Technical specifications

Specification checks

Confirm the continuous rating before purchase: the supplied information describes 5kW as maximum output, while 5kW and 6.5kVA do not agree at the stated power factor of 1. The runtime also does not align with the listed tank capacity and consumption.

The supplied “transistorized magneto” ignition description appears inconsistent with a diesel engine and needs supplier verification.

Load and operating guidance

The supplied limits specify an initial load of no more than 50% and a continuous load of no more than 75% of the confirmed rated output. Have an electrician assess your requirements, including appliance startup surges.

Operate outdoors, away from doors, windows and vents. Building connections require a suitable professionally installed changeover system. Stop the engine and allow it to cool before refuelling.
