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.

As regards the power needed referring to the use you will make of your generator, here below an extremely useful table to guide you among consumptions, starting coefficient and watt. Firstly, the highest-quality method is to identify which are the electric appliances we need to power with the generator and then perform a simple calculation to identify the necessary power that the generator must supply, as explained below.

Power required = Electric appliance consumption X Breakaway starting coefficient

The starting coefficient represents a fundamental feature for all the electric equipment as it indicates how much the consumption of the electric appliance increases. Therefore, it allows to concretely determine how many WATTs are necessary during the start-up operations.

Example: Air compressor ( 1500 Watt ) X Starting coefficient ( 2 ) = 3000 Watt

Hence, it is important to address your choice on a generator featuring equal or higher WATT-rated electric power than the result obtained from the calculation made.

( * ) Check the consumption of the electric appliance on the operator’s use and maintenance manual or on the plate attached to the machine.

WARNING! Purely indicative table. Thanks to the formula indicated above you can easily calculate the electric power that the generator has to supply in order and connect to the generator specific electric appliances and select the model of generator which best suits your needs.

• The generator can only be used to power individual electrical equipment (respecting the rated power in KW produced by the generator in relation to the absorption of the appliances 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 is NOT intended for PROFESSIONAL use. It means that it is exclusively designed for occasional use (infrequent use of the unit). The working hours must not exceed 3-4 of continuous running (which may lead to the alternator overheating or wear, especially to its internal components: alternator stator and rotor). Whether you’re looking for a generator for intensive use (once a week, for instance), the operator should address the choice to a different type generator specifically designed for a more intensive use. Indeed, you should focus the attention on PROFESSIONAL or even INDUSTRIAL quality-level generator (that is not provided with standard 3000 rev/min alternator as this specific model, but it is designed with professional alternator with low speed: 1500 rev/min – with liquid-cooled engine and alternator – in this case you’ll see that the unit specifications and price are much different from this model).

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.

To use a generator with an AVR correctly, it is important to adhere to the power limits specified by the manufacturer and to avoid running the generator set constantly close to its maximum capacity. Overloading can cause voltage drops, frequency fluctuations, overheating and the activation of protective devices.

Before connecting loads, it is always advisable to check their rated power consumption and any inrush current peaks. Air compressors, pumps, refrigerators and power tools fitted with electric motors may require significantly more power during start-up than their rated power. For this reason, it is advisable to choose a generator with a double power margin and at least 20% more power than the expected total power consumption.

When powering several pieces of equipment simultaneously, it is best to start those with the highest inrush current first and then connect the appliances with lower absorption. This procedure helps to prevent sudden overloads.

Generators with a rotational speed of 3,000 rpm are generally suitable for temporary, emergency or intermittent use. It is therefore advisable to avoid very prolonged continuous use, especially under high loads, in order to limit overheating and wear and tear on components.

The AVR system helps to stabilise the output voltage, but does not make the generator equivalent to an inverter model. Before powering particularly sensitive electronic equipment, such as computers, UPS units or complex electronic devices, it is advisable to always check their compatibility.

If the AC circuit breaker or thermal protection trips, do not reset the system immediately. You must first disconnect the loads, identify the cause of the overload or fault and, if necessary, wait for the generator to cool down.

During a cold start, on models equipped with a starter, use it correctly in accordance with the instructions in the manual. Once the engine has started, return the starter to its normal operating position. At the end of use, it is also advisable to close the fuel tap, where fitted.

Always use fresh, properly stored fuel, avoiding old or contaminated petrol which could cause starting difficulties, erratic running or problems with the fuel system.

The generator must be positioned in a well-ventilated area, ensuring the engine discharge is unobstructed and maintaining a suitable distance from walls, obstacles and flammable materials. Do not use the generator set in enclosed or poorly ventilated spaces.

It is also important to bear in mind that high temperatures and altitude can reduce the available power. Under these conditions, the connected load should be reduced proportionally.

To ensure the generator remains efficient over time, it is advisable to carry out routine maintenance regularly, checking the engine oil, air filter, spark plug and the general condition of the unit in accordance with the intervals specified by the manufacturer.

Finally, any connection to a domestic electrical installation or an ATS system must be carried out exclusively using suitable equipment and by qualified technical personnel, avoiding makeshift or non-compliant connections.
