O INNOVATIVE ENGINE DESIGN & RIGOROUS TESTING are at the heart of Generac's O success in providing the most reliable generators possible. Generac's G-Force engine lineup offers added peace of mind and reliability for when you need it the most. The G-Force series engines are purpose built and designed to handle the rigors of extended run times in high temperatures and extreme operating conditions. O TRUE POWER'" ELECTRICAL TECHNOLOGY: Superior harmonics and sine wave O form produce less than 5°% Total Harmonic Distortion for utility quality power. This allows confident operation of sensitive electronic equipment and micro -chip based appliances, such as variable speed HVAC systems. C UL US 0 LISTED U1EFqBT_ Note: CUL certification only applies to unbundled units and units packaged with limited circuit switches. Units packaged with the Smart Switch are UL certified in the USA only. *Only if located away from doors, windows and fresh air intakes, and unless otherwise directed by local codes. SOLID-STATE, FREQUENCY COMPENSATED VOLTAGE REGULATION: This state-of-the-art power maximizing regulation system is standard on all Generac models. It provides optimized FAST RESPONSE to changing load conditions and MAXIMUM MOTOR STARTING CAPABILITY by electronically torque -matching the surge loads to the engine. Digital voltage regulation at .0% SINGLE SOURCE SERVICE RESPONSE from Generac's extensive dealer network provides parts and service know-how for the entire unit, from the engine to the smallest electronic component. O TEST CRITERIA: O GENERAC TRANSFER SWITCHES: Long life and reliability are J PROTOTYPE TESTED V NEMA MGi-22 EVALUATION synonymous with GENERAC POWER SYSTEMS. One reason for this J SYSTEM TORSIONAL TESTED V MOTOR STARTING ABILITY confidence is that the GENERAC product line includes its own transfer systems and controls for total system compatibility. w G E N E R AC at��3s ,��, �► _ • ®Q• *©* Mobil`, 1 I— PROM ISE sfOMEP�P �g3BPN` Link • gufd In the USA wing dpmestle and foreign parts. r ' GENERAC" 16/20/22 kW features and benefits Engine • Generac G-Farce design Maximizes engine "breathing" for increased fuel efficiency.
