SAFETY INFORMATION

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

DANGER

„DO NOT touch output terminals during operation. Contact with output terminals during operation can cause electrocution, electrical shock or burn.

„The electrical voltage required to operate the generator can cause severe

injury or even death through physical contact with live circuits. Turn generator and all circuit breakers OFF before performing maintenance on the generator or making contact with output terminals.

„NEVER insert any objects into the output

receptacles during operation. This is extremely dangerous.The possibility exists of electrical shock, electrocution or death.

„Backfeed to a utility system can cause

electrocution and/or property damage. NEVER connect the generator to a building’s electrical system without a transfer switch or other approved

device. All installations should be

performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with all applicable laws and electrical codes. Failure to do so could result in electrical shock or burn, causing serious injury or even death.

„Make sure power cables are securely connected to the generator’s output receptacles. Incorrect connections may cause electrical shock and damage to the generator.

NOTICE

„ALWAYS make certain that proper power or extension cord has been selected for the job. See Cable Selection Chart in this manual.

Grounding Safety

DANGER

„ALWAYS make sure that electrical circuits are properly grounded to a suitable earth ground (ground rod) per the National Electrical Code (NEC) and local codes before operating generator. Severe injury or death by electrocution can result from operating an ungrounded generator.

„NEVER use gas piping as an electrical ground.

Power Cord/Cable Safety

DANGER

„NEVER let power cords or cables lay in water.

„NEVER stand in water while AC power from the generator is being transferred to a load.

„NEVER use damaged or worn cables or cords when connecting equipment to generator. Inspect for cuts in the insulation.

„ NEVER grab or touch a live power cord or cable with wet hands. The possibility exists of electrical shock, electrocution or death.

DCA25USI2XF, DCA25USIXF specifications

Multiquip is a renowned name in the construction and industrial equipment sector, known for delivering high-performance generators that cater to various power needs. Two standout models in their lineup are the DCA25USIXF and DCA25USI2XF, both designed for reliability, efficiency, and versatility.

The Multiquip DCA25USIXF is a compact, industrial-grade diesel generator that delivers a powerful 25 kVA, making it ideal for construction sites, outdoor events, and emergency backup applications. This model is powered by a robust Yanmar diesel engine, which ensures high fuel efficiency and low emissions, adhering to stringent environmental standards. The DCA25USIXF features an advanced digital control panel, providing users with an intuitive interface for monitoring performance, voltage output, and operational status. Its sound-attenuated enclosure significantly reduces noise levels, making it suitable for use in noise-sensitive areas.

On the other hand, the DCA25USI2XF model takes power generation a step further by offering dual voltage capabilities, allowing users to switch between 120V and 240V outputs. This flexibility makes it highly versatile, catering to a broader range of tools and equipment. Like the DCA25USIXF, the DCA25USI2XF is also equipped with Yanmar’s reliable diesel engine, which contributes to its durability and long service life. Both models come with a heavy-duty frame to withstand tough conditions, ensuring durability on job sites.

The technology implemented in these generators includes automatic voltage regulation (AVR), which stabilizes voltage output, protecting sensitive equipment from power surges. Additionally, the generators feature a low oil shutdown system, which prevents engine damage by automatically shutting down the generator when oil levels are low. This protective measure not only enhances the longevity of the generator but also contributes to safer operation.

In terms of portability, both models are equipped with rugged wheels and a lifting eye, facilitating easy transportation to various job sites. With their combination of power, efficiency, and advanced features, the Multiquip DCA25USIXF and DCA25USI2XF generators are excellent choices for professionals seeking reliable power solutions in demanding environments. Whether for construction, events, or standby power, these generators deliver exceptional performance tailored to meet diverse needs.
