Really Highly Doubt it that you will be able to run the AC off of your
portable Generator - Seeing that it is going to be a pain in the ass to
have the 240 and the 120v coming off your generator at the same time, and
not to mention unless you have a really big portable generator its not going
to supply the current you need to get that A/C up and running. That
Start-Up Current Spike is going to be way over what your generator probably
can supply thus it will trip everytime.

You still need full load amperage of both units. It would have been better
if the blower was 240 as well. Your generator puts out aprox 31 amps @240
volts continuous. The blower at 120 volt probably needs around 10 to 12
amps. Look on the nameplate of the condenser for the FLA

The condenser is 240V, but the blower fan is 120. The generator will
work
at 240 (though I'm not sure it is wired in through the panel at 240).

10 seer is the efficiency of the machine (low) you need to give the full
load amperage of the condenser and the blower as well as the voltage of
the
blower

I have a portable generator that is rated at 7,500 watts run and about
14,000 start. I have a 10 seer (sp?) central AC. Is it possible to
run
the
AC from the generator if nothing elese is attached to the generator?

Thanks.
