CONDITIONS AND DEFINITIONS
Engine rating obtained and presented in accordance with ISO 3046/1. (Standard reference conditions of 77F, 29.60 in Hg barometric pressure, 500 ft. altitude.) No overload permitted at
rating shown. Consult the altitude deration factor chart for applications that exceed the rated altitude or temperature.
Emission levels are at engine exhaust flange prior to any after treatment. Values are based on engine operating at steady state conditions. Tolerances specified are dependent upon
fuel quality. Fuel methane number cannot vary more than  3. Part load data may require engine adjustment.
For notes information consult page three.

GAS ENGINE TECHNICAL DATA
FUEL USAGE GUIDE:
This table shows the derate factor required for a given fuel. Note that deration occurs as the methane number decreases. Methane number is a scale to measure detonation
characteristics of various fuels. The methane number of a fuel is determined by using the Caterpillar Methane Number Calculation program.
ALTITUDE DERATION FACTORS:
This table shows the deration required for various air inlet temperatures and altitudes. Use this information along with the fuel usage guide chart to help determine actual engine power for
your site.
ACTUAL ENGINE RATING:
To determine the actual rating of the engine at site conditions, one must consider separately, limitations due to fuel characteristics and air system limitations. The Fuel Usage Guide
deration establishes fuel limitations. The Altitude/Temperature deration factor and RPC (reference the Caterpillar Methane Program) are added together to establish air system
limitations. To determine the actual power available, take the lowest rating between 1) and 2).
1) Fuel Usage Guide Deration
2) 1-((1-Altitude/Temperature Deration) + (1-RPC))
MINIMUM SPEED CAPABILITY AT THE RATED SPEED'S SITE TORQUE (RPM):
This table shows the minimum allowable engine turndown speed where the engine will maintain the Rated Speeds Torque for the given ambient conditions.
NOTES:
1. Engine rating is with one engine driven jacket water pump. Tolerance is  3% of full load.
2. ISO 3046/1 engine efficiency tolerance is (+)0, (-)5% of full load % efficiency value. Nominal engine efficiency tolerance is  5.0% of full load % efficiency value.
3. ISO 3046/1 fuel consumption tolerance is (+)5, (-)0% of full load data. Nominal fuel consumption tolerance is  5.0% of full load data.
4. Air flow value is on a 'wet' basis. Flow is a nominal value with a tolerance of  5 %.
5. Inlet and Exhaust Restrictions must not exceed A&I limits based on full load flow rates from the standard technical data sheet.
6. Inlet manifold pressure is a nominal value with a tolerance of  5 %.
7. Inlet manifold temperature is a nominal value with a tolerance of  9F.
8. Timing indicated is for use with the minimum fuel methane number specified. Consult the appropriate fuel usage guide for timing at other methane numbers.
9. Exhaust temperature is a nominal value with a tolerance of (+)63F, (-)54F.
10. Exhaust flow value is on a 'wet' basis. Flow is a nominal value with a tolerance of  6 %.
11. Emissions data is at engine exhaust flange prior to any after treatment.
12. NOx values are "Not to Exceed".
13. CO, CO2, THC, NMHC, NMNEHC, and HCHO values are "Not to Exceed" levels. THC, NMHC, and NMNEHC do not include aldehydes.
14. VOCs - Volatile organic compounds as defined in US EPA 40 CFR 60, subpart JJJJ
15. Exhaust Oxygen tolerance is  0.5.
16. LHV rate tolerance is  5.0%.
17. Heat rejection to jacket water value displayed includes heat to jacket water alone. Value is based on treated water. Tolerance is  10% of full load data.
18. Heat rejection to atmosphere based on treated water. Tolerance is  50% of full load data.
19. Lube oil heat rate based on treated water. Tolerance is  20% of full load data.
20. Exhaust heat rate based on treated water. Tolerance is  10% of full load data.
21. Total Jacket Water Circuit heat rejection is calculated as: (JW x 1.1) + (OC x 1.2). Heat exchanger sizing criterion is maximum circuit heat rejection at site conditions, with applied
tolerances. A cooling system safety factor may be multiplied by the total circuit heat rejection to provide additional margin.

Sound Data
Data Variability Statement:
Sound data presented by Caterpillar has been measured in accordance with ISO 6798 in a Grade 3 test environment. Measurements made in
accordance with ISO 6798 will result in some amount of uncertainty. The uncertainties depend not only on the accuracies with which sound pressure
levels and measurement surface areas are determined, but also on the 'near-field error' which increases for smaller measurement distances and lower
frequencies. The uncertainty for a Grade 3 test environment, that has a source that produces sounds that are uniformly distributed in frequency over the
frequency range of interest, is equal to 4 dB (A-weighted). This uncertainty is expressed as the largest value of the standard deviation.
