To choose the right portable generator, you should focus your attention mainly on three points:

Usage. Decide which type of use should be your goal: home standby, long run, temporary run use;

Tension. Consider if you need a single phase or a three phase

Power. Determine how much power you need for the items you care about 

The generator dimensions are strictly related to the quantity of power they are able to supply. To determine the right size, add up the total watts of all lights, appliances, tools, or other equipment you would like to connect simultaneously to the generator. Getting the right starting and running wattage of the devices you intend to power is crucial for calculating the accurate power requirements. Normally, you will find this information in the identification plate or in the owner’s manual of each respective tool or electrical equipment.

An inverter generator produces direct current power and then converts it to alternating current power using digital electronics. This results in a higher quality more consistent power, which is safer and more reliable to power delicate equipment and electronics with microprocessors such as computers, televisions, digital devices and smartphones. 

Inverter generators are quieter and lighter than conventional generators of the same wattage.

Please take safety precautions when running a portable generator. It is important not to run generators inside a home, garage or any enclosed space.

Before the first ignition, we recommend you to consult the instruction and maintenance manual and proceed as follows:

Put the oil in the engine 

Fill the tank with the fuel type indicated 

Pull the air choke

Pull the recoil handle (Only for the models with electrical start, it is necessary to connect the battery before turning the key or push the button)

The first thing you have to do is turning off all the connected tools and appliances and letting the generator set run for a few minutes to cool down. You should then stop the generator set by pressing the Start/On/Off switch in the OFF position and finally close the fuel valve. 

A transfer switch is a device that safely connects your generator to the electrical grid within your home or your commercial business. The switch provides an easy and effective method of transferring power from a standard source (i.e. grid) to the generator, when the standard source fails. When the standard source is restored, the Automatic Transfer Switches power back to the standard source and shuts the generator down. ATS are often used in high availability environments such as data centers, manufacturing plans, telecommunication networks and so forth.

Pramac portable generators range offers different soundproofing levels according to different models.

Different types of fuel are used with our portable generators: petrol, diesel. These are all traditional fuels, normally used as cars power.

It depends on how long the generator runs. In the instruction and maintenance manual, you will find specific instructions about the engine. Anyways, it is advisable to change the oil at least once a year.

Don’t forget to add the oil bottle to your basket when purchasing your product.

Please set even the small generators outdoors and use it only on a horizontal surface (not inclined). You need to position it away from doors and windows so that the exhaust fumes do not get inside the house.
