Megagen Z48 High-Output Quiet Generator | 40kW Event Power
Serious Power for Demanding Productions
When your event scales up, so do your power demands. The megagen Z48 is the professional-grade generator designed to handle larger stages, multiple high-draw food vendors, and extensive lighting rigs with confidence. It delivers a substantial 40 kW of prime power while maintaining an impressively low sound level of just 67 dBA. This combination of high output and quiet operation makes the Z48 the perfect solution for productions that require significant power without creating a noisy distraction.
Features That Make a Difference
The Z48 is engineered with the robust components and intelligent controls needed to power significant events and jobsites reliably and efficiently.
-
High-Capacity 40 kW Output: At its core is a powerful Kohler KD12504TCR T4F diesel engine , providing a solid 40 kW (50 kVA) of prime output. This increased capacity allows you to run more equipment simultaneously, making it ideal for medium-sized festival stages, food truck rallies, and large tented events.
-
Quietly Confident Performance: Despite its high power output, the Z48 is designed with superior sound proofing to maintain an operational volume of just 67 dBA. This ensures your event's audio and atmosphere remain the focus, not the hum of a generator.
-
All-Day, All-Night Runtime: A large 68-gallon (256 L) fuel tank delivers a continuous 30-hour runtime at 75% load. For even longer, uninterrupted power, a 3-way fuel valve allows for a seamless connection to an external fuel tank.
-
Flexible & Heavy-Duty Connections: The Z48 is equipped to handle a variety of loads with two 120V 20A duplex outlets and three 120V/240V 50A outlets. Combined with its switchable 240/480/600V system, it provides the versatility to power everything from standard tools to high-demand production equipment.
-
Intelligent Operation & Protection: The advanced DSE controller enables remote start-up and shut down, giving event managers crucial control from a distance. A built-in 30% load bank automatically protects the engine from damage during low-load periods, ensuring the unit's longevity and reliability.
Perfect For Any Occasion
The Z48 is the ideal power solution when your needs go beyond basic setups. It's perfectly suited for powering a small festival stage with lights and sound, a large food truck rally with multiple vendors, or a sophisticated outdoor corporate event with extensive A/V equipment. Its combination of high power, quiet operation, and long runtime makes it a dependable cornerstone for any successful production.
