* Emissions meet 2007 California Air Resources Board standards.
** Operating range from -20° to 113°F (-29° to 45°C) at up to 429 ft (150m).
*** Overall efficiency as given assumes full thermal utilization.
† All given characteristics are for a natural gas application, unless otherwise noted. Maximum allowable levels for natural gas components are documented separately in the PureCell® Model 400 System Installation Design Guide. ADG applications require an additional gas processing unit.
‡ Gauge pressure.
§ Available heat at rated power. Low-grade heat assumes a return temperature of 80°F (27°C); high-grade heat assumes a return temperature of 194°F (90°C). If high-grade heat is utilized, the remaining value will be available as low-grade heat. |
