OPERATING DATA
COMMERCIAL 80 kW
RATING: All three phases units are rated at 0.8 power factor. All single phase units are rated at 1.0 power factor. STANDBY RATING: Standby ratings apply to installations served by a reliable utility 
source. The standby rating is applicable to varying loads for the duration of a power outage. There is no overload capability for this rating. Ratings are in accordance with ISO-3046-1. Design and 
specifications are subject to change without notice. Maximum wattage and current are subject to and limited by such factors as fuel Btu content, ambient temperature, altitude, engine power 
and condition, etc.
