Rating Definitions
Standby Rating based on: Applicable for supplying emergency power for the duration of normal power interruption. No
sustained overload capability is available for this rating. (Equivalent to Fuel Stop Power in accordance with ISO3046, AS2789,
DIN6271 and BS5514). Nominally rated.
Prime (Unlimited Running Time) Rating based on: Applicable for supplying power in lieu of commercially purchased
power. Prime power is the maximum power available at a variable load for an unlimited number of hours. A 10% overload
capability is available for limited time. (Equivalent to Prime Power in accordance with ISO8528 and Overload Power in
accordance with ISO3046, AS2789, DIN6271, and BS5514). This rating is not applicable to all generator set models.
Base Load (Continuous) Rating based on: Applicable for supplying power continuously to a constant load up to the full
output rating for unlimited hours. No sustained overload capability is available for this rating. Consult authorized distributor for
rating. (Equivalent to Continuous Power in accordance with ISO8528, ISO3046, AS2789, DIN6271, and BS5514). This rating
is not applicable to all generator set models.
Engine
Cummins heavy duty diesel engines use advanced combustion technology for reliable and stable power, low emissions, and
fast response to sudden load changes. Cummins fuel injection system includes standard electronic governing for precise
speed regulation in all applications including those requiring constant (isochronous) frequency regulation such as
Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) systems, non-linear loads, or sensitive electronic loads. Optional coolant heaters are
recommended for all emergency standby installations or any application requiring fast load acceptance after start-up.

Alternator
Several alternators are available for application flexibility, based on the required motor starting kVA and other requirements.
Larger alternator sizes have lower temperature rise, for longer life of the alternator insulation system. In addition, larger
alternator sizes can provide a cost-effective use of engine power in across-the-line motor starting applications and can be
used to reduce voltage waveform distortion caused by non-linear loads.
These single-bearing alternators couple directly to the engine flywheel with flexible discs, for drivetrain reliability and durability.
No gear reducers or speed changers are used. Two-thirds pitch armature windings eliminate third-order harmonic content of
the AC voltage waveform and provide the standardization desired for paralleling of generator sets. The standard excitation
system is a PMG excited system with three phase sensing.

Certifications
UL - The generator set is available Listed to UL2200, Stationary Engine Generator Assemblies.
ISO9001 - This generator set was designed and manufactured in facilities certified to ISO9001.
CSA - This generator set is CSA certified to product class 4215-01.
UL - The PowerCommand control is Listed UL508 - Category NITW7 for U.S. and Canadian usage.
NFPA - The Prototype Test Support (PTS) program verifies the performance integrity of the generator
set design. Cummins Onan products bearing the PTS symbol meet the prototype test requirements of
NFPA 110 for Level 1 systems. A complete representative prototype generator set has been subjected
to a number of demanding tests to verify the design integrity and performance under both normal and
abnormal operating conditions per the requirements of NFPA 110 for Level 1 systems. Tests include
short circuit, endurance, temperature rise, torsional vibration, and transient response, including full load
pickup in one step.
