This is a 5500-watt dual fuel open frame inverter generator with CO Shield carbon monoxide auto shutoff. It is 50% quieter and 20% lighter than a traditional 5500-watt generator. It runs on gasoline or propane, and an EZ Start Dial switches fuels and gives access to the controls.
A 224cc Champion engine powers it. On gasoline it produces 5500 starting watts and 4000 running watts, and runs 13 hours at 25% load on a full 2.9-gallon tank. On propane it produces 5500 starting watts and 3600 running watts, and runs 16 hours at 25% load on a 20-pound tank. A 6-foot propane hose with a built-in regulator is included.
Cold Start Technology supports reliable starts. Intelligauge with a power meter monitors voltage, frequency and operating hours. Economy Mode monitors power consumption in real time to reduce electrical load. A low oil shut-off sensor is built in. The inverter produces clean power with less than 3% THD, and it operates at 70 dBA from 23 feet. CO Shield shuts off the engine if it detects unsafe levels of carbon monoxide. It is not a substitute for a carbon monoxide alarm or safe operation, and the generator must always be used outdoors, away from occupied buildings.
