    RATING DEFINITIONS AND CONDITIONS

    A-Rating (Unrestricted Continuous)% Load Factor: 80 to 100 % Time at Rated RPM: up to80 Typical Time at Full Load: No Limit TypicalHour/Year: 5000 to 8000 Typical Applications: Forvessels operating at rated load and rated speed up to100% of the time without interruption or load cycling(80% to 100% load factor). Typical applications couldinclude but are not limited to vessels such as freighters,tugboats, bottom drag trawlers, or deep river tugboats.Typical operation ranges from 5000 to 8000 hours peryear.

    Powerat declared engine speed is in accordance withISO3046-1:2002E. Caterpillar maintainsISO9001:1994/QS-9000 approved engine test facilitiesto assure accurate calibration of test equipment.Electronically controlled engines are set at the factory atthe advertised power corrected to standard ambientconditions. The published fuel consumption rates are inaccordance with ISO3046-1:2002E.

    Fuel ratesare based on fuel oil of 35 API [16C (60F)] gravityhaving an LHV of 42 780 kJ/kg (18,390 Btu/lb)whenused at 29C (85F) and weighing 838.9 g/L (7.001lb/U.S. gal). Additional ratings may be available forspecific customer requirements. Consult your Caterpillarrepresentative for additional information.

    Performance data is calculated in accordance with tolerances and conditions stated in this specification sheet and isonly intended for purposes of comparison with other manufacturer's engines. Actual engine performance may varyaccording to the particular application of the engine and operating conditions beyond Caterpillar's control.

    Power produced at the flywheel will be within standard tolerances up to 49 C (120 F) combustion air temperaturemeasured at the air cleaner inlet, and fuel temperature up to 52 C (125F) measured at the fuel filter base. Powerrated in accordance with NMMA procedure as crankshaft power. Reduce crankshaft power by 3% for propeller shaftpower.

    A&I ChecklistIntroductionMarine engine installations require careful considerationto ensure reliable and economical performance. Thefollowing checklist is provided to highlight some of themore important areas which should be considered whenapplying and installing marine engines. Detailedinformation regarding these guidelines can be found inthe Cat Marine Engine Application and InstallationGuide, Form LEGM4724-4737.

    For vessels required to meet standards of marineclassification societies or government agencies, theappropriate society or agency should be consulted ontheir current requirements. Brief information on thevarious internationally recognized marine classificationsocieties with whom Caterpillar has homologationagreements is given in the Technical MarketingInformation on- line system or microfiche.

    The following list is offered as a guide to call attention tothe different factors which must be taken intoconsideration when planning or executing a marineinstallation. Proper review of each factor will help ensurea satisfactory installation.

    Fuel System1. Are the fuel tanks clean, properly vented to theatmosphere, and equipped with drain plugs at thebottom?

    2. Are fuel lines clean and of sufficient size, and are theyconnected to the engine through flexible connections?

    3. Are primary fuel filters properly installed?

    4. Is excess fuel return connected as recommended?

    5. Are fuel lines securely fastened to prevent wear andchafing?

    6. Are fuel lines, valves, and tanks made of a materialthat will not react chemically with diesel fuel?

    7. Are fuels to be used clean, free of water andsediments, and of the recommended specifications ?

    8. Are spare fuel filters available on board?

    9. Is a water and sediment trap installed in the lowestpoint in the fuel system?

    10. If an auxiliary or day tank is used, is it located somaximum fuel level is no higher than fuel injection valveson engine?

    Engine Rating and Power Setting1. Is the engine properly rated for intended service?

    2. Is the fuel system and governor correctly set for theapplied rating?

    3. Is the fuel ratio control functioning properly and setcorrectly?

    4. For separate circuit aftercooled or sea wateraftercooled engines, is water of the right temperatureavailable for the aftercooler?

    Electrical System1. Are engine accessory electrical circuits properly fusedor protected by circuit breakers?

    2. Are wires properly grouped, identified, and securelyfastened?

    3. Are dissimilar metals in contact with sea waterelectrically isolated from each other?

    Mounting and Alignment1. Is the engine bed of proper size and strength?

    2. Is the auxiliary engine resilient mounted to preventdamage to bearings?

    3. Motion stops incorporated in resilient mounts per A &I guide instructions?

    4. When collision blocks are used, are they located withsufficient clearance to allow for thermal growth of theengine?

    Instrumentation and Monitoring Systems1. Does the installation require use of instruments in bothengine compartment and pilot house?

    2. If pilot house instrument panel is required, are theinstruments properly wired or connected?
