danger of destroying voltage sensitive electric
loads, such as computers, stereos, TVs, VCRs,
and all microprocessor based equipment. Most
voltage sensitive electric equipment can withstand
up to 10 % harmonic distortion. The Gen-Pro
easily meets this clean power requirement, at 7 %
distortion levels.
For your protection and peace of mind, always ask
the dealer for a wave-form graph and voltage
curve, before you purchase any generator set for
your home or your business.
Electric current is measured in hertz, the interna-
tional unit of frequency, and it equals 60 cycles
per second. A single cycle or wave form is called
a sine wave and is the method of graphically
showing how clean or distortion free, electric
power can be.
The three graphs show how the Gen-Pro
sine wave compares with standard utility power
and the standard generator set.
The higher
the percentage of distortion, the more
*TIF (Telephone Influence Factor); by definition MG 1-22.43, allows maximum 250 allowable TIF.
GENERAL COMMENTS: Engine horsepower ratings meet SAE J1349 test codes. Reduce 3.5% for each 1000 feet, over 328 feet above sea level

●
Install the weather housed generator outside.
●
Install the auto start-stop panel inside.
●
When commercial power fails, the generator automatically
starts and delivers power to you.
●
When commercial power returns, the generator automati-
cally shuts down and waits for next power failure.
●
Call your dealer for complete information and prices on these
new, packaged stand-by GEN-SETS.
