In order to choose and buy a generator in the online store correctly, you need to understand the types of this equipment, decide on the most important technical characteristic - power, and also understand which additional features are really useful, and which are just a common marketing ploy.
p>A power generator is a device capable of supplying electricity not only to apartments, private houses and other residential facilities, but also to large production shops, supermarkets or hospitals. In a country where the power system is damaged, the purchase of an electricity generator is vital.
Types of generators by type of fuel and their features
The drive engine of any electric generator turns liquid or gaseous fuel into mechanical energy, which rotates the rotor of the generator itself - an electric motor operating in generator mode.
The fuel can be:
gasoline ;
diesel fuel (solar oil);
gas (natural or propane).
Gasoline generators are most often used in everyday life due to low noise during operation, ease of maintenance, low price, and ease of starting when ambient temperature below 0 degrees. At the same time, their performance, motor resource and duration of continuous operation are lower than those of diesel models. Diesel generators can work for days and supply electricity to powerful consumers, but the cost of such equipment is appropriate. Gas generators have very good performance characteristics, but at the same time it is rather problematic to connect them to the natural gas main, and the propane tank takes up a lot of space.
Important technical characteristics
When choosing and buying a generator , you will have to decide first of all on the power of this device. It is calculated based on the total power consumption of all electrical appliances simultaneously connected to the output of the generator. Keep in mind that some equipment, such as a refrigerator, an air conditioner and any machine equipped with an electric drive, will consume 5 or even 7 times the nominal energy during the start of the motor. Therefore, when calculating, be sure to take this fact into account.
The total power of all electrical appliances should be at least 30% lower than the power of the electric generator, and it does not matter what type of fuel it runs on.
Other important characteristics worth paying attention to include:
fuel tank capacity;
fuel consumption;
dimensions;
weight;
type of cooling, it can be either air or liquid;
type of trigger (manual or electric);
output voltage value (220 or 380 C) and its type is single-phase or three-phase.
Additional functions
Among the most useful and really necessary additional functions, users who operate the generator do not one year, highlighted:
welding mode that turns the installation y into a full-fledged welding machine;
AVR function that can maintain the output voltage at the same level, regardless of the speed drawdown;
electric start with a starter;
motor protection against overheating.
Where to order and buy a reliable generator at a low price?
Due to the difficult situation with the energy system of Ukraine, this product is in demand, especially Hyundai generators, as one of the most reliable and inexpensive not only in terms of price, but also in the maintenance of units.
You can buy a Hyundai generator or another company you like on the official website of the "Instrument Center" company. Here, not only the lowest prices in Ukraine, but also a large own service center, favorable warranty conditions and the ability to order a generator at the address or at the Novaya Poshta branch. If you have questions and you want to buy an electric generator, you can do this by dialing one of these phone numbers (097) 976-00-66 and (093) 976-00-66.
