Westinghouse 12000 Watt Portable Generator WGen12000c with Automatic CO Shutoff

12000 Watts 15000 Starting Watts Remote Start Carbon Monoxide Shutdown Sensor

The powerful Westinghouse WGen12000c portable generator produces 12000 watts and 15000 peak watts. It features remote start with a fob or pushbutton start on the control panel. Automatic Carbon Monoxide Detection and Shutoff provides additional safety. Ideal for home backup or power in remote places. The WGen12000c is transfer switch ready for home backup. Clean Power with less than 5% THD powers all your appliances, electronics, and tools with enough power for pumps and air conditioners.

Safety and convenience with automatic low oil and carbon monoxide detection and shutdown, automatic voltage regulation (AVR), and overload protection. Equipped with a 713cc 4-stroke OHV V-Twin Westinghouse engine fitted with cast iron cylinder sleeves.

Runs for up to 11 hours on a single 10.5 gallon tank of gasoline. A Low Idle switch slows the engine to idle under no-load conditions to save fuel and reduce noise.

CO Detection and Shutdown

The WGen12000c generator is intended for outdoor use only, positioned away from homes and other buildings, with the exhaust pointed away from any persons or buildings.

Carbon Monoxide (CO) is an odorless, invisible gas produced by internal combustion engines and any device that burns a fuel to produce heat or energy. This generator is equipped with a carbon monoxide sensor that shuts the generator down when it detects rising CO levels above a preset threshold. The CO Sensor and Shutdown feature adds an additional measure of safety to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning caused by misuse.

The Westinghouse WGen12000c Owner Manual specifically states that the generator may NOT run indoors

20-Amp Pushbutton Breakers protect the 120-Volt GFCI outlets, one for each pair, while the 30-Amp 120-Volt has its own 30-Amp pushbutton Breaker. A 30-Amp double pole circuit breaker protects the L14-30R 120/240-Volt outlet and the generator from overloads. The main circuit breaker protects the 50-Amp outlet and the generator from overloads.

The VFT Meter displays Volts, Frequency, and Lifetime Hours. Also located on the control panel is the one-touch push button start and Engine On/Off Switch. The ST outlet allows a Westinghouse ST Switch (sold separately) to automatically switch its outlet to generator power during a power outage.
