REDI-LINE generator Features

  • Advanced demand start circuit detects sensitive loads and extends battery run times. Draws battery power only when power is required when you trigger a power tool or switch on an appliance
  • Delivers peak output currents up to 1.5 times the continuous current rating for extra starting power
  • Built-in circuit breaker provides overload protection for generator
  • Withstands ambient temperatures from -30 Deg. F to 130 Deg. F
  • Sealed bearings never need lubricating
  • REDI-LINE 120 VAC power output has a true sine wave, the output voltage and fequency vary with the load and are unregulated
  • REDI-LINE is not position sensitive; mount the generator in any position, even upside down, as long as there is sufficient air circulation for cooling. The REDI-LINE generator is non-polluting and with no refueling or maintenance requirements, it can be put just about anywhere
  • CSA Certified, 120 VAC models; CE and TUV Rhineland Certified, 230 VAC models

REDI-LINE generators operate from vehicle batteries and convert DC power to AC to run power tools, appliances and electrical equipment where commercial AC power is not conveniently available.

Rugged and Reliable. Encased in rugged, steel enclosures, and constructed for long life with minimum maintenance, REDI-LINE is backed by a two year warranty.

Advantages over other power conversion methods. REDI-LINE products are compact and whisper quiet, and, unlike and gasoline engine driven generators, produce no dangerous fumes or exhaust. Additionally, REDI-LINE can be mounted in any position - even up-side-down.

Advanced Demand Start Circuit. REDI-LINE features an advanced demand start circuit that is sensitive enough to activate the generator even with variable speed power tools.

Use the following formula to estimate how long a fully charged deep cycle battery will keep the REDI-LINE continuously operating before the battery will need recharging:

 

Hours =

 

Cold Cranking Amps (CCA)

180 x AC Load Amps (current)

 

Amps =

 

 Watts

Volts

Cold Cranking Amps (a readily available rating for all batteries) is equal to the total of each battery used. AC load amperes is the AC current listed on the nameplate of the tool or appliance.

For example, a single battery with a CCA rating of 675 is used to operate the 1600 watt generator. An AC load of 4 amps is operated by the generator. Continuous run time is:

Hours =

 

675

 

= .93

 

180 x 4

It is important to match REDI-LINE and AC motor loads correctly since AC motor starting currents can be 1.5 to 5 times their rated current. Note this does not apply to universal motors which are widely used in power tools.

Check the motor nameplate for motor type and horsepower, then refer to the table below for starting current requirements. See Specifications table. The REDI-LINE Surge Output Current capability varies with each model. The AC motor starting current should not exceed the Surge Output Current specified.
