Blackstone BG 5050-X ES - 3.6 kW Power Generator with AVR - DC 3.2 kW Single-phase

The Blackstone BG 5050-X ES electric single-phase petrol generator is a product with reduced dimensions, easy to transport and protected by a reinforced frame. Thanks to its shape it is easy to transport and use when needed.

The 4 stroke EURO 5 petrol engine guarantees low emissions during use. The petrol engine can deliver a power of 8HP and has a displacement of 224 cc.

Equipped with electric ignition with key.

The alternator is wrapped in copper and the generator can reach a power of 3600W. Thanks to the anti-vibrations grommets located under the alternator, the generator will result more stable during its functioning, thus lowering the vibrations emitted.

The tank has a capacity of 15 L and in the ipper part of the generator close to the plug there is a specific porthole to check the fuel.

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 these models of generators that do not belong to the PROFESSIONAL series (considering the product level evaluation used by our website) are not intended for more than 3-4 hours continuous work in order not to reduce the alternator durability as well as that of one of the other machine components due to the unit overheating or wear. As regards a home or intensive use of these generators, it is important to follow the indications mentioned above. In all these conditions, we highly recommend focusing the attention on the purchase of generators renowned as PROFESSIONAL by the product level classification made in our website.

The Blackstone BG 5050-X generator’s alternator presents a copper winding.

Maximum nominal single-phase power * emergency conditions LTP: 3.2KW

* in case of an emergency the generator can reach this maximum power

Maximum nominal single-phase power * in continuous running LTP: 3.6KW

*This is the data that should be taken into consideration as an effective and constant data for the generator output

Equipped with electric ignition with key.

Focus on the muffler

The Blackstone generator is equipped with AVR board: an electric device which automatically regulates the output of tension, making it constant as the load varies.

Main features of the engine:

The engine is equipped with a 15 L steel tank with tap to stop the petrol.

Focus on the lever for adjusting the petrol

Focus on the air filter.

Extremely complete and rich in functions control panel.

• Led VOLTMETER to see the current voltage output on the outlet
  and the frequency in Hz.
• Electric start with ignition key . When the engine has been started, by pressing this switch the generator will start to deliver power (and the voltmeter display will read 230 volts)
• Thermal protection switch
• 2 16A Schuko power outlet
• Ground discharge

Additional features of the generator:

• Space for the control of the fuel level
• Instruction manual
• 15 L tank plug
• Oil tank plug
• Protection frame

As far as the needed power is concerned, we now provide you with an 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 WATT 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 instruction 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.

• The generator can be exclusively used to power single electrical appliances (with respect to the produced KW power in relation to the absorption during the starting phase that must be lower than the power supplied by the generator).

• The generator can be used to power household device in emergency conditions (no current service provided by the domestic household), exclusively on the models that are specifically provided with ATS (Automatic Transfer Switch) device (specifically designed for this purpose and provided with connecting systems to your household electrical power).

• The generator was NOT designed for PROFESSIONAL use, it is therefore apt for occasional use (not frequent). The working sessions must no be over 3-4 continuous hours (which would cause the alternator to overheat and wear, especially in its internal components rotor and stator) 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 (that is not provided with a standard 3000 rpm alternator as this models is, but one which is designed with a professional alternator with low speed; 1500 rpm - with liquid-cooled engine and alternator - which have a level of specific characteristic and price point very different from this model’s);

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.
