Chicago Pneumatic adds new CPPG inverters for AC power below 3kW

Chicago Pneumatic has added four CPPG inverter models for contractors needing a clean and reliable source of AC power below 3kW. The models – on show at CONEXPO-CON/AGG - have a recoil starter for fast powering up and, thanks to noise dampening canopies, are near-silent, according to the company. Operating noise levels are as low as 65dB or 63dB.

CPPG inverters, a clean source of onsite AC power

6097 Chicago Pneumatic has added four CPPG inverter models for contractors needing a clean and reliable source of AC power below 3kW.

The models – on show at CONEXPO-CON/AGG - have a recoil starter for fast powering up and, thanks to noise dampening canopies, are near-silent, according to the company. Operating noise levels are as low as 65dB or 63dB. Rugged design and thermal protective features mean they are made for tough construction site environments and harsh weather. They are available with petrol engines and either four- or 10-litre fuel tanks.

CPPG inverter generators are available in 50Hz and 60Hz variants, with the CPPG 2i / CPPG 2iW and CPPG 3.5 / CPPG 3.5iW providing nominal power outputs of 1.6kVA and 3kVA respectively.

All CPPG generators have a strong main frame featuring extra reinforcement around sensitive components and a protected electrical panel. Sockets are also covered and recessed for enhanced protection. Additional features include user-friendly control panels and the option of an hour counter to help monitor maintenance schedules.

A simple handle design allows the generators to be easily lifted and transported on wheels.

Other models in the range include the CPPG Professional generators with either petrol or diesel engines for all-day operation. Users are protected by an optional Earth Leakage Relay in both types of engine, while Automatic Voltage Regulation is an option for models including petrol-engines to ensure consistent electrical output.
