Champion Power Equipment CPG3500E2-DF 2800 Watt LPG Dual Fuel Generator With Electric Start

The Champion Power Equipment CPG3500E2-DF DF Dual Fuel, Petrol or LPG, portable generator, is powered by a Euro 5 182cc Champion single cylinder, 4-stroke OHV engine that produces 2500 running watts; 2800 max watts on petrol and 2600 max watts; 2300 running watts on LPG. With a 15-litre fuel tank this unit can run up to 10 hours at 50% load running on petrol or running off propane 23hrs based on 19kg bottle (0.84kg/hr based on 50% Load). Our OHV engine is equipped with a low oil shut-off sensor and designed for long life and easy maintenance. This unit is ideal for RV’s, camping trips, hunting, travelling, picnics, jobs around the house, or home back-up power during emergencies. Patented volt guard system installed to protect spikes and surges on appliances; equipment also included patented Cold Start technology.

The benefits of LPG: The biggest attraction of LPG is the lower running costs (bottled gas is about 30% - 50% cheaper to run currently than petrol, the larger the cylinder the cheaper the gas becomes). As fuel becomes more expensive this becomes an even more attractive offer. You have greater flexibility with regards to extending the running time, just use a bigger cylinder if you need a longer running time; you are no longer limited by the internal fuel tank. Cleaner emissions allows for use in situations where petrol is not appropriate such as around food or on those sites that do not allow petrol for fire risk precautions. There are also no petrol storage problems, eg. Smells. Minimal risk of fuel spillage, as the fuel is not fluid, also there is less chance of the fuel source being stolen. Lower maintenance costs due to the cleaner running; petrol decays over time and can block the carburettor or hinder its operation. LPG does not have this problem as the LPG is sealed there is no chance of degradation. This leads to extended life of the spark plug and generator components. A lot easier to refuel just connect a new bottle.
