Engine-generator Scheppach SG5200D — diesel, rated 3000 W, 230 V, 16 L tank, black/blue

Scheppach SG5200D is a diesel engine-generator that delivers a rated output of 3000 W at a rated voltage of 230 V. The unit is built with a 16-litre fuel tank to provide extended runtime and a compact footprint (520 mm wide, 920 mm deep) while weighing 148 kg. Designed for backup power, construction sites and remote work, this generator supplies stable AC power for electric tools, appliances and lighting where mains supply is unavailable or unstable.

Advantages

The diesel engine offers fuel efficiency and long service intervals compared with lighter-fuel alternatives. With a rated output of 3000 W the generator supports a variety of power loads simultaneously, while the 230 V output is compatible with standard single-phase equipment. The 16 L tank reduces the need for frequent refuelling during extended operation. Compact footprint and integrated frame simplify placement on site and transport in enclosed spaces; the robust construction is suitable for demanding work environments.

Suitable for

• Temporary power supply on construction sites
• Backup power for small workshops and domestic equipment
• Remote or off-grid work locations
• Powering electric tools, compressors and lighting

How to use

Place the generator on a level, well-ventilated surface clear of flammable materials. Check engine oil and diesel level before starting. Connect loads to the 230 V outlets according to the manufacturer's load limits and start the engine following the supplied start procedure. Monitor engine and load during operation and do not exceed the rated output to avoid overload. Allow the engine to cool before refuelling and perform regular maintenance such as oil changes, air filter checks and battery inspection per the maintenance schedule.

Usage recommendations

For safe and reliable operation, use low-sulphur diesel fuel, adhere to rated load limits and schedule routine maintenance. When using on job sites, place the generator with exhaust directed away from occupied areas and observe local noise and emissions regulations.
