The Honda EM1600X is AC/DC portable generator with 1.6 KVA of maximum power, 1.4 KVA of rated power and 60Hz of rated frequency. The EM1600X generator is available with AC 120V and DC 12V rated voltage. The direct current terminals can be used for charging 12-volt automotive-type batteries only up to 8.3A.
The Honda EM1600X generator with serial number GX140 1000001-3263982 uses the Honda GX140 engine. The cylinder bore is 64.0 mm (2.52 in) and the piston stroke is 45.0 mm (1.77 in). The compression ratio rating is 8.7:1. This engine used a horizontal type carburetor with butterfly valve, transistorized magneto ignition system, splash type lubricating system, and forced-air cooling system.
The Honda GX140 engine produced 5.0 PS (3.6 kW; 4.8 HP) at 4,000 rpm of maximum output power and 9.8 N·m (1 kg·m, 7.2 ft·lb) at 2,800 rpm of peak torque.
