Included because its manual publishes both capacity and performance guidance across water/ambient conditions.
Capacity basis: Commercial manual publishes 5,115 BTU/h and explicitly warns that high ambient temperature decreases cooling capacity.
The engine applies a low-temperature/high-ambient capacity band rather than assuming the nameplate BTU remains exact under every condition. Internal chiller pressure drop is also represented as a range, so a hydraulic PASS is only strong when it survives that uncertainty.
