Safety Information

Owner’s Manual for PWRgenerator Air-Cooled Generators 1

Section 1: Safety Information

Introduction

Thank you for purchasing this compact, high perfor-

mance, air-cooled, engine-driven generator. It is

designed to automatically supply direct current (DC) elec-

trical power to the Generac PWRcell Clean Energy Sys-

tem for the purpose of charging storage batteries during

utility outages or periods of low solar output.

This unit is factory installed in an all-weather, metal

enclosure intended exclusively for outdoor installation.

This generator will operate using either vapor withdrawn

liquid propane (LP) or natural gas (NG).

NOTE: This unit is specifically designed as a backup

power source and to communicate with the PWRcell

inverter. Generator will charge PWRcell batteries when

solar cells through PVlink™ and utility power are not suf-

ficient to maintain minimum battery state of charge.

NOTE: California Residents: This unit may only be uti-

lized as an emergency backup power source, used only

when grid power is unavailable.

The information in this manual is accurate based on

products produced at the time of publication. The manu-

facturer reserves the right to make technical updates,

corrections, and product revisions at any time without

notice.
