Well pumps within generator starting capacity
- Furnace blowers
- Televisions and electronics
- Internet and communications equipment
- Small appliances
- Power tools
- Selected household circuits through an approved transfer switch or interlock
Always calculate starting and running wattage before connecting multiple loads.
Clean Inverter Power – Less Than 3% THD
The KS 6000iEHS CO combines the higher output normally associated with conventional portable generators with the clean electrical output of an inverter generator.
Its microprocessor-controlled inverter produces a pure sine wave with less than 3% total harmonic distortion (THD). This makes it suitable for powering sensitive electronic equipment while still providing enough capacity for demanding household and jobsite loads.
Electric Start with Recoil Backup
Starting the generator is simple with its convenient electric start system. A recoil starter is also provided as a backup.
The integrated 3-in-1 start dial combines key starting functions into a simplified control system, helping make generator startup easier during an outage or emergency.
Built-In Carbon Monoxide Safety Shutoff
The KS 6000iEHS CO features an integrated carbon monoxide monitoring and automatic shutoff system. If unsafe carbon monoxide levels are detected around the generator, the system is designed to automatically shut down the engine.
Important: A CO shutoff system does not make any portable generator safe for indoor operation. Always operate generators outdoors in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions and away from doors, windows, vents, garages, and occupied structures.
Eco Mode for Improved Fuel Efficiency
When electrical demand is lower, Eco Mode allows engine speed to adjust according to the connected load rather than continuously operating at maximum engine speed.
This can reduce fuel consumption and operating noise while extending available runtime—particularly useful during prolonged outages when fuel conservation is important.
LED Generator Monitoring Display
The integrated LED display provides important operating information at a glance, including:
- Output power
- Voltage
- Frequency
- Working hours
- Fuel level
- CO sensor failure warning
- Carbon monoxide shutdown indicator
- Low oil alarm
- Overload alarm
- Output status
Quiet, Enclosed Inverter Generator Design
The fully enclosed housing helps reduce operating noise compared with many traditional open-frame portable generators. The manufacturer lists a sound pressure level of approximately 64 dB at 23 feet under its specified test conditions.
The generator also carries an IP23M protection rating. Always follow the manufacturer's operating instructions regarding generator placement and exposure to weather.
Copper-Wound Alternator
The KS 6000iEHS CO uses a copper-wound alternator designed to provide reliable electrical output during sustained operation. Combined with its inverter electronics and K&S engine, the generator is built for dependable emergency, recreational, and jobsite power.
Portable Design
Despite its substantial power output and 120V/240V capability, the KS 6000iEHS CO weighs approximately 86.9 lbs. Integrated wheels and a folding transport handle make it easier to move the generator into position and return it to storage when not in use.
