Overview: The document provides technical specifications and performance details for the C65 & C65-ICHP MicroTurbine by Capstone Turbine Corporation, designed for efficient and clean power generation using natural gas.

Exhaust Characteristics: The microturbine emits exhaust gas at a flow rate of 0.51 kg/s and a temperature of 311°C. It achieves NOx emissions of less than 4 ppmvd at 15% O2, which is among the lowest in the industry.

Electrical Performance: The turbine delivers an electrical power output of 65 kW with a voltage range of 400 to 480 VAC. It operates on a 3-phase, 4-wire electrical service at 60 Hz. The maximum output current is 100A for grid-connected operation and 127A for standalone operation, with an electrical efficiency of 28% LHV.

Fuel/Engine Characteristics: The turbine uses natural gas with an HHV of 825 to 1,275 BTU/scf and requires an inlet pressure of 75 psig. The fuel flow is 792,000 BTU/hr, and the generator heat rate is 11,400 BTU/kWh.

Design and Maintenance: The microturbine features a single moving part, minimizing maintenance and downtime. It includes a patented air bearing, eliminating the need for lubricating oil or coolant. Remote monitoring and diagnostic capabilities are integrated, along with utility synchronization and protection.

Heat Recovery: The C65-ICHP model offers hot water heat recovery of 408,000 BTU/hr, achieving a total system efficiency of 80% LHV.

Dimensions and Weight: The grid connect model measures 762 x 2200 x 2620 mm and weighs 1090 kg, while the dual mode model weighs 1450 kg. Minimum clearance requirements are specified for installation.

Sound Levels: Acoustic emissions at full load power are nominally 65 dBA at 10 meters, with an optional acoustic inlet hood kit available to reduce noise.

Certifications: The microturbine is certified to UL 2200 and UL 1741 for natural gas operation and complies with IEEE 1547. It meets California Rule 21 and New York State Public Service Commission requirements and is CARB 2007 certified for natural gas operation.
