Excel Power XL4000DFV | 3.5kW Dual-Fuel Generator | Petrol & LPG | Electric Start | AVR

The Excel Power XL4000DFV is a versatile open-frame dual-fuel generator designed to operate on either petrol or LPG, giving users greater flexibility when reliable portable power is required.

Delivering up to 3500W starting power on petrol and 3000W starting power on LPG, the XL4000DFV provides 3200W continuous rated output on petrol and 2800W continuous rated output on LPG.

With AVR voltage regulation, copper alternator windings, electric and recoil starting, a large 15-litre petrol fuel tank, wheeled transport system and a Euro V petrol engine, the XL4000DFV is well suited to domestic backup, trade, workshop, site and mobile power applications.

Dual-Fuel Petrol & LPG Operation

One of the main advantages of the XL4000DFV is its ability to operate using either petrol or LPG.

Dual-fuel capability provides greater flexibility when choosing how the generator is powered.

Petrol can provide straightforward portable operation, while LPG can offer a useful alternative where bottled gas is readily available.

The generator provides:

Petrol

  • 3500W maximum starting output
  • 3200W continuous rated output

LPG

  • 3000W maximum starting output
  • 2800W continuous rated output

This allows the user to select the most appropriate fuel source for the application.

3.5kW Maximum Petrol Output

When operating on petrol, the XL4000DFV delivers up to 3500W maximum output with a continuous rated output of 3200W.

This makes it suitable for powering a wide variety of electrical equipment including:

  • Power tools
  • Lighting
  • Workshop equipment
  • Domestic appliances
  • Pumps
  • Outdoor equipment
  • General backup loads

Always check both the starting and continuous power requirements of connected equipment before use.

Electric & Recoil Starting

The XL4000DFV offers both:

  • Electric start
  • Recoil pull start

Electric starting provides convenient everyday operation, while the manual recoil starter provides an alternative starting method when required.

The control panel incorporates the main engine switch and electric-start control in one accessible location.

AVR Voltage Regulation

The generator is fitted with an Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR).

AVR technology helps stabilise the generator's electrical output as connected loads change, making the XL4000DFV suitable for a broad range of conventional electrical equipment.

Copper Alternator Windings

The XL4000DFV features copper alternator windings.

Copper windings are widely used in quality generator designs due to their electrical conductivity and suitability for regular generator operation.

Combined with AVR regulation, this helps provide dependable power for general-purpose applications.

Low Oil Level Protection

The XL4000DFV incorporates low oil level protection together with a dedicated low-oil alert indicator.

This helps reduce the risk of engine damage caused by operating with insufficient lubrication.

Routine oil checks should still form part of normal generator maintenance.

Euro V Petrol Engine

The generator uses a low-emission Euro V petrol engine, helping meet modern emissions requirements.

This makes the XL4000DFV a practical choice for users looking for a modern dual-fuel portable generator suitable for UK applications.

Large 15-Litre Fuel Tank

The XL4000DFV is fitted with a substantial 15-litre petrol fuel tank.

This provides useful extended running capability when operating on petrol and reduces the frequency of refuelling compared with smaller portable generators.

Actual runtime will depend on electrical load and operating conditions.

230V UK Socket

The control panel includes:

1 x 13A 230V UK socket

This allows standard compatible UK appliances, tools and equipment to be connected directly to the generator.

16A Industrial Socket

The generator is also equipped with:

1 x 16A blue industrial socket

This provides a robust connection option for suitable site, workshop and industrial equipment.

12V DC Car-Style Socket

A 12V DC cigarette-style socket is also provided on the control panel.

This offers an additional low-voltage power connection for compatible equipment.

Digital Information Centre

The XL4000DFV features a digital information centre displaying key generator operating data including:

  • Voltage
  • Frequency
  • Operating hours

This allows users to monitor generator performance and keep track of running hours for servicing and maintenance.

Circuit Breaker Protection

An integrated circuit breaker helps protect the generator's electrical output in the event of excessive load or fault conditions.

Earth Connection

A dedicated earth connection point is provided on the control panel.

Earthing requirements vary depending on the application and installation, so appropriate electrical guidance should always be followed.

Heavy-Duty Steel Protection Frame

The generator is housed within a strong open-frame steel tubular structure.

The protective frame helps shield the engine, fuel tank, alternator and control panel during transportation and use.

This makes the XL4000DFV suitable for demanding domestic, trade and light commercial environments.

Wheels & Handles for Easier Movement

Despite its substantial construction, the XL4000DFV incorporates wheels and handling points to make repositioning easier.

This is particularly useful because the generator weighs approximately 60kg.

The wheeled design makes it much easier to move around workshops, sites, garages and other working environments than a fixed-frame generator of a similar weight.

Dimensions & Weight

The XL4000DFV measures approximately:

  • 600mm long
  • 460mm wide
  • 550mm high
  • 60kg weight

Its dimensions provide a useful balance between power capacity, stability and portability.

Typical Applications

The Excel Power XL4000DFV is suitable for a wide range of portable and backup power applications, including:

  • Domestic backup power
  • Workshops
  • Garages
  • Trade applications
  • Construction and maintenance
  • Power tools
  • Pumps
  • Lighting
  • Outdoor events
  • Market stalls
  • Mobile work
  • General electrical equipment

Its combination of dual-fuel operation, 3.5kW petrol output, AVR voltage regulation, electric start and wheeled frame makes it a particularly versatile portable generator.

3-Year Warranty

The Excel Power XL4000DFV is covered by a 3-year warranty, providing additional reassurance for users requiring dependable portable power.

Warranty terms and conditions should always be checked before purchase.
