Caution: The airflows shown in this table will provide acceptable cooling for an open power unit operating in ambient temperatures of up
to 54 °C (129.2 °F) or 46 °C (114.8 °F) if a canopy is fitted with an airflow restiriction of up to 27 kPa (28 mm H2O). If the power unit is to
be enclosed totally, a cooling test should be done to check that the engine cooling is acceptable. If there is insufficient cooling, contact
Perkins Technical Service Department.
