Description
Product Overview
The BetaSet / BetaGen 22/2 is a compact, marine-grade generator set delivering up to 23 kVA. Built around a 4‑cylinder Kubota-based engine with either 3000 rpm (50 Hz) or 3600 rpm (60 Hz) operation, it’s available with heat exchanger, keel, or radiator cooling. This model is ideal for vessels under 20 m or 100 m³ and meets CCNR Stage IIIA emission requirements.
Key Features
