In addition to this, one of the features of this model is the possibility of remote-controlled ignition. In fact, two remote controls will be supplied with the generator, allowing it to be switched on and/or off at any time

The inverter technology:

This generator produces electrical energy with a constant frequency and voltage, regardless of the variation of the load and the engine speed; this is made possible by the use of an electronic converter that disengages the amplitude of the input voltage from the output.

Unlike traditional generators, a permanent magnet generator is used together with a speed monitoring system of the engine rpm according to the actually used power, which allows a significant reduction of fuel consumption and less noise with the use of average loads downs.

Main applications:

The reliability and the quality of the energy produced with this system allows the power supply of electronic equipment such as computers, medical equipment, measuring instruments and any special equipment that is particularly sensitive to voltage and frequency variations.

This generator is designed for private and hobby use, for emergency purposes in case of a power failure or for uses that are not too intensive or frequent, such as those of a business or professional activity.

The generator is not designed for energy production, charging or maintaining batteries for the photovoltaic or solar panels systems (or similar); this can seriously damage the generator.

WARNING: All power generators like this, belonging to one of the lower product levels of the PROFESSIONAL (reference to the product level rating scale used on this site) must not work for sessions longer than 3–4 hours continuously, in order not to compromise in the medium to long term durability of the alternator and other components due to overheating or wear. The same problem would present itself if these products were to be used daily or at least frequently. In all these cases, we recommend opting for generators classified as least as PROFESSIONAL, as listed on the rating scale on this website.

Electric start thanks to engine Start-Stop button

Indicator lights:

-Power supply. It comes on after the power switch is activated. Under normal conditions, only this green light should be on.

- Overload signalling. If the generator is overloaded, or if there is a malfunction or short-circuit in a connected piece of equipment, this red overload lamp lights up. After a few seconds, the power supply will be cut off and the green light will go out. In this case, the engine must be switched off and the reason for the overload must be found out.

- Oil warning system. Designed to prevent engine damage caused by an insufficient amount of oil. Before the oil level can drop below the safety limit, the red oil warning light turns on and the oil alarm system will automatically stop the engine. * Warning: the engine is provided without oil.

Complete instructions for a correct start-up

As far as the needed power is concerned, we now provide you with a handy chart to help you navigate among consumption, starting coefficients and watt.

The best criteria is to pinpoint first which are the instruments we need to power with the generator and, consequently, perform a simple calculation, as explained below, to identify the needed power that the generator need to eject.

Power required = Electric appliance consumption X Breakaway starting coefficient

The starting coefficient is a fundamental characteristic of any instrument which works with electric current because it indicates how much the consumption of the object increases. Therefore, this is needed to concretely determine how many WATTS are necessary during the start-up operations.

Example: Compressor (1500 Watt) X Starting coefficient (2) = 3000 Watt, Hence you should orientate towards a generator which has a WATT power equal or superior to the result (*)

Check the consumption of the appliance on the instructions and maintenance manual or on the plate attached to the machine.

WARNING: the chart is purely indicative. Thanks to the formula above, you can easily calculate the power a generator should deliver to connect and start some specific products and select the model of generator which best suits your needs. And remember that to operate the electronic equipment (computers, televisions and all the equipment equipped with an electronic card) must purchase a current with "inverter" generator (which stabilizes the output power).

• This inverter generator is equipped with an ELECTRONIC CARD in order to stabilise the output current, generating an almost perfect wave.
  This makes it particularly suitable for application in certain uses, but also unsuitable for others.
  Some examples of FIELD OF APPLICATION : powering all types of electronic equipment (as they are equipped with electronic boards and consequently require a very stable power supply to avoid the risk of damaging these boards), household appliances, kitchen and domestic equipment and appliances, lights and lamps; in conclusion, they are specific for strictly domestic use, or for holiday and leisure use (in a motor home, boat, etc.).

  Some examples of NON APPLICATION FIELDS : Construction equipment, workshop equipment, do-it-yourself, welding machines, equipment of any kind equipped with brush motors (which in the event of wear on the brushes can move back towards the generator some power surges that can damage the generator electronic card); basically, for all this list of working, construction or artisan equipment, an inverter generator is too delicate and therefore inadequate, therefore it is necessary to focus on a classic generator, not with inverter card, but equipped with the classic alternator with stator and heavy rotor, most suitable for powering this equipment.

  We remind you that the inverter generator was designed for NOT PROFESSIONAL use, it is therefore apt for occasional use (not frequent). The working sessions must not be over 3-4 continuous hours (which would cause the alternator to overheat and wear) If you need a generator for frequent use (for example once a week), the user should look towards another type of generator, specifically intended for a frequent use and precisely a PROFESSIONAL or even INDUSTRIAL quality-level generator;

  The generator is not designed to be installed in photovoltaic or solar energy systems for energy production, nor for the recharging or maintenance of batteries of these specific or other electric systems. Indeed, it may damage seriously the generator on its internal components (alternator, engine and electrical component). Each photovoltaic system requires a generator for INDUSTRIAL use (not for domestic use as this present model), specifically designed and manufactured for this purpose. WE DO NOT PROVIDE WARRANTY on generators connected to photovoltaic systems, as this entails an IMPROPER USE OF THE UNIT.
