Cycloinverter Generators  Until today, generators havebeen heavy and difficult to transport, noisy and generally unpleasant to use. But not anymore. The arrival of the EU Series of generators has revolutionised the choices for consumers seeking energy self sufficiency. Being small, portable and very quiet, provideing clean and durable power, just what you would expect from a Honda. With a range from 1000 to 3000 watts the EU Series are the perfect power source for people on the move, or for those people left stranded without electricity. What is a CycloInverter? The Honda "EU" Inverter Series produces multi-phase, high voltage AC (alternating current) and then changes it to DC (direct current) electronically. This DC voltage is then processed (inverted) into ultra-clean, stable 240 Volt 50Hz AC power. The cutting edge micro-electronics in Honda's Inverter generators delivers the highest quality, ultra-clean power for even the most sensitive equipment. Inverter circuitry minimizes spikes and fluctuations in the power source for safe operation of the latest electronic equipment from personal computers to the most sophisticated scientific devices. And because these abilities are packed into micro-circuitry, Honda's Inverter series generators are lightweight and compact. INVERTER GENERATORS "FEATURES" The Future of Portable Power! Eco-Throttle for Superior Fuel Economy The EU Series generators feature a load-dependant "Eco-Throttle" that automatically maintains engine speed and power output at the most efficient level under all usage loads (particularly ideal for equipment requiring a powerful initial startup burst), realizing the economy of lower fuel consumption and the convenience of longer continuous operation. Parallel Operation Two EU Series generators may be operated in parallel via a parallel connection cable to double the power output. (eg: 2 x EU10i units in parallel = 2000 watts output.) High Quality, Consistent Power The EU Series generators produce high quality stable power superior to commercial 240 volt mains, with sine wave distortion so low they may power even the most sensenstive electronic equipment. Power fluorescent lights with a standard generator and you'll notice a considerable amount of flicker caused by an unstable electricity supply. In comparison, tha EU Series Generators deliver electricity so stable it may even be used to power computer, communications and measurement equipment. Super Quiet Operation EU Series generators are designed to operate so quietly in the normal usage range that they clear even the most strict noise regulations. This makes them excellent for use in densely populated urban areas, at night, construction sites, or as a backup home power source. Stable Sine Wave Inverter The stable electricity output offered by the EU Series is realized through an advanced Inverter Electronic Control Unit, with sine wave distortion so low they may power even the most sensenstive electronic equipment. Special High Speed Multi-Pole Alternator At the heart of the EU Series' extreme size and weight reduction is a unique new Honda generation system featuring a special high-speed multi-pole alternator integrated into the engine itself. Honda disposed of the bulky flywheel usually attached to the engine and replaced it with this unique alternator, effectively reducing the weight of the generation system by 1/3 and the overall size and weight of the generator by 1/2.
