YAMAHA GENERATOR 12000 WATTS

/// PREMIUM GENERATORS - AFFORDABLE POWER ANYTIME. ANY PLACE!

If you’re going to be powering lights, a space heater or use simple power tools and cost is a factor, then a yamaha premium generator is what you’re looking for.

The EF12000DE is Yamaha's largest gasoline-powered 120/240V genny. It delivers over 10 hours of the huge power required to run high-load equipment such as air compressors and table saws. It's also feature-packed and low-maintenance.

/// Because with a Generator, size matters
When purchasing a generator, it’s important that you select one that’s capable of meeting your energy requirements. You must match the generator’s rated output to
the maximum anticipated power to be used. This section will assist you in estimating your power requirements.

/// Did you know?

Generator’s Maximum AC Output

The maximum output of a Yamaha generator in wattage is represented by the model name of the generator. For example, our EF1000iS outputs a maximum of 1,000
watts. The generator can operate at its maximum output for approximately 20 to 30 minutes.

Generator’s Rated AC Output

The rated, or running, output of a generator is the amount of current it can supply during continuous long-term operation. The rated output of a Yamaha generator is approximately 10% less than its maximum output. For example, our EF1000iS has a rated output of 900 watts.

Generator’s Surge Output

The starting requirements of devices utilizing electric motors, for example an air compressor, a sump pump, etc., may be significantly higher than the actual wattage required during continuous operation. This must be considered when estimating your power needs.

Most small universal motors such as drills, small saws, blenders, etc., require some additional current during start-up. In most cases, Yamaha generators will allow for a shortperiod of  “over generation” power (less than 3 seconds) to help with the initial start-up.

/// Determining Your Energy Needs
If you are unaware of the power requirements of the devices you will be using with your Yamaha Generator, refer to the Application Chart on the opposite page. This guide will help you find the approximate amount of power you may need. For accurate power requirements, also check the appliances with a load tester or contact
the appliance manufacturer.

/// Take it step-by-step
Follow these steps when determining your energy needs:

1. Identify the wattage requirements for what you want to power. The power requirement for the tool or appliance can be found on its identification plate or in its Owner’s Manual. If the power requirement is given in amps, multiply the amps by volts to derive the required watts. Amps x Volts = Watts

2. A dd up the required watts of all the tools and appliances you expect to operate simultaneously. Manufacturer’s devices may use more or less than the
listed wattage. Add a 10% correction factor to your total to help overcome this uncertainty.

3. T he total watts derived in step 2 is the size of Yamaha generator you need. For example, if you only intend to use a coffeemaker, a toaster and a 100-watt light bulb simultaneously, as shown in Sample Chart beside, the combined maximum power requirement would be 2,050 watts plus 10%. A generator that can produce a continuous rated output of 2,255 watts would be the EF2600 or EF2800i.
