Description
The Hyundai DHY6000SE on rubber feet, built to stay where you put it. The LT800 version is the same 5.2kW silenced diesel generator as the wheeled DHY6000SE, supplied with feet instead of a wheel kit for use with LT600 and LT800 lighting towers or a fixed base. Diesel long-run ability and a sound-attenuated canopy make it a good fit for permanent spots.

Why buyers choose the DHY6000SE-LT800
- Made for a fixed position. Rubber feet instead of wheels, for lighting towers, concrete pads and permanent standby spots.
- Diesel for long running. A 16-litre tank gives up to 16 hours at 50% load, or about 9 hours at full load.
- Key start. Electric start from the 12V 36Ah battery, with nothing to pull.
- Quieter canopy. The sound-attenuated canopy brings it down to 70 dB(A) at 7m.
- 230V and 110V on the panel. One 230V 32A, one 115V 32A and one 115V 16A outlet.
- Standby ready. Hyundai's ATS module is available for this series if you want it to start automatically in a power cut.
Is it right for you?
Ideal for: LT600 and LT800 lighting towers, farms and smallholdings with a concrete base, workshops and outbuildings, and standby setups where the machine won't move.
Look elsewhere if: you need to move it around, in which case choose the wheeled DHY6000SE from our Hyundai range. For longer unattended runs, see our long-run generators. For sensitive electronics, an inverter generator gives smoother power.
What will it run?
Plan around the 4.5kW continuous output. The 5.2kW maximum is for short bursts, such as a motor starting.
| Appliance | Typical running watts |
|---|---|
| Fridge freezer (higher start-up draw) | 150 to 300W |
| Central heating pump and boiler electrics | 100 to 200W |
| LED lighting for a whole house | 100 to 300W |
| Microwave (800W cooking power) | around 1,200W |
| Kettle | 2,500 to 3,000W |
| Bench grinder or small compressor (higher start-up draw) | 500 to 1,500W |
| Electric shower | 7,500W and up: too much for this generator |
Example: fridge freezer 200W + boiler electrics 150W + lights 200W + TV 100W + kettle 3,000W comes to about 3,650W, which leaves around 850W in hand. Don't run the kettle and microwave together. Check the rating plates on your own appliances, as figures vary.
Using it for standby power
Never connect a generator to a house socket. Have a qualified electrician fit a manual changeover switch, or use Hyundai's ATS module and transfer panel for automatic start. Either way, the generator and the mains must never be connected together. Ask us which option suits your installation.
Getting it running
- Stand it on a level, solid base. At 152kg with no wheels, plan for mechanical lifting or several people.
- Add SAE 15W-40 engine oil before the first start, and check the level on the dipstick. Hyundai's data gives about 1.75 litres.
- Fill with clean diesel and connect the battery if it is supplied disconnected.
- Expect some smoke for the first few hours. One owner reported that this settles as the engine beds in.
- Hyundai's schedule asks for the first oil change at 20 hours or one month, then every 100 hours.

FAQs
Is this different from the normal DHY6000SE? It's the same generator with rubber feet in place of the wheel kit, so choose this version if it will stay put or sit on a lighting tower.
Is it really silent? Hyundai calls this its silent range, but 70 dB(A) at 7m is still clearly audible. It's far quieter than an open-frame diesel, but keep it well away from neighbours.
Will LED lights flicker? One owner noticed some flicker on LED lighting. That's quite normal on a generator of this type. If your loads are sensitive, an inverter generator is the better choice.
Does it need a battery charger? The battery needs occasional charging if it stands unused for long periods. Run it regularly, or keep it topped up with a trickle charger.
Not sure it's the right size? Send us your appliance list at sales@generator-uk.co.uk or call 01744 520110, Monday to Friday, 8:30am to 5pm, and we'll help you size it.
Safety: run outdoors only, well away from doors and windows. Generator exhaust contains carbon monoxide. Let the engine cool before refuelling.
