Maximizes engine “breathing” for increased fuel efficiency. Cylinder walls run cooler, reducing
oil consumption. Because heat is the primary cause of engine wear, the OHVI has a significantly
longer life than competitive engines.
Rigid construction and added durability provide long engine life.
These features combine to assure smooth, quick starting every time.
Superior lubrication to all vital bearings means better performance, less maintenance and significantly
longer engine life.
Superior shutdown protection prevents catastrophic engine damage due to low oil.
Prevents damage due to overheating.
Allows for smaller, light weight unit that operates 25% more efficiently than a revolving armature generator.
Maximizes motor starting capability. Provides more surge capability than brushless generator designs.
Regulates the output voltage to ±2% prevents damaging voltage spikes.
For your safety.
Transfers your vital electrical loads to the energized source of power.
Required (order separately).
Mounts near your existing distribution panel for simple, low cost installation.
For your safety.
Selects the operating mode.
Constantly monitors utility voltage, setpoints 65% dropout, 75% pick-up, of standard voltage.
Prevents nuisance start-ups of the engine, set point approximately 10 seconds.
Ensures engine is ready to assume the load, setpoint approximately 10 seconds.
Allows engine to cool prior to shutdown, setpoint approximately 1 minute.
Operates engine to prevent oil seal drying and damage between power outages.
Maintains battery voltage to insure starting.
Protects generator from overload.
Ensures protection against mother nature. Hinged key locking roof panel for security.
Lift-out front for easy access to all routine maintenance items. Electrostatically applied
textured epoxy paint for added durability. Corrosion resistant aluminum is standard.
Quiet, critical grade muffler is mounted inside the unit to prevent injuries.
Makes for an easy, eye appealing installation.
Easy Installation.
