The First Low CO Generators

Westerbeke, the first company to bring constant speed EFI generators to the marine market introduces another first: low carbon monoxide generators. The new Safe-CO® series gasoline generators have cut carbon monoxide emissions by more than 99 percent!

EFI and Electronic Speed Control

All Safe-CO® model generators feature electronic fuel injection (EFI). EFI provides optimum fuel efficiency, easy starting and improved reliability. In conjunction with EFI, electronic speed control (via electronic governor) maintains the engine at a constant speed (precise frequency regulation) and eliminates “bogging down” when load is applied.

Smooth, Quiet & Compact

The 5.0 SBCG not only has one of the smallest envelopes available for a 5.0 kW marine gasoline generator, there is not another generator like it. Operating with 3-cylinders and a balance shaft that virtually eliminates vibration, the 5.0 SBCG is an extremely smooth running 5.0 kW.The unit also operates at a quiet, electronically controlled, 1800 RPM. So quiet, it doesn’t require a sound shield. No other generator in its class is quieter!

Five Year Limited Warranty

The 5.0 SBCG is backed by Westerbeke’s 5-year limited warranty. The presence of Westerbeke in over 65 countries around the world provides customers with easy access to parts, service and technical support worldwide. Established in 1937, Westerbeke is committed to providing its customers with quality products and unequaled after sales support.
