It is not always possible to “charge” the power supply to the main power grid. In many cases, it is more convenient and even more efficient to use autonomous sources. Therefore, you definitely need to know everything about Hitachi generators.

Peculiarities

Describing the main properties of the Hitachi generator, it must be emphasized that they are reliable and solid... These products confidently "keep the bar" once set by Japanese technology. The brand's lineup is large enough to delight any consumer. Hitachi designers are committed to improving the durability and reliability of their systems. Of course, this technique meets the strictest safety standards.

The Hitachi product range includes both household and professional generators... This separation is not reflected in the build quality. But at the same time, models for the home are economical, and those intended for professional use have advanced features.

It is important to understand, however, that professional modifications also consume a little fuel per unit of power. And it is also worth considering that the Japanese design reliably blocks noise, introducing it into an acceptable range.

Model overview

It is appropriate to start a review of Hitachi generators with E100... It is a modern, professional-grade device with a rated power of 8.5 kW. The capacity of the fuel tank reaches 44 liters, so long-term operation is possible. Other technical characteristics:

  • the volume of the combustion chamber is 653 cubic meters. cm;

  • recommended fuel AI-92;

  • sound volume during operation no more than 71 dB;

  • level of electrical protection IP23;

  • starting with both manual and electric starter;

  • net weight 149 kg.

Alternatively, you can consider E24MC. This generator is equipped with a Mitsubishi air cooled drive motor. The period of continuous operation with a fully filled tank is over 9 hours. To operate the generator, AI-92 gasoline is used (only without lead additives). Other information:

  • total weight 41 kg;

  • rated voltage 230 V;

  • power no more than 2.4 kW;

  • normal power (not at peak) 2.1 kW;

  • sound volume 95 dB;

  • launch with a special cord;

  • used oil - not worse than SD class;

  • dimensions 0.553x0405x0.467 m.

The Hitachi product range also includes an inverter gasoline generator. Model E10U has an active power of only 0.88 kW. The device generates a simple household current with a voltage of 220 V. It is intended only for backup power supply and has a mass of 20 kg. The tank has a capacity of 3.8 liters.

When it comes to 5 kW generators, the E50 (3P) is just that. This is an excellent professional grade three-phase apparatus.

The designers have provided an indicator (special light) and a residual current device. The tank capacity is large enough for stable and successful operation. It is also worth noting the presence of an internal voltmeter.

Important technical features:

  • start only in manual mode;

  • net weight 69 kg;

  • current with voltage of 400 or 220 V;

  • output current 18.3 A;

  • active power 4 kW;

  • operating time with a filled tank - 8 hours.

How to choose?

Despite all the advantages of Hitachi gasoline generators, you will have to choose one specific model. For domestic purposes, of course, it is advisable to use three-phase modifications.... But for industrial needs, everything is not so simple. Both single-phase and three-phase consumers can be found there. In the end, all the same, the choice rests on the characteristics of the devices that will have to be supplied with current.

Important: wherever you can get by with a simple single-phase generator, it should be preferred.Not every electrician can correctly connect devices with 3 phases.

No less significant feature - synchronous or asynchronous execution.

The second option is less stable, which means that it is less suitable for long-term operation, especially when powering highly sensitive devices. But asynchronous generators better resist short-circuit currents, so there is no clear leader here.

Moreover, asynchronous device more resistant to dust and dirt. It can be used even outdoors without fear of negative consequences. The widespread belief that only synchronous generators are suitable for welding is incorrect. The use of modern brushless instruments (which is exactly the Hitachi technique) blurs the difference between the two types. The power of the generator is selected individually, while an additional 30% reserve is left in excess of the total power to compensate for inrush currents.
