Description
Generac XG04045ANAC 45kW LC Single Phase CARB Standby Generator Overview
The Generac XG04045ANAC is a 45kW LC single-phase automatic standby generator in the CARB version. It runs on natural gas or propane vapor, chosen at the controller, and it is EPA and SCAQMD exhaust emissions certified.
A Power Zone 410 controller, NFPA 110 capable, manages operation, and cellular connectivity supports Mobile Link and Fleet monitoring. The single-phase alternator puts out 120/240V and is paired with a 200 A circuit breaker. Mechanically, it uses an inline 4-cylinder, 4.5 L Generac engine with hydraulic lifters and no turbocharging, running at 1,800 RPM. Coolant is a 50/50 ethylene glycol blend, and an electronic governor works with electronic voltage regulation that holds output within 1 percent. The 12V system has a 5 A battery charger and a 37 A charging alternator; the battery itself, Group 27R at 725 CCA minimum, is not included. At full load the 45kW size is listed at 494 cubic feet per hour of natural gas, and output derates 1 percent for every 100 m above 183 m of altitude. The alternator is a synchronous design with sealed ball bearings, rotor insulation is class F and stator insulation is class H, and the carton includes the generator and an owner’s manual.
