Net available power unit ratings - includes derate for radiator fan. See Ratings Adjustment chart (S8154 latest revision) for adjustment for altitude and temperature.
*Low speed turbocharger (Code 7000) required for operation at 1200 - 1400 rpm and GLU/GLDU only.
Rating Standard: All models - Ratings are based on ISO 3046/1-1986 with mechanical efficiency of 90% and 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.
I = Intermittent Service Rating: The highest load and speed that can be applied in variable speed mechanical system application only. Operation at this rating is limited to a maximum
of 3500 hours per year.
C = ISO Standard Power/Continuous Power Rating: The highest load and speed which can be applied 24 hours per day, seven days per week, 365 days per year except for
normal maintenance. It is permissible to operate the engine at up to 10% overload, or a maximum load indicated by the intermittent rating, whichever is lower, for two hours in
every 24 hour period.
