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 above
limited to ± 10° F (± 5° C). Ratings are also valid for SAE J1349, BS5514, DIN6271 and AP17B-11C standard atmospheric conditions.
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.
All natural gas engine ratings are based on a fuel of 900 Btu/ft3 (35.3 MJ/nm3) SLHV, with a 91 WKI®.

NOTES:
1) Performance ratings are based on ISO 3046/1-1995 with mechanical efficiency of 90% and Tcra limited to ± 10° F.
2) Fuel consumptions based on ISO 3046/1-1995 with a +5% tolerance for commercial quality natural gas having a 900 Btu/ft3 saturated low heat value.
3) Data based on standard conditions of 77° F (25° C) ambient temperature, 29.53 inches Hg (100kPa) barometric pressure, 30% relative humidity (0.3 inches Hg /1 kPa water
vapor pressure).
4) Data will vary due to variations in site conditions. For conditions and/or fuels other than standard, consult the Dresser Waukesha Application Engineering Department.
