Emissions data measurement procedures are consistent with those described in EPA CFR 40 Part 89, Subpart D & E and ISO8178-1 for
measuring HC, CO, PM, NOx. Data shown is based on steady state operating conditions of 77ºF, 28.42 in HG and number 2 diesel fuel
with 35º API and LHV of 18,390 btu/lb. The nominal emissions data shown is subject to instrumentation, measurement, facility and engine
to engine variations. Emissions data is based on 100% load and thus cannot be used to compare to EPA regulations which use values
based on a weighted cycle.
Meets or Exceeds International Specifications: AS1359,
CSA, IEC60034-1, ISO3046, ISO8528, NEMA MG 1-22,
NEMA MG 1-33, UL508A, 72/23/EEC, 98/37/EC,
2004/108/EC
Standby - Output available with varying load for the
duration of the interruption of the normal source power.
Average power output is 70% of the standby power
rating. Typical operation is 200 hours per year, with
maximum expected usage of 500 hours per year.
Standby power in accordance with ISO8528. Fuel stop
power in accordance with ISO3046. Standby ambients
shown indicate ambient temperature at 100% load which
results in a coolant top tank temperature just below the
shutdown temperature.
Ratings are based on SAE J1349 standard conditions.
These ratings also apply at ISO3046 standard conditions.
Fuel rates are based on fuel oil of 35º API [16º C (60º F)]
gravity having an LHV of 42 780 kJ/kg (18,390 Btu/lb)
when used at 29º C (85º F) and weighing 838.9 g/liter
(7.001 lbs/U.S. gal.). Additional ratings may be available
for specific customer requirements, contact your
Caterpillar representative for details. For information
regarding Low Sulfur fuel and Biodiesel capability,
please consult your Caterpillar dealer.
