6.5kVA Hyundai Diesel Generator DHY6000SE-RS Remote Start

Want it to start by itself when the power goes out? We sell it with the matched Genelite GT20628-1 automatic transfer switch as the 6.5kVA DHY6000SE-RS + GT20628-1 ATS Package.

The Hyundai DHY6000SE-RS is a 6.5kVA (5.2kW) single phase diesel generator powered by the Hyundai HYD400 engine, with electric start and two-wire remote start. Remote start lets it be wired to an automatic transfer switch so it starts, takes the load and shuts down again without anyone on hand. It has a 16 litre fuel tank, runs up to 16 hours at 50% load, and is rated for standby duty only.

Key features

• Remote start capability: pairs with an automatic transfer switch for hands-free changeover when the mains fails and returns.
• Electric start: push-button starting, with no pull cord.
• 6.5kVA / 5.2kW output: enough for a household's essential circuits or a small business's lights, fridges and point of sale.
• Hyundai HYD400 diesel engine: diesel fuel that shares supply with farm machinery and site plant.
• Up to 16 hours at 50% load from a 16 litre tank: overnight backup on a single fill.
• Measured at 74 dB(A) at 7 m: a published noise figure for planning placement near the house.
• 32 A plug supplied: a 32 A plug is supplied with the DHY6000 family for connection via a suitably rated inlet.

Operating data: a 16 litre tank and 16 hours at 50% load works out to roughly 1 litre of diesel per hour at half load. At its 5.2kW figure the generator supplies roughly 21.7 amps at 240 V. Noise is rated at 74 dB(A) at 7 m, and the unit measures 92 x 56 x 76 cm.

What it will run

With 5.2kW available, the DHY6000SE-RS typically carries a home's priority circuits through an outage: fridge and freezer, lighting, TV and internet, a pressure pump, and a microwave or kettle used one at a time. In a small business it typically holds lights, fridges and point of sale. Motor loads draw a surge at start-up, so with an automatic transfer switch it pays to put only priority circuits on the generator side. Check appliance rating plates and keep the combined running load within 5.2kW.

The DHY6000SE-RS suits homes where nobody may be there when the power drops, rural properties with pumps and cold storage, home offices that cannot lose internet, and small shops and workshops. Paired with an automatic transfer switch it gives unattended changeover, and the switch must be installed into the switchboard by a licensed electrician.
