RATING DEFINITIONS AND CONDITIONS

Ratings are based on SAE J1995 standard conditions
of 100 kPa (29.61 in Hg) and 25°C (77°F). These ratings
also apply at ISO3046/1, DIN6271, and BS5514 standard
conditions of 100 kPa (29.61 in Hg), 27°C (81°F), and 60%
relative humidity. Ratings are valid for air cleaner inlet
temperatures up to and including 50°C (122°F).
Diesel fuel consumption has a tolerance of +5% and is
based on fuel oil of 35° API [16°C (60°F)] gravity having an
LHV of 42 780 kJ/kg (18 390 Btu/lb) when used at 29°C
(85°F) and weighing 838.9 g/liter (7.001 lbs/U.S. gal). Fuel
consumption shown with all oil, fuel, and water pumps,
engine driven.
Gaseous fuel consumption will be determined through
site-specific testing and will vary as a result of gas quality,
environmental conditions, and operating load factors.
