Honda Overhead Valve Engine Honda's easy-starting, reliable, OHV horizontal shaft, GXH, mini 4-stroke engine meets EPA and CARB emission standards.
Lightweight and Compact Honda’s unique inverter technology also dramatically reduces the size and weight of the generator. This reduction is possible thanks to the fact that Honda EU-type generators have the alternator built into the engine itself, eliminating the need for a bulky (and heavy) independent alternator.
High Quality, Stable and High Power Output
Quiet Operation Honda's original two-tiered noise dampening system and Eco-Throttle™ ensure quiet operation. Honda's EU Series generators operate at 49 to 59 dBA. This makes them ideal for camping, supplemental RV power and any other activity that requires quiet operation.
Low Fuel Consumption
The high-efficiency inverter and Eco-Throttle™ automatically control engine speed to suit the power requirements of the appliances in use realizing the economy of low fuel consumption. These generators consume 20 to 40 percent less fuel than conventual generators that must continuously operate at 3600 RPMs to produce 60 cycle 120 volt power.
Parallel Operation Capability Two like EU series generators can be linked in parallel to increase available wattage through the generator outlets.
Oil Alert® All Honda generator engines are equipped with a safety system that shuts the engine down if oil reaches an unsafe operating level. This helps prevent engine damage from overheating due to lack of oil.
Electronic Ignition
Simultaneous AC / DC use
Electronic Circuit Breakers
Inverter (computer friendly)
One Switch for Engine / Fuel Valve On / Off
USDA-Qualified Spark Arrestor / Muffler All Honda generators are equipped with United States Department of Agriculture qualified spark arrestors to help prevent fires.
Fully Enclosed for Quieter Operation
Eco-Throttle™ (load dependent operation) This system incorporates a load-dependent speed control-type governor that offers excellent fuel economy by automatically adjusting engine speed to the optimum level, given the usage load. This not only reduces fuel consumption and operating noise in the normal usage range, but it also keeps exhaust emissions to levels that clear even the strictest CARB and EPA emission standards.
