Cypress, CA. (October 3, 2002) - Over the past few years Yamaha has developed
inverter technology to make generators smaller and lighter. In 2003 the
EF3000iSEB with Yamaha Boost Technology, Smart Throttle and Noise Block
will take inverter generators to the next level. Yamaha's next generation
of portable generators pump out an amazing amount of power from a package
that is incredible quiet, compact and efficient.
The Boost Control Unit in the New EF3000iSEB uses power from the generator's
12 volt battery to produce additional amperage. This additional power
is combined with its normal 3000 watts to boost the total output to that
comparable to a conventional 3500 watt generator.
To reduce engine noise and wear, increase fuel efficiency and engine
life, the EF3000iSEB's engine speed is precisely matched to the load by
Yamaha's Smart Throttle, a load sensing throttle control system. Only
Yamaha generators are equipped with Smart Throttle.
Noise Block, Yamaha's acoustically designed sound reduction system keeps
the noise level down to a 51 to 57 decibels, that's 10 to 25 decibels
quieter than conventional 3500 watt generators, allowing you to work in
the most noise sensitive situations.
When you compare the Yamaha EF3000iSEB to a leading 3500 watt conventional
generator you'll find that the Yamaha is 10 pounds lighter, it's one third
the size and it is equipped with Smart Throttle and Noise Block. You would
expect that these developments and technology would increase the price
dramatically, but they don't. The Yamaha EF3000iSEB is priced just slightly
higher than the leading 3500 watt conventional generator.
