Description

Guardian 13kva 50hz Standby Generator Features and Benefits

Provides essential circuit power protection for your home, ensuring the necessities remain powered during an outage. The most affordable automatic standby generator on the market offers protection for half the cost of central air conditioning.

Engine

Generac G-Force design: Maximizes engine "breathing" for increased fuel efficiency. Plateau honed cylinder walls and plasma moly rings help the engine run cooler, reducing oil consumption resulting in longer engine life.
Quiet-Test™: Greatly reduces sound output and fuel consumption during bi-weekly exercise.
Spiny-lok cast iron cylinder walls: Rigid construction and added durability provide long engine life.
Electronic ignition/spark advance: These features combine to assure smooth, quick starting every time.
Full pressure lubrication system: Pressurized lubrication to all vital bearings means better performance, less maintenance, and longer engine life. Now featuring up to a 2 year/200 hour oil change interval.
Low oil pressure shutdown system: Shutdown protection prevents catastrophic engine damage due to low oil.
High temperature shutdown: Prevents damage due to overheating.

Generator

Revolving field: Allows for a smaller, light weight unit that operates 25% more efficiently than a revolving armature generator set.
Skewed stator: Produces a smooth output waveform for compatibility with electronic equipment.
Displaced phase excitation: Maximizes motor starting capability.
Automatic voltage regulation: Regulates the output voltage to +1% prevents damaging voltage spikes.
True Power Technoloav: Less than 5% total harmonic distortion (THD).

Evolution™ Controls

AUTO/MANUAL/OFF illuminated buttons: Selects the operating mode and provides easy, at-a-glance status indication in any condition.
Two-line multilingual LCD: Provides homeowners easily visible logs of history, maintenance, and events up to 50 occurrences.
Sealed, raised buttons: Smooth, weather-resistant user interface for programming and operations.
Utility voltage sensing: Constantly monitors utility voltage, defaults 264V dropout, 350V pick up.
Utility interrupt delay: Prevents nuisance start-ups of the engine, adjustable 2-1500 seconds from factory default setting of 5 seconds by a qualified dealer.
Generator voltage sensing: Constantly monitors generator set voltage to verify the cleanest power is delivered to the home.
Voltage selection options: Output voltage is selectable through the controller from 380V, 400V, or 416V.
Engine warm-up: Verifies engine is ready to assume the load; setpoint approximately 5 seconds.
Engine cool-down: Allows engine to cool prior to shutdown; setpoint approximately 1 minute.
Programmable exercise: Operates engine to prevent oil seal drying and damage between power outages by running the generator set for 5 minutes every other week. Offers a selectable setting for weekly or monthly operation providing flexibility and poten- tially lower fuel costs to the owner.
Smart battery charger: Delivers charge to the battery only when needed at varying rates depending on outdoor air temperature. Compatible with lead acid and AGM-style batteries.
Electronic governor: Maintains constant 50 Hz frequency.

Unit

SAE weather protective enclosure: Sound attenuated enclosures provides quiet operation and protection against mother nature, withstanding winds up to 241 km/h (150 mph). Hinged key locking roof panel for security. Lift-out front for easy access to all routine main- tenance items. Electrostatically applied textured epoxy paint for added durability.
Enclosed critical grade muffler: Quiet, critical grade muffler is mounted inside the unit to prevent injuries.
Small, compact, attractive: Makes for an easy, eye appealing installation, as close as 45.7 cm (18 in) away from a building.

Installation System

30.5 cm (1 ft) flexible fuel line connector: Absorbs any generator set vibration when connected to rigid pipe.
Integral sediment trap: Prevents particles and moisture from entering the fuel regulator and engine, prolonging engine life.

Remote Monitoring

Ability to view generator set status: Monitor the generator set via your smartphone, tablet, or computer at any time via the Mobile Link application for complete peace of mind.
Ability to view generator set Exercise/Run and Total Hours: Review the generator set's complete protection profile for exercise hours and total hours.
Ability to view generator set maintenance information: Provides maintenance information for the specific model generator set when scheduled maintenance is due.
Monthly report with previous month's activity: Detailed monthly reports provide historical generator set information.
Ability to view generator set battery information: Built in battery diagnostics displaying current state of the battery.
