I would like some opinions concerning maximum continuous load based on the data presented below. It's a 3000W Champion operating on Natural Gas.
I saw the tech bulletin concerning governor adjustment. It said the normal RPM range was 3600 to 3720. As you can see, RPM at 22.9A is below the recommended range.
I can cause the RPM to increase above 3600 at 23A by pressing on the governor arm, so the engine has not reached it's limit. I believe setting 3600 at 23A will cause the light loads to exceed 3800 RPM. My normal load is about 10A but 22A will be needed for a few hours when battery charging is added to the load.
If I leave things as they are, is it OK to run continuously at 3500 RPM with a heavy load?
