Honda EU22i Single-Phase Silenced Inverter 2.2 KW Generator

The Honda Eu22i generator has an unparalleled constructive and quality level being entirely built by Honda, a leader in the production of engines.

The inverter technology:

This generator produces electrical energy with a constant frequency and voltage, regardless of the variation of the load and the engine speed; this is made possible by the use of an electronic converter that disengages the amplitude of the input voltage from the output.

Unlike traditional generators, a permanent magnet generator is used together with a speed monitoring system of the engine rpm according to the actually used power, which allows a significant reduction of fuel consumption and less noise with the use of average loads downs.

The reliability and the quality of the energy produced with this system allows the power supply of electronic equipment such as computers, medical equipment, measuring instruments, and any particularly device sensitive to variations in voltage and frequency.

Silenced Generator:

this aspect allows the use in camping sites, caravans, in public places, homes, condos, villas, townhouses, hobby or wherever it is required silent electricity.

Noise level at mt: 90 db

CAUTION: All power generators like this, belonging to one of the lowest levels of the PROFESSIONAL level products (refer to the product level rating scale used on this site) should not work for longer sessions of 3-4 hours continuously, in order to not to compromise in the medium-long term durability of the alternator and other components due to overheating or to wear. The same problem would present itself if these products were to be used daily or at least frequently. In all these cases we recommend to opt for generators classified as least as PROFESSIONAL, as listed on the rating scale on this website..

Maximum nominal power: 2.2 KVA

Nominal power in continuous running (COP): 1,8 KW
*This s the data that should be taken into consideration as an effective and constant data for the generator output (it guarantees the product an infinite duration)

TECHNICAL DATA:

VOLTAGE: 230 volts
FREQUENCY: 50 Hz
TANK CAPACITY: 3.6 L

WARNING: Motor without oil
(Put oil for 4-stroke engines before starting the machine)

Major advantages over conventional 2-stroke mixture engines:

• Greater reliability
• Higher durability
• Easier start especially after long periods of inactivity
• Lesser problems related to the preparation and to the fuel freshness
• Lower fuel consumption (less than half!).
• Less maintenance

Start: Recoil start with self recovery

Focus on the fuel plug equipped with ventilation valve (to open in the starting phase, to be closed during storage)

Silenced generator. The silencer allows you to use the current generator for camping, caravans, in public places, homes, condos, villas, townhouses, hobby or wherever it is required silent electricity.

2 Schuko CE power outlet with delivery at 220 volts

1 taken parallel connection By connecting a second generator of the same model it is possible to double the output power.

Charger socket:
The charger is equipped with overload circuit, which can activate the charger protection device.
If this happens, you should hold the reset button (on the side)

Smart-Throttle switch: when they are not connected to the generator equipment, or when the power is off and there is no consumption of energy produced by the generator, it works in gasoline saving mode. This device is used to minimize fuel consumption and reduce noise levels when there isn’t any load applied to the generator. When recovering the energy consumption by connecting or switching on the equipment, the generator automatically switches to the correct speed so as to deliver sufficient current. * This function should only be used with the power supply 220 volts (not with the battery charger)

INDICATING LIGHTS:

- UPPER LIGHT: Oil warning system. Designed to prevent engine damage caused by an insufficient amount of oil. Before the oil level can drop below the safety limit, the red oil warning light turns on and the oil alarm system will stop automatically the engine. * Warning: the engine is provided without oil.

- LOWER LIGHT: Electricity supply. It subsequently illuminates when power switch is on. Under normal conditions this green light should be the only one turned on.

- CENTRAL LIGHT: Overload warning. If the generator is overloaded or if there is a malfunction or a short circuit in a device connected, this red overload indicator lights up. After, it will stop the power supply and the green light will turn off.
In this case, stop the engine and find out the cause of the overload

Focus on the supporting rubber feet which guarantee maximum stability

Focus on the recoil starter

Exceptionally low weight: only 22 kg!

As far as the needed power is concerned, we now provide you with an handy chart to help you navigate among consumption, starting coefficients and watt.

The best criteria is to pinpoint first which are the instruments we need to power with the generator and, consequently perform a simple calculation, as explained below, to identify the needed power that the generator need to eject.

Power required = Electric appliance consumption X Breakaway starting coefficient

The starting coefficient is a fundamental characteristic of any instrument which works with electric current because it indicates how much the consumption of the object increases. Therefore, this is needed to concretely determine how many WATT are necessary during the start up operations.

Example: Compressor (1500 Watt ) X Starting coefficient (2) = 3000 Watt Hence you should orientate towards a generator which has a WATT power equal or superior to the result (*)

Check the consumption of the appliance on the instruction and maintenance manual or on the plate attached to the machine.

WARNING: the chart is purely indicative. Thanks to the formula above you can easily calculate the power a generator should deliver to connect and start some specific products and select the model of generator which best suits your needs. And remember that to operate the electronic equipment (computers, televisions and all the equipment equipped with an electronic card) must purchase a current with "inverter" generator (which stabilizes the output current).

• This inverter generator is equipped with an electronic card in order to stabilize the output current, generating an almost perfect wave.
  This makes it particularly suitable for application in certain uses, but also not suitable for other.
  Some examples of FIELD OF APPLICATION : Feeding of all kinds of electronic equipment (being equipped with electronic card which consequently require a very stable power to avoid the risk of damaging such cards), appliances, equipment and kitchen and domestic equipment, lights and lamps; In conclusion they are specific to a strictly domestic use or for vacation and leisure use (in a camper, boat, etc ...)

  Some examples of NON APPLICATION FIELDS : Construction equipment, workshop equipment, do-it-yourself, welding machines, equipment of any kind equipped with brush motors (which in the event of wear on the brushes can move back towards the generator some power surges that can damage the the generator electronic card); basically, for all this list of working, construction or artisan equipment, an inverter generator is too delicate and therefore inadequate, therefore it is necessary to focus on a classic generator, not with inverter card, but equipped with the classic alternator with stator and heavy rotor, most suitable for powering this equipment.

  We remind you that the inverter generator was designed for NOT PROFESSIONAL use, it is therefore apt for occasional use (not frequent). The working sessions must no be over 3-4 continuous hours (which would cause the alternator to overheat and wear) If you need a generator for frequent use (for example once a week), the user should look towards another type of generator, specifically intended for a frequent use and precisely a PROFESSIONAL or even INDUSTRIAL quality-level generator;

  The generator is not designed to be installed in photovoltaic or solar energy systems for energy production nor for the recharging or maintenance of batteries of these specific or other electric systems. Indeed, it may damage seriously the generator on its internal components (alternator, engine and electrical component). Each photovoltaic system requires a generator for INDUSTRIAL use (not for domestic use as this present model), specifically designed and manufactured for this purpose. WE DO NOT PROVIDE WARRANTY on generators connected to photovoltaic systems, as this entails an IMPROPER USE OF THE UNIT.
