W Dura nea Power generation engines General Power definitions ‘The power generation engines have different power ratings depending on the type of service in which the engine will be employed. Our experience is that most of the power requirements are covered by PRP and ESP. PRP. Prime power For continuous operation at varying load. Max mean load factor of 70% of rated power over 24 h of operation 1 hour/12 hours period of accumulated peak overload to 110%. Power definition acc. to ISO 8528, Power test code: ISO 3046, ISO 8528, DIN 6280 Dauerbetrieb, cop Continuous power For continuous operation at constant load for an unlimited number of hours per year. The permitted loadis defined for each engine and specified in the Data handbook, see chapter 3. Esp ‘Maximum stand-by power For operation under normal varying load during @ power outage. Not overloadable, Max mean load factor of 70% of rated power over 24 h of operation. Not for applications intended for more than 200 hiyear. Intended for electrical networks, which under normal conditions, are well established (Europe, North and South America, Australia, New Zealand, Japan and Taiwan). For other areas, prime power rating is recommended to be used for stand-by power as well Power test code: ISO 3046, DIN 6280 Begr. Dauerbetrieb 300 h/Jahr. Certain installations have other demands on power than those covered by PRP, ESP and COP, Continuous Power 100% acc. to ISO 8528, Peak shaving connected to grid or LTP, Limited Time Power acc, to ISO 8528. For these types of installations, special considerations have to be made regarding the cooling system, air intake etc. In Such cases, please contact your Product Sales Manager at Scania. Wnen we know more about the installation in question, we will help you to find a solution that fuls your requirements regarding power and running time, a6 well as Scania’s demands on quality and reliability. SCAN ormnonooe Ww rN AHANDE Power generation engines Reference conditions When talking about output for an industrial engine, it should be noted that the ‘output’ depends on a number of physical circumstances which always influence the engine performance. The outputs stated in the Data Handbook have been determined under certain given test conditions according to the international performance standard ISO 3048. Output and other technical data apply to an engine without cooling fan and under the following conditions: ‘Atmospheric conditions Diesel fuel Barometric pressure; 1000 mbar Energy value! 42 700 kilkg Ar temperature: 25°C Density 0.84 kgld® Relative humidity: 30% cosity: «3.0 Stat 40°C For a new engine the brake output delivered may deviate from ‘sold output’ as ISO 3046 permits a tolerance of +£3%. According to our experience the output will also increase by 1.5-2% after a running period of 50-100 h. For gas engines the reference conditions are depending on the engine output, see the Gas quality specification in chapter 3. Engine starting conditions Atair temperatures below -10°C or altitudes above 2000 m, the use of an engine heater is recommended. For EU Stage V engines, an engine heater is recommended below -20°C.
