EN

Official Journal of the European Union

ANNEX I

The following section 8 is added to Annex I to Directive 97/68/EC

TYPE APPROVAL REQUIREMENTS FOR STAGES IIIB AND IV

This section shall apply to the type-approval of electronically controlled engines, which uses electronic control to

determine both the quantity and timing of injecting fuel (hereafter “engine”). This section shall apply irrespective

of the technology applied to such engines to comply with the emission limit values set out in sections 4.1.2.5

and 4.1.2.6 of this Annex.

Definitions

For the purpose of this section, the following definitions shall apply

“emission control strategy” means a combination of an emission control system with one base emission control

strategy and with one set of auxiliary emission control strategies, incorporated into the overall design of an

engine or non-road mobile machinery into which the engine is installed.

“reagent” means any consumable or non-recoverable medium required and used for the effective operation of the

exhaust after-treatment system.

General requirements

Requirements for base emission control strategy

Malta Government Gazette — Legal Notice 2011 185 — 185 tal-2011 – Regolamenti tal-2011 li jemendaw ir-Regolamenti dwar Miżuri kontra l-Emissjoni ta’ Tniġġiż ġej minn Gass u Partiċelli Żgħar minn Magni ta’ Kombustjoni Interna (Makkinarju Mobbli mhux Stradali)

3.1.1. The base emission control strategy, activated throughout the speed and torque operating range of the engine,

shall be designed as to enable the engine to comply with the provisions of this Directive

8.3.1.2. Any base emission control strategy that can distinguish engine operation between a standardised type approval

test and other operating conditions and subsequently reduce the level of emission control when not operating

under conditions substantially included in the type approval procedure is prohibited.

Requirements for auxiliary emission control strategy

8.3.2.1. An auxiliary emission control strategy may be used by an engine or a non-road mobile machine, provided that

the auxiliary emission control strategy, when activated, modifies the base emission control strategy in response to

a specific set of ambient and/or operating conditions but does not permanently reduce the effectiveness of the

emission control system

(a) where the auxiliary emission control strategy is activated during the type approval test, sections 8.3.2.2 and

8.3.2.3 shall not apply;

(b) where the auxiliary emission control strategy is not activated during the type approval test, it must be

demonstrated that the auxiliary emission control strategy is active only for as long as required for the

purposes identified in section 8.3.2.3.

8.3.2.2. The control conditions applicable to this section are all of the following

(a) an altitude not exceeding 1 000 metres (or equivalent atmospheric pressure of 90 kPa);

(b) an ambient temperature within the range 275 K to 303 K (2 °C to 30 °C);

(c) the engine coolant temperature above 343 K (70 °C).

Where the auxiliary emission control strategy is activated when the engine is operating within the control

conditions set out in points (a), (b) and (c), the strategy shall only be activated exceptionally.

8.3.2.3. An auxiliary emission control strategy may be activated in particular for the following purposes

(a) by onboard signals, for protecting the engine (including air-handling device protection) and/or non-road

mobile machine into which the engine is installed from damage;

(b) for operational safety and strategies;

(c) for prevention of excessive emissions, during cold start or warming-up, during shut-down;

B

(d) if used to trade-off the control of one regulated pollutant under specific ambient or operating conditions, for

maintaining control of all other regulated pollutants, within the emission limit values that are appropriate for

the engine concerned. The purpose is to compensate for naturally occurring phenomena in a manner that

provides acceptable control of all emission constituents.

8.3.2.4. The manufacturer shall demonstrate to the technical service at the time of the type-approval test that the

operation of any auxiliary emission strategy complies with the provisions of section 8.3.2. The demonstration

shall consist of an evaluation of the documentation referred to in section 8.3.3.

8.3.2.5. Any operation of an auxiliary emission control strategy not compliant with section 8.3.2 is prohibited.

Documentation requirements

8.3.3.1. The manufacturer shall provide an information folder accompanying the application for type-approval at the

time of submission to the technical service, which ensures access to any element of design and emission control

strategy and the means by which the auxiliary strategy directly or indirectly controls the output variables. The

information folder shall be made available in two parts

(a) the documentation package, annexed to the application for type-approval, shall include a full overview of the

emission control strategy. Evidence shall be provided that all outputs permitted by a matrix, obtained from

the range of control of the individual unit inputs, have been identified. This evidence shall be attached to the

information folder as referred to in Annex II;

(b) the additional material, presented to the technical service but not annexed to the application for type-

approval, shall include all the modified parameters by any auxiliary emission control strategy and the

boundary conditions under which this strategy operates and in particular

(i) a description of the control logic and of timing strategies and switch points, during all modes of

operation for the fuel and other essential systems, resulting in effective emissions control (such as

exhaust gas recirculation system (EGR) or reagent dosing);

(ii) a justification for the use of any auxiliary emission control strategy applied to the engine, accompanied

by material and test data, demonstrating the effect on exhaust emissions. This justification may be based

on test data, sound engineering analysis, or a combination of both;

(iii) a detailed description of algorithms or sensors (where applicable) used for identifying, analysing, or

diagnosing incorrect operation of the NO x control system;

(iv) the tolerance used to satisfy the requirements in section 8.4.7.2, regardless of the used means.

8.3.3.2. The additional material referred to in point (b) of section 8.3.3.1 shall be treated as strictly confidential. It shall

be made available to the type-approval authority on request. The type-approval authority shall treat this material

as confidential.

Requirements to ensure correct operation of NO x control measures

The manufacturer shall provide information that fully describes the functional operational characteristics of the

NO x control measures using the documents set out in section 2 of Appendix 1 to Annex II and in section 2 of

Appendix 3 to Annex II.

If the emission control system requires a reagent, the characteristics of that reagent, including the type of reagent,

information on concentration when the reagent is in solution, operational temperature conditions and reference

to international standards for composition and quality must be specified by the manufacturer, in section 2.2.1.13

of Appendix 1 and in section 2.2.1.13 of Appendix 3 to Annex II.

The engine emission control strategy shall be operational under all environmental conditions regularly pertaining

in the territory of the Community, especially at low ambient temperatures.

The manufacturer shall demonstrate that the emission of ammonia during the applicable emission test cycle of

the type approval procedure, when a reagent is used, does not exceed a mean value of 25 ppm.

If separate reagent containers are installed on or connected to a non-road mobile machine, means for taking a

sample of the reagent inside the containers must be included. The sampling point must be easily accessible

without requiring the use of any specialised tool or device.

Preparation of the sampling filters

At least one hour before the test, each filter shall be placed in a petri dish, which is protected against dust

contamination and allows air exchange, and placed in a weighing chamber for stabilisation. At the end of the

stabilisation period, each filter shall be weighed and the weight shall be recorded. The filter shall then be

stored in a closed petri dish or sealed filter holder until needed for testing. The filter shall be used within eight

hours of its removal from the weighing chamber. The tare weight shall be recorded.

Installation of the measuring equipment

The instrumentation and sample probes shall be installed as required. The tailpipe shall be connected to the

full-flow dilution system, if used.

Starting the dilution system

The dilution system shall be started. The total diluted exhaust gas flow of a full-flow dilution system or the

diluted exhaust gas flow through a partial flow dilution system shall be set to eliminate water condensation in

the system, and to obtain a filter face temperature between 315 K (42 °C) and 325 K (52 °C).

Starting the particulate sampling system

The particulate sampling system shall be started and run on by-pass. The particulate background level of the

dilution air may be determined by sampling the dilution air prior to entrance of the exhaust into the dilution

tunnel. It is preferred that background particulate sample be collected during the transient cycle if another PM

sampling system is available. Otherwise, the PM sampling system used to collect transient cycle PM can be

used. If filtered dilution air is used, one measurement may be done prior to or after the test. If the dilution air

is not filtered, measurements should be carried out prior to the beginning and after the end of the cycle and

the values averaged.

Checking the analysers

The emission analysers shall be set at zero and spanned. If sample bags are used, they shall be evacuated.

Cool-down requirements

A natural or forced cool-down procedure may be applied. For forced cool-down, good engineering judgement

shall be used to set up systems to send cooling air across the engine, to send cool oil through the engine

lubrication system, to remove heat from the coolant through the engine cooling system, and to remove heat

from an exhaust after-treatment system. In the case of a forced after-treatment cool down, cooling air shall

not be applied until the after-treatment system has cooled below its catalytic activation temperature. Any

cooling procedure that results in unrepresentative emissions is not permitted.

The cold start cycle exhaust emission test may begin after a cool-down only when the engine oil, coolant and

after-treatment temperatures are stabilised between 20 °C and 30 °C for a minimum of 15 minutes.

Cycle run

4.5.7.1. C o l d s t a r t c y c l e

The test sequence shall commence with the cold start cycle at the completion of the cool-down when all the

requirements specified in section 4.5.6 are met.

The engine shall be started according to the starting procedure recommended by the manufacturer in the

owner's manual, using either a production starter motor or the dynamometer.

As soon as it is determined that the engine is started, start a “free idle” timer. Allow the engine to idle freely

with no-load for 23 ± 1 s. Begin the transient engine cycle such that the first non-idle record of the cycle

occurs at 23 ± 1 s. The free idle time is included in the 23 ± 1 s.

The test shall be performed according to the reference cycle as set out in Annex III, Appendix 4. Engine speed

and torque command set points shall be issued at 5 Hz (10 Hz recommended) or greater. The set points shall

be calculated by linear interpolation between the 1 Hz set points of the reference cycle. Feedback engine speed

and torque shall be recorded at least once every second during the test cycle, and the signals may be

electronically filtered.

EN

Official Journal of the European Union

4.5.7.2. A n a l y s e r r e s p o n s e

At the start of the engine the measuring equipment shall be started, simultaneously

— start collecting or analysing dilution air, if a full flow dilution system is used,

— start collecting or analysing raw or diluted exhaust gas, depending on the method used,

— start measuring the amount of diluted exhaust gas and the required temperatures and pressures,

— start recording the exhaust gas mass flow rate, if raw exhaust gas analysis is used,

— start recording the feedback data of speed and torque of the dynamometer.

If raw exhaust measurement is used, the emission concentrations (HC, CO and NO x ) and the exhaust gas mass

flow rate shall be measured continuously and stored with at least 2 Hz on a computer system. All other data

may be recorded with a sample rate of at least 1 Hz. For analogue analysers the response shall be recorded,

and the calibration data may be applied online or offline during the data evaluation.

If a full flow dilution system is used, HC and NO x shall be measured continuously in the dilution tunnel with

a frequency of at least 2 Hz. The average concentrations shall be determined by integrating the analyser

signals over the test cycle. The system response time shall be no greater than 20 s, and shall be coordinated

with CVS flow fluctuations and sampling time/test cycle offsets, if necessary. CO and CO 2 shall be determined

by integration or by analysing the concentrations in the sample bag collected over the cycle. The concen­

trations of the gaseous pollutants in the dilution air shall be determined by integration or by collection in the

background bag. All other parameters that need to be measured shall be recorded with a minimum of one

measurement per second (1 Hz).

4.5.7.3. P a r t i c u l a t e s a m p l i n g

At the start of the engine the particulate sampling system shall be switched from by-pass to collecting

particulates.

If a partial flow dilution system is used, the sample pump(s) shall be adjusted so that the flow rate through

the particulate sample probe or transfer tube is maintained proportional to the exhaust mass flow rate.

If a full flow dilution system is used, the sample pump(s) shall be adjusted so that the flow rate through the

particulate sample probe or transfer tube is maintained at a value within ± 5 % of the set flow rate. If flow

compensation (i.e. proportional control of sample flow) is used, it must be demonstrated that the ratio of

main tunnel flow to particulate sample flow does not change by more than ± 5 % of its set value (except for

the first 10 seconds of sampling).

NOTE: For double dilution operation, sample flow is the net difference between the flow rate through the

sample filters and the secondary dilution airflow rate.

The average temperature and pressure at the gas meter(s) or flow instrumentation inlet shall be recorded. If

the set flow rate cannot be maintained over the complete cycle (within ± 5 %) because of high particulate

loading on the filter, the test shall be voided. The test shall be rerun using a lower flow rate and/or a larger

diameter filter.

4.5.7.4. E n g i n e s t a l l i n g d u r i n g t h e c o l d s t a r t t e s t c y c l e

If the engine stalls anywhere during the cold start test cycle, the engine shall be preconditioned, then the cool-

down procedure repeated; finally the engine shall be restarted, and the test repeated. If a malfunction occurs

in any of the required test equipment during the test cycle, the test shall be voided.

4.5.7.5. O p e r a t i o n s a f t e r c o l d s t a r t c y c l e

At the completion of the cold start cycle of the test, the measurement of the exhaust gas mass flow rate, the

diluted exhaust gas volume, the gas flow into the collecting bags and the particulate sample pump shall be

stopped. For an integrating analyser system, sampling shall continue until system response times have elapsed.

The concentrations of the collecting bags, if used, shall be analysed as soon as possible and in any case not

later than 20 minutes after the end of the test cycle.

EN

Official Journal of the European Union

B

After the emission test, a zero gas and the same span gas shall be used for re-checking the analysers. The test

will be considered acceptable if the difference between the pre-test and post-test results is less than 2 % of the

span gas value.

The particulate filters shall be returned to the weighing chamber no later than one hour after completion of

the test. They shall be conditioned in a petri dish, which is protected against dust contamination and allows

air exchange, for at least one hour, and then weighed. The gross weight of the filters shall be recorded.

4.5.7.6. H o t s o a k

Immediately after the engine is turned off, the engine cooling fan(s) shall be turned off if used, as well as the

CVS blower (or disconnect the exhaust system from the CVS), if used.

Allow the engine to soak for 20 ± 1 minutes. Prepare the engine and dynamometer for the hot start test.

Connect evacuated sample collection bags to the dilute exhaust and dilution air sample collection systems.

Start the CVS (if used or not already on) or connect the exhaust system to the CVS (if disconnected). Start the

sample pumps (except the particulate sample pump(s), the engine cooling fan(s) and the data collection

system.

The heat exchanger of the constant volume sampler (if used) and the heated components of any continuous

sampling system(s) (if applicable) shall be preheated to their designated operating temperatures before the test

begins.

Adjust the sample flow rates to the desired flow rate and set the CVS gas flow measuring devices to zero.

Carefully install a clean particulate filter in each of the filter holders and install assembled filter holders in the

sample flow line.

4.5.7.7. H o t s t a r t c y c l e

As soon as it is determined that the engine is started, start a “free idle” timer. Allow the engine to idle freely

with no-load for 23 ± 1 s. Begin the transient engine cycle such that the first non-idle record of the cycle

occurs at 23 ± 1 s. The free idle time is included in the 23 ± 1 s.

The test shall be performed according to the reference cycle as set out in Appendix 4 to Annex III. Engine

speed and torque command set points shall be issued at 5 Hz (10 Hz recommended) or greater. The set points

shall be calculated by linear interpolation between the 1 Hz set points of the reference cycle. Feedback engine

speed and torque shall be recorded at least once every second during the test cycle, and the signals may be

electronically filtered.

The procedure described in previous sections 4.5.7.2 and 4.5.7.3 shall then be repeated.

4.5.7.8. E n g i n e s t a l l i n g d u r i n g t h e h o t s t a r t c y c l e

If the engine stalls anywhere during the hot start cycle, the engine may be shut off and re-soaked for 20

minutes. The hot start cycle may then be rerun. Only one hot re-soak and hot start cycle restart is permitted.

4.5.7.9. O p e r a t i o n s a f t e r h o t s t a r t c y c l e

At the completion of the hot start cycle, the measurement of the exhaust gas mass flow rate, the diluted

exhaust gas volume, the gas flow into the collecting bags and the particulate sample pump shall be stopped.

For an integrating analyser system, sampling shall continue until system response times have elapsed.

The concentrations of the collecting bags, if used, shall be analysed as soon as possible and in any case not

later than 20 minutes after the end of the test cycle.

After the emission test, a zero gas and the same span gas shall be used for re-checking the analysers. The test

will be considered acceptable if the difference between the pre-test and post-test results is less than 2 % of the

span gas value.

The particulate filters shall be returned to the weighing chamber no later than one hour after completion of

the test. They shall be conditioned in a petri dish, which is protected against dust contamination and allows

air exchange, for at least one hour, and then weighed. The gross weight of the filters shall be recorded.’
