PERFORMANCE DATA (cont)

ALTITUDE COMPENSATION*

581B036-072

*

As the height above sea level increases, there is less oxygen per cubic foot of air.

Therefore, heat input rate should be reduced at higher altitudes.

†Orifices available through your Bryant distributor.

ALTITUDE COMPENSATION*

581B090-150

*As the height above sea level increases, there is less oxygen per cubic

foot of air. Therefore, heat input rate should be reduced at higher
altitudes.

†Orifices available through your local Bryant distributor.

ALTITUDE DERATING FACTOR*

581B036-150

*Derating of the unit is not required unless the heating value of the

gas exceeds the values listed in the table above, or if the elevation
exceeds 6000 ft. Derating conditions must be 4% per thousand ft
above sea level. For example, at 4000 ft, if the heating value of the
gas exceeds 1000 Btu/ft

3

, the unit will require a 16% derating. For

elevations above 6000 ft, the same formula applies. For example, at
7000 ft, the unit will require a 28% derating of the maximum heating
value per the National Fuel Gas Code.
