Normal Operating Range
This unit is tested in accordance to UL 2200 standards with an operating temperature of -20º F (-29º C) to 122º F (50º
C). For areas where temperatures fall below 32º F (0º C) a cold weather kit is highly recommended. When operated
above 77º F (25º C) there may be a decrease in engine power. Please reference the engine specifications section.
These generators are rated in accordance with UL 2200, Safety Standard for Stationary Engine Generator Assemblies, and CSA-C22.2 No. 100-04
Standard for Motors and Generators.
* Natural Gas ratings will depend on specific fuel Btu/joules content. Typical derates are between 10-20% off the LP gas rating.
** Circuits to be moved must be protected by same size breaker. For example, a 15 amp circuit in the main panel must be a 15 amp circuit in the transfer
switch.

Engine power is subject to and limited by such factors as fuel Btu/joules content, ambient temperature and altitude. Engine power decreases about 3.5
percent for each 1,000 feet (304.8 meters) above sea level, and also will decrease about 1 percent for each 6º C (10º F) above 15º C (60º F) ambient tem-
perature.
