mergency Standby Power only - power available in the event of a main power network failure, up to a maximum of 200 hours per year
which may by run continuously. Load factor may be up to 100% of the Emergency Standby Power rating. No overload is permitted.
Rating definitions
Prime power
Variable load. Unlimited hours usage with an average load factor of 80% of the published Prime Power rating over each 24 hour period.
A 10% overload is available for 1 hour in every 12 hours operatio.
Standby power
Variable load. Limited to 500 hours annual usage up to 300 hours of which may be continuous running. No overload is permitted.
Emissions capability
Certified against the requirements of Tier 2 legislation for non-road mobile machinery, powered by constant speed engines
(EPA 40 CFR Part 89 Tier 2). These engines also comply with the 1/2 TA Luft (1986) NOx limits of 2000 mg/nm³
