RATING DEFINITIONS AND CONDITIONS

Engine performance is obtained in accordance with
SAE J1995, ISO3046/1, BS5514/1, and DIN6271/1
standards.
Transient response data is acquired from an
engine/generator combination at normal operating
temperature and in accordance with ISO3046/1
standard ambient conditions. Also in accordance
with SAE J1995, BS5514/1, and DIN6271/1
standard reference conditions.

LEHW6046-00

Conditions: Power for gas engines is based on

fuel having an LHV of 33.74 kJ/L (905 Btu/cu ft) at
101 kPa (29.91 in. Hg) and 15 C (59 F). Fuel rate
is based on a cubic meter at 100 kPa (29.61 in. Hg)
and 15.6 C (60.1 F). Air flow is based on a cubic
foot at 100 kPa (29.61 in. Hg) and 25 C (77 F).
Exhaust flow is based on a cubic foot at 100 kPa
(29.61 in. Hg) and stack temperature.
