effects of altitude and heat
The maximum output of the engines listed above are applicable to supplying electrical power for continuous service at
ambient conditions in accordance with SAE Test cord J607. The above ambient conditions are at standard sea level, with
a barometric reading of 29.92 inches and a temperature of 60° F (15.5° C).
Generally, the engine's output power will decrease 3-1/2% for each 1000 feet (305 meters) of altitude above sea level, and
1% for each 10° F (-12.2° C) above the standard temperature of 60° F (15.5° C).
