• Professionals who want to be able to deliver results, even during a power failure

The subsequent sections will explore in detail its power characteristics, the diverse outlets it provides, its overall portability, and the supplementary features it offers.

Power & Run Time

With its dual-fuel technology, the Cummins Onan P9500DF EFI delivers 120/240V, and offers power and flexibility. Running on gasoline, it boasts a running wattage of 7,500W and a peak wattage of 9,500W. When powered by propane, it delivers 6,750 running watts and 8,550 peak watts.

Enjoying a noise rating of 74 dBA (just slightly more noisy than a vacuum cleaner), this generator offers the versatility of starting with either a classic hand-operated recoil starting mechanism or a convenient and easy-to-use electric starter (battery included). For added user convenience, the Onan P9500DF EFI is equipped with remote starting capabilities (key fob included).

The Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) system enhances the engine's reliability, lowers fuel consumption, improves startup, reduces servicing, boosts stale fuel resistance, and offers better altitude adaptability.

Concerning its running time, the Onan P9500DF EFI, featuring a 6.6 gallons fuel tank, can continuously run for up to 14.4 hours with a full gasoline tank (consuming fuel at approximately 0.46 gallons per hour). Alternatively, when utilizing propane, it offers up to 10.8 hours (on a 20 lbs tank - propane consumption around 0.44 GPH) of runtime.

Due to the high THD (<23%) of the Onan P9500DF EFI, it is advised against using it for powering sensitive electronic devices.

Outlets

The control panel features the following 5 AC outlets:

Additionally, it features 2 DC outlets: there's two 5V USB ports (USB-A) with which you may charge electronics, for example mobile phones or tablets, conveniently.

With its twist-lock L14-30R receptacle, the Onan P9500DF EFI is designed to be transfer switch ready, allowing easy connection to your breaker box for powering your home during a blackout.

Portability

With dimensions of L27.3 x W20.6 x H22.6 in, the standard open frame design of the Cummins Onan P9500DF EFI provides stability and easy maintenance access to components, as well as good air circulation. The featured design is ideal for the outdoors and all tough environments.

Despite its 211.6 lbs, the generator falls under the category of 'portable,' signifying its movability, although its weight may hinder easy portability. Nevertheless, the restricted maneuverability is counteracted by its wheel kit (⌀10") and its folding handle, enabling easy shifting once the generator is set in place.

Features

To facilitate status and activity monitoring, a convenient meter, displaying voltage, frequency, and lifetime hours information are embedded in the control panel of the Onan P9500DF EFI.

Benefiting from its built-in fuel gauge, the generator allows for easy and immediate gas level inspections.

From a security standpoint, the product offers an automatic low oil shut-off and an overload protection (circuit breaker), allowing you to use it with a peace of mind.

It also includes a carbon monoxide sensor. This sensor is designed to monitor the level of carbon monoxide present during the generator's operation. If the generator is positioned incorrectly and carbon monoxide levels rise to an unsafe level, the generator will automatically shut down.

Apart from the typical documentation and an owner's manual, which lets you start it right away, the Cummins Onan P9500DF EFI also is packed along with the following accessories: propane hose, funnel, oil, key fob and tool kit.
