Rating Standard: All models; Ratings are based on ISO 3046/1-1995 with mechanical efficiency of 90% and auxiliary water temperature Tcra (clause 10.1) as
specified limited ±10° F (5° C). Ratings are also valid for SAE J1349, BS5514, DIN6271 and AP17B-11C standard atmospheric conditions.
Intermittent Power Rating: The highest load and speed which can be applied in variable speed mechanical system application only. Operation at this rating is limited
to a maximum of 3500 hours per year.
ISO Standard Power/Continuous Power Rating: The highest load and speed which can be applied 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days per year except
for normal maintenance, it is permissible to operate the engine at up to 10% overload, or maximum load indicated by the intermittent rating, whichever is lower, for
two hours in each 24 hour period.
Standby Power Rating: This rating applies to those systems used as a secondary source of electrical power. This rating is the output the system will produce
continuously (no overload), 24 hours per day for the duration of the prime power source outage.
