Tips: Ambient Temperature for Generator -15℃-40℃ in the gasoline mode, and -5℃-40℃ in the LPG mode. The generators can operate under standard atmospheric conditions ("standard atmospheric conditions"- ambient temperate of 25℃ - atmospheric pressure of 100 kPa - relative humidity of 30%). When the temperature, humidity, and height surpass standard atmospheric conditions, the output of the generator will decrease Using under high temperature for an extended period of time will affect the life cycle of the generator and its built-in battery. Also, the output must be lowered when it is used in small spaces, since it will affect the cooling of the generator.
For fuel selection, the generator will use LPG when the LPG hose is connected and gasoline when the hose is not connected.
The generator can be started using any of the four methods below:
gasoline
To turn the engine off in an emergency, turn the engine switch to the "OFF" position. In any other circumstances, please follow the below steps.
LPG
Switch off all electrical equipment before inserting plugs.
Make sure that all electrical equipment including wires and plugs are in good condition before being connected to the generator, and confirm that all loads carried by the generator are within the rated load range and that the load current is within the rated current range.
Tips: Make sure that the generator is grounded. If any electrical equipment needs to be grounded, the generator must also be grounded.
Tips: When it is automatically started, the generator AC output switch is off by default. When the AC is on, the generator will not be available once the DC is finished. The upper and lower power limits can be set in the app of the portable power station being connected. When charging DELTA Max, DELTA Pro, or Power Kits, it is recommended that the upper power limit be set to 80% in order to increase fuel efficiency. Turn on the AC output switch for simultaneous AC output when the DC output is already on. The total power of AC+DC is 1,800W (gasoline)/1,600 W (LPG), with AC output prioritized.
*When connected the DELTA Pro for charging, you will need to purchase the DELTA Pro to Smart Generator Adapter from the e-commerce store for connecting the generator to DELTA Pro or Power Kits.
* When connected the DELTA Pro Extra Battery for charging, you will need to purchase the DELTA Pro to Smart Generator Adapter from the e-commerce store for connecting the generator to the DELTA Pro Extra Battery.
