RATINGS: Standby ratings are continuous for the duration of any power outage. No overload capacity is specified at this rating. Prime ratings are continuous per BS 5514, DIN 6271, ISO-3046, and IEC 34-1 with 10% overload capacity one hour in twelve hours. All single-phase units are rated at 1.0 power factor. All three-phase units are rated at 0.8 power factor. Contact the factory for ratings of city water-cooled and remote radiator models. Larger alternators may be used to meet special application requirements. Availability is subject to change without notice. Kohler Co. reserves the right to change the design or specifications without notice and without any obligation or liability whatsoever. Contact your local Kohler Co. generator distributor for availability. NOTE: Order separate generator set specs for 50 or 60 Hz as this model cannot change frequency. 60 Hz DERATION: Maximum altitude before generator set deration, m (ft.): 183 (600). Altitude deration factor, % per 305 m (1000 ft.): 8.0. Maximum altitude capability: 1524 m (5000 ft.) . Maximum intake air temperature before generator set deration, _C (_F): 29 (85). Temperature deration factor, % per 5.5_C (10_F): 2.5. 50 Hz DERATION: Maximum altitude before generator set deration, m (ft.): 183 (600). Altitude deration factor, % per 305 m (1000 ft.): 8.0. Maximum altitude capability: 1524 m (5000 ft.). No derate for temperature.
