The Hyundai DHY8700SE-LRS is an 8kVA single phase diesel generator powered by the Hyundai D500E OHV diesel engine. It has a 17 litre fuel tank, runs up to 9 hours at 75% load, and is auto-start capable, so it can be wired to an automatic transfer switch for hands-free changeover. It is rated for standby duty only.
Key features
- Auto-start capability: wired to an automatic transfer switch, it starts when the mains fails, takes the load, and stands down when power returns.
- 8kVA single phase output: sized between portable petrol sets and large stationary diesels.
- Hyundai D500E OHV diesel engine: an overhead-valve diesel that shares fuel with farm machinery and site plant.
- Up to 9 hours at 75% load from a 17 litre tank: a full night of backup at a working load on one fill.
- Measured at 72 dB 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 DHY8700 family for connection via a suitably rated inlet.
Operating data: a 17 litre tank and 9 hours at 75% load works out to roughly 1.9 litres of diesel per hour at that load. Noise is rated at 72 dB at 7 m, and the unit measures 99 x 56.5 x 77 cm. The listing gives an 8kVA output figure without a separate kW rating, so allow headroom when sizing loads.
What it will run
At 8kVA, the DHY8700SE-LRS typically carries a home's main priority circuits through an outage: fridges and freezers, lighting, TV and internet, a pressure pump, and cooking appliances used one at a time. On the farm or in the workshop it typically runs a welder, larger compressor or cool room alongside lighting, within its rating. Motor loads draw a surge at start-up, and 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 the generator's rating.
The DHY8700SE-LRS suits rural properties running pressure pumps and cold storage, workshops that need to keep working through a blackout, and businesses where the till, fridges and lights must stay on. Paired with an automatic transfer switch it gives unattended changeover; the switch is installed into the switchboard by a licensed electrician.
Standby use only. It is built for standby use and is not rated for prime or continuous duty.
