The Gentech EP2800HSR is a 2.8kVA single phase petrol generator with a Honda GP200 engine and recoil start. Maximum output is 2.8kVA at 0.8 power factor, which works out to about 2.2kW, at 230V, and the alternator is rated at 2.8kVA.
Key features
- Recoil start turns the engine over by hand on a pull cord, so there is no battery to charge or replace between jobs.
- The set comes in a sturdy rollover frame, which protects the engine and alternator from knocks.
- The Honda GP200 drives the 2.8kVA alternator, a pairing aimed at small power tools.
- Two 15A outlets let you run a tool and a work light at the same time, within the total output.
- The 230V single phase supply suits ordinary tools and lighting without any three phase wiring.
The 3.1 litre tank gives about 2.32 hours at 80% load, with fuel use of about 1.34 L/h, so a longer job means refuelling part way through. Noise is 67 dBA at 7 m.
What it will run
At 0.8 power factor the 2.8kVA maximum works out to about 2.2kW of usable output. Add up the running load of everything that will be on at once and leave a margin under that figure. It typically suits small power tools, work lights, a small fridge or a fan. Anything with a motor draws a larger surge at start, so allow extra for it, and check each appliance's compliance plate for its rated watts or amps. A 15A outlet at 230V can supply more than this set's whole output, so the generator, not the outlet, sets the limit. A home connection needs an inlet and changeover switch installed by a licensed electrician. Send us your load list and we will help you size it.
The EP2800HSR suits small power tool work on jobs and around the property, market stalls and outdoor events, and light backup for a few home essentials.
