Rating definitions
Baseload power
Unlimited hours usage with an average load factor of 100% of the published baseload power rating.

Prime power
Variable load. Unlimited hours usage with an average load factor of 80% of the published Prime Power over each 24 hour period. A 10%
overload is available for 1 hour in every 12 hours.

Standby power
Limited to 500 hours annual usage with an average load factor of 80% of the published Standby Power rating over each 24 hour period.Up
to 300 hours of annual usage may be run continuously. No overload is permitted on Standby Power.

Emissions capability
All 4012-46TAG ratings are optimised to the ‘best fuel consumption’ and do not comply to Harmonised International Regulation Emission
Limits. More information on these statements can be obtained by contacting the Applications Department at Perkins Engines Company
Limited.
