¡ INNOVATIVE DESIGN & PROTOTYPE TESTING are key components of
GENERAC’S success in “IMPROVING POWER BY DESIGN.” But it
doesn’t stop there. Total commitment to component testing, reliability
testing, environmental testing, destruction and life testing, plus testing
to applicable CSA, NEMA, EGSA, and other standards, allows you to
choose GENERAC POWER SYSTEMS with the confidence that these
systems will provide superior performance.
¡
COREPOWER™: Offers an extreme value for those who desire automatic
backup power at the most affordable price.
¡ TEST CRITERIA:
PROTOTYPE TESTED NEMA MG1-22 EVALUATION
SYSTEM TORSIONAL TESTED MOTOR STARTING ABILITY
¡ SOLID-STATE, FREQUENCY COMPENSATED VOLTAGE REGULATION.
This state-of-the-art power maximizing regulation system is standard on
all Generac models. It provides optimized FAST RESPONSE to changing
load conditions and MAXIMUM MOTOR STARTING CAPABILITY by
electronically torque-matching the surge loads to the engine.
¡ SINGLE SOURCE SERVICE RESPONSE from Generac’s dealer network
provides parts and service know-how for the entire unit, from the engine
to the smallest electronic component.
¡ GENERAC TRANSFER SWITCHES. Long life and reliability are
synonymous with GENERAC POWER SYSTEMS. One reason for this
confidence is that the GENERAC product line includes its own transfer
systems and controls for total system compatibility.

CorePower™ System - 7 kW features and benefits
Engine
•Generac OHV engine A durable, reliable powertrain for maximum power output.
•Cast iron cylinder walls Rigid construction and added durability provide long engine life.
•Electronic ignition/spark advance These features combine to assure smooth, quick starting every time.
•Pressurized filtration system Better performance, less maintenance and significantly longer engine life.
•Low oil pressure shutdown system Superior shutdown protection prevents catastrophic engine damage due to low oil.
•High temperature shutdown Prevents damage due to overheating.
•Spin-on automotive type oil filter Captures and collects harmful impurities with easy serviceability.
Generator
•Revolving field
Allows for a smaller, light weight unit that operates 25% more efficiently than a revolving armature generator.
•Displaced phase excitation
Maximizes motor starting capability.
•Automatic voltage regulation Regulates the output voltage to ±5% prevents damaging voltage spikes.
•UL 2200 Listed For your safety.
Transfer Switch
•Fully Automatic Transfers your vital electrical loads to the energized source of power.

Rating definitions - Standby: Applicable for supplying emergency power for the duration of the utility power outage. No overload capability is available for this rating. (All ratings in accordance with BS5514,
ISO3046 and DIN6271). * Maximum wattage and current are subject to and limited by such factors as fuel Btu content, ambient temperature, altitude, engine power and condition, etc. Maximum power
decreases about 3.5 percent for each 1,000 feet above sea level; and also will decrease about 1 percent for each 6° C (10° F) above 16° C (60°F). Sound output ratings from certain points on the generator
subject to change based on installation parameters.
