TOTAL DERATION FACTORS:

This table shows the deration required for various air inlet temperatures and altitudes. Use this information to help determine actual engine power for your site. The total deration factor includes deration due to altitude and ambient temperature, and air inlet manifold temperature deration. AFTERCOOLER HEAT REJECTION FACTORS: Aftercooler heat rejection is given for standard conditions of 25C and 150 m altitude. To maintain a constant air inlet manifold temperature, as the air to turbo temperature goes up, so must the heat rejection. As altitude increases, the turbocharger must work harder to overcome the lower atmospheric pressure. This increases the amount of heat that must be removed from the inlet air by the aftercooler. Use the aftercooler heat rejection factor to adjust for ambient and altitude conditions. Multiply this factor by the standard aftercooler heat rejection. GENERATOR EFFICIENCY: Generator power determined with an assumed generator effeciency of 95% [generator power = engine power x 0.95]. If the actual generator efficiency is less than 95% [and greater than 94.5%], the generator power [ekW] listed in the technical data can still be achieved. The BSFC values must be increased by a factor. The factor is a percentage = 95% - actual generator efficiency. SOUND DATA: Data determined by methods similar to ISO Standard DIS-8528-10. Accuracy Grade 3.

RATING DEFINITIONS AND CONDITIONS

CONTINUOUS POWER 8,000 hrs./yr., for applications with load factors less than or equal to 100%. 10% overload available. RATINGS are based on SAE J1995/ISO3046 standard conditions of 100 kPa (29.61 in. Hg), 25C (77F), and 30% relative humidity at the stated charge air cooler water temperature. Ratings also meet classification society maximum temperature requirements of 45C (113F) air temperature to the turbocharger and 32C (90F) seawater temperature without derate. Additional ratings may be available for specific customer requirements. Consult your Caterpillar representative for additional information. FUEL RATES are based on 35 API, 16C (60F) fuel used at 29C (85F) with a density of 838.9 g/liter (7.001 lbs/U.S. gal). Lower Heat Value (LHV) of 42 780 kJ/kg (18,390 Btu/lb). Tolerance is +5%. Includes all engine mounted pumps. BSFC without pumps is 3% less. MARINE CERTIFICATION Ratings are marine classification society approved by ABS, BV, CCS, DnV, GL, LRS, and RINA. These societies have also granted C280 factory line production approval which eliminates requirement for society surveyor witness test.

Performance data is calculated in accordance with tolerances and conditions stated in this specification sheet and is only intended for purposes of comparison with other manufacturers engines. Actual engine performance may vary according to the particular application of the engine and operating conditions beyond Caterpillars control. Power produced at the flywheel will be within standard tolerances up to 49C (120F) combustion air temperature measured at the air cleaner inlet, and fuel temperature up to 52C (125F) measured at the fuel filter base. Power rated in accordance with NMMA procedure as crankshaft power. Reduce crankshaft power by 3% for propeller shaft power.

TOTAL DERATION FACTORS: This table shows the deration required for various air inlet temperatures and altitudes. Use this information to help determine actual engine power for your site. The total deration factor includes deration due to altitude and ambient temperature, and air inlet manifold temperature deration. AFTERCOOLER HEAT REJECTION FACTORS: Aftercooler heat rejection is given for standard conditions of 25C and 150 m altitude. To maintain a constant air inlet manifold temperature, as the air to turbo temperature goes up, so must the heat rejection. As altitude increases, the turbocharger must work harder to overcome the lower atmospheric pressure. This increases the amount of heat that must be removed from the inlet air by the aftercooler. Use the aftercooler heat rejection factor to adjust for ambient and altitude conditions. Multiply this factor by the standard aftercooler heat rejection. GENERATOR EFFICIENCY: Generator power determined with an assumed generator effeciency of 96% [generator power = engine power x 0.96]. If the actual generator efficiency is less than 96% [and greater than 94.5%], the generator power [ekW] listed in the technical data can still be achieved. The BSFC values must be increased by a factor. The factor is a percentage = 96% - actual generator efficiency. SOUND DATA: Data determined by methods similar to ISO Standard DIS-8528-10. Accuracy Grade 3.

TOTAL DERATION FACTORS: This table shows the deration required for various air inlet temperatures and altitudes. Use this information to help determine actual engine power for your site. The total deration factor includes deration due to altitude and ambient temperature, and air inlet manifold temperature deration. AFTERCOOLER HEAT REJECTION FACTORS: Aftercooler heat rejection is given for standard conditions of 25C and 150 m altitude. To maintain a constant air inlet manifold temperature, as the air to turbo temperature goes up, so must the heat rejection. As altitude increases, the turbocharger must work harder to overcome the lower atmospheric pressure. This increases the amount of heat that must be removed from the inlet air by the aftercooler. Use the aftercooler heat rejection factor to adjust for ambient and altitude conditions. Multiply this factor by the standard aftercooler heat rejection. GENERATOR EFFICIENCY: Generator power determined with an assumed generator effeciency of 96% [generator power = engine power x 0.96]. If the actual generator efficiency is less than 96% [and greater than 94.5%], the generator power [ekW] listed in the technical data can still be achieved. The BSFC values must be increased by a factor. The factor is a percentage = 96% - actual generator efficiency. SOUND DATA: Data determined by methods similar to ISO Standard DIS-8528-10. Accuracy Grade 3.

PRIME POWER 6,000 hrs./yr., for applications with load factors less than or equal to 60%. Rated load (100%) usage is limited to 1 hour in 12. 10% overload available. RATINGS are based on SAE J1995/ISO3046 standard conditions of 100 kPa (29.61 in. Hg), 25C (77F), and 30% relative humidity at the stated charge air cooler water temperature. Ratings also meet classification society maximum temperature requirements of 45C (113F) air temperature to the turbocharger and 32C (90F) seawater temperature without derate. Additional ratings may be available for specific customer requirements. Consult your Caterpillar representative for additional information. FUEL RATES are based on 35 API, 16C (60F) fuel used at 29C (85F) with a density of 838.9 g/liter (7.001 lbs/U.S. gal). Lower Heat Value (LHV) of 42 780 kJ/kg (18,390 Btu/lb). Tolerance is +5%. Includes all engine mounted pumps. BSFC without pumps is 3% less. MARINE CERTIFICATION Ratings are marine classification society approved by ABS, BV, CCS, DnV, GL, LRS, and RINA. These societies have also granted C280 factory line production approval which eliminates requirement for society surveyor witness test.

Performance data is calculated in accordance with tolerances and conditions stated in this specification sheet and is only intended for purposes of comparison with other manufacturers engines. Actual engine performance may vary according to the particular application of the engine and operating conditions beyond Caterpillars control. Power produced at the flywheel will be within standard tolerances up to 49C (120F) combustion air temperature measured at the air cleaner inlet, and fuel temperature up to 52C (125F) measured at the fuel filter base. Power rated in accordance with NMMA procedure as crankshaft power. Reduce crankshaft power by 3% for propeller shaft power.
