Petrol-Electric Generators
All petrol-electric generators can produce voltage peaks that may damage electronic
devices. Pro-8a is however designed to comply with sufficient power rated petrol-electric
generators supplying AC-power equal to the voltage and frequency specified and without
use of ProGas.
One dedicated 6000 Watt petrol-electric generator is required to power supply one Pro-8a
at MAX speed.
To supply one Pro-8a generator at 50% recharge speed setting requires one dedicated
3000W petrol-electric generator.
To supply one Pro-8a generator at 25% recharge speed setting requires one dedicated
2000W petrol-electric generator which is the smallest recommended for use with Pro-8a.
To supply two Pro-8a generators at 50% recharge speed setting requires one 6000W
petrol-electric generator etc.
WARNING
Only use Pro-8a on the same petrol-electric generator, use of any other flash model simultaneously will cause
high voltage and may damage the Pro-8a. Pro-8a itself does not cause gas generators to produce high voltages.
Underrated power of a petrol-electric generator will cause various bad results.
