Description
Generac XG04045ANAX 45kW LC Single Phase Standby Generator Overview
The Generac XG04045ANAX is a 45kW LC automatic standby generator with single-phase output. It can burn natural gas or propane vapor, selected through the controller, and its exhaust emissions are EPA and SCAQMD certified.
A Power Zone 410 controller, NFPA 110 capable, handles control duties, and cellular connectivity supports Mobile Link and Fleet. The alternator delivers 120/240V, and a 200 A circuit breaker is part of the single-phase configuration. The engine is an inline 4-cylinder Generac design displacing 4.5 L, with hydraulic lifters, natural aspiration and a 1,800 RPM operating speed. It is liquid cooled with a 50/50 ethylene glycol mix, and voltage is regulated electronically to within 1 percent. The electrical system is 12V with a 5 A charger and a 37 A charging alternator, and a Group 27R battery with at least 725 CCA is recommended but not included. Full-load natural gas consumption is listed at 494 cubic feet per hour for the 45kW size, and the rated ambient limit is 50 degrees C (122 degrees F). 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.
