Hyundai DHY8000SELR Diesel Generator Long Run Reviews

4.8 Rating 35 Reviews
Read Generators Direct Reviews

The DHY8000SELR is the long running version of the DHY8000SE, with a large 25L fuel tank which boosts the maximum running time of this standby diesel generator up to 25 hours.

Powered by a 4-stroke, air-cooled D452 Hyundai 3000rpm diesel engine, the DHY8000SELR has a maximum output of 5.8kW. It features the same AVR alternator which produces clean energy. Although it won’t be able to run everything it allows more essential home items to continue running in the event of a power cut when the National Grid fails.

The DHY8000SELR is ATS (Automatic Transfer Switch) compatible and can be connected to an ATS system for maximum convenience. When the ATS module detects a loss of power from the mains supply it simply powers your generator up automatically, then shuts it off when it detects power returning from the mains. This is also an electric start diesel generator, with a simple turn of the key being all that’s required to start or stop the machine when controlled manually.

The DHY8000SELR is part of the Hyundai silent range so is a quiet generator and comes with a sound attenuated canopy to reduce overall noise levels making it suitable for domestic or low noise areas. The DHY8000SELR is also economical to run, using roughly 1L of diesel every hour.

For information on how to properly maintain this diesel generator, please consult the user manual.

Covered by a Hyundai 1 year standard warranty. Terms and Conditions apply.

Designed for standby use. For continuous power supply, we recommend a 1500rpm diesel generator.

Please Note: Dual voltage generators may only give approximately 50-60% of the rated output on 115V. Outputs are limited by the size of the sockets, based on the Voltage and Current (Power = Volts x Amps).

Equipped with a 25L fuel tank for an increased running time of up to 25 hours.

It’s a lovely looking bit of kit. Starts on the button and provides all the clean electricity my house needs. It has one fault though: the fuel gauge reads zero when there is still 40% of the fuel left. This means you either ignore the fuel gage so that you can avail of its long run capability or you refill the tank when there is 2 gallons of fuel left but staying safe.

Speedy Delivery from Generators Direct. Needed oil filling as delivered with minimum in sump but, only to be expected. More than enough power to run the property in an emergancy. Great service.

The generator was delivered swiftly and in excellent packaging. It is EXTREMELY heavy and it should be noted you really need a pallet truck to move it within the package. It’s excellent at its job, but, how this can be described as “quiet” is a mystery. It is very, very noisy and that is a huge let down to me.

Haven’t used it yet in a power cut but it switches on seamlessly with ATS.
