Remarks

  • Exhaust emission: Dry exhaust gas with oxygen content 5%, NOx ≤500mg/Nm3
  • Engine power rating is based on the international standard ISO 3046/1
  • The volume of ventilation air at Delta T=15K, including the volume of air for combustion
  • Piping and lubricant heat exchangers are excluded
  • Frequency is 50Hz, voltage is 400V, power factor is 1.0. It is normal for the engine output power to fluctuate within a range of ±5%.
  • This power rating is an ideal value with ideal air source, temperature and humidity, elevation of 100m and other factors
  • The Kvs value refers to the flow rate with a pressure loss of 1 bar *This data is for reference only and is not intended to be a binding value. Please refer to the information in the technical agreement.
