Emergency Standby Ratings for application in Corporate Generator Sets Only
CONVERSIONS: (Litres = U.S. Gal x 3.785) (Engine kWm = BHP x 0.746) (U.S. Gal = Litres x 0.2642) (Engine BHP = Engine kWm x 1.34)
Data shown above represent gross engine performance capabilities obtained and corrected in accordance with ISO-3046 conditions of 100 kPa (29.53 in Hg)
barometric pressure [110 m (361 ft) altitude], 25 °C (77 °F) air inlet temperature, and relative humidity of 30% with No. 2 diesel or a fuel corresponding to ASTM D2.
See reverse side for application rating guidelines.
The fuel consumption data is based on No. 2 diesel fuel weight at 0.85 kg/litre (7.1 lbs/U.S. gal).
Power output curves are based on the engine operating with fuel system, water pump and lubricating oil pump; not included are battery charging alternator, fan,
optional equipment and driven components.
PRELIMINARY
These guidelines have been formulated to ensure proper application of generator drive engines
in Cummins corporate generator set installations. Generator drive engines are not designed for
and shall not be used in variable speed D.C. generator set applications.
Applicable for supplying emergency power for the duration of the utility power outage. No
overload capability is available for this standby rating. Under no condition is an engine
allowed to operate in parallel with the public utility at the Emergency Standby Power rating.
This rating should be applied where reliable utility power is available. An emergency
standby rated engine should be sized for a maximum of an 70% typical load factor and 200
hours of operation per year. This includes a maximum of 1 hour in a 12 hour period at the
Emergency Standby Power rating. Emergency Standby rating should never be applied
except in true emergency power outages. Negotiated power outages contracted with a util-
ity company are not considered an emergency.
