Petrol Inverter Generator 3.2kW 230V Electric Start Portable

A 3.2kW petrol inverter generator built for emergency and home standby use when mains power is unavailable. With 230V output, electric and pull start operation, and portable fold-away handles, it gives you a practical backup power source that is easier to move and set up when needed.

Used for home backup power, this petrol electric generator suits power cuts, temporary supply around the property, and situations where you need portable electricity away from a fixed source. It can be useful for running suitable 230V equipment during outages, supporting general household backup needs, and giving extra flexibility for maintenance tasks or temporary outdoor use where a mains connection is not available. The inverter design also helps keep output suitable for more controlled power delivery, which matters when reliable supply is needed for regular standby use.

Rated AC output is 3200W with a 3500W surge output, running at 230V and 50Hz. A 6L fuel tank gives up to 8 hours running time, while the 4-stroke OHV 192cc engine uses forced air cooling and transistorised ignition. Noise level is listed at 61dB/A at 7m at quarter load, and there is also a rated 12V DC output of 8.3A. Overload protection adds useful reassurance for safe running, while the fold-away handles make storage and carrying more straightforward when the generator is not in use.
