- RD02025: Generac 20kW Automatic Standby Diesel Generator
- RD03022: Generac 30kW Automatic Standby Diesel Generator
- RD04834: Generac 48kW Automatic Standby Diesel Generator; Single Phase Alternator
A Single-Phase Alternator is a single and continuously alternating voltage produced by the generator. The RD04834 has a single voltage of 120/240V both for surge capacity and output voltage. The stator (armature) windings are connected in series.
- RD05034: Generac 50kW Automatic Standby Diesel Generator; Three Phase Alternator
The 50kW has 3-single phases: 120/208V, 120/240V, and 277/480V output voltage and surge capacity. The three-phase alternator has three single-phase windings spaced such that the voltage induced in any one phase is transferred by the other two in a 120-degree displacement.
The Extended Tank Option expands the generator’s fuel capacity and extends a full load runtime for more than two days.
