The Cummins P2600 is a 50 Hz portable generator similar to the P2200 model. The P2600 has a slightly shorter runtime, yet offers more power. Consumers that are looking for that extra wattage without spending a lot should consider the P2600. This model is perfect for emergency or standby use at the home. Its highly mobile design and the highly recommended (optional) wheel kit makes this power supply well suited for transport and operation in diverse settings.

The 6.5 hp 196 cc OHV engine produces a max AC output of 2600 watts and a rated power of 2500 watts. The P2600 also operates at 230V and features a 12V 8.3 amp DC output. This increase in AC power from the P2200 model adds versatility when considering potential uses; however, it does use a little more fuel. Like the P2200, the P2600 has a large 15 liter fuel tank which supports operation for up to 8 hours. Its all about what you as a consumer are seeking, the P2200 for endurance and the P2600 for power.

This model is fairly quiet at 68 dBA. This is the same noise level as the P2200 despite the larger output. This primarily due to both models having the same size engine with generally the same features. While some models are a little quieter, most are in this range if not louder.

The P2600 features a safety system which determines when the oil level reaches unacceptable standards that threat overheating and then shuts off the generator to prevent any engine damage. This model also has full circuit breaker protection and a cast iron cylinder sleeve for durability. In addition, there is a dual element air cleaner and a manual starting system.

The P2600 comes insured with a 2 year limited warranty.
