NOTE: Unit ratings are established based on operation at standard conditions of 60° F and at sea level. The
performance of the generator must be de-rated for temperature and altitude by 1% for every 10° F above
60° F and 3.5% for every 1000 feet above sea level. Due to the operational characteristics of the thermal
type circuit breaker, the power available from the generator will decrease slightly with a corresponding
increase in ambient temperature.
Due to continuing product improvements, specifications are subject to change without notice.
