Division 6.5 Non-compliance of gaseous-fuelled engines

United Kingdom

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

In the case of dispute concerning compliance of gaseous-fuelled engines, including dual-fuel engines, when using a market fuel, the tests shall be performed with each reference fuel on which the parent engine has been tested, and, at the request of the manufacturer, with the possible additional third fuel, as referred to in points 2.3.1.1.1, 2.3.2.1 and 2.4.1.2 of Annex I, on which the parent engine may have been tested. When applicable, the result shall be converted by a calculation, applying the relevant factors ‘r’, ‘r a’ or ‘r b’ as described in points 2.3.3, 2.3.4.1 and 2.4.1.3 of Annex I. If r, r a or r b are less than 1, no correction shall take place. The measured results and, when applicable, the calculated results shall demonstrate that the engine meets the limit values with all relevant fuels (for example fuels 1, 2 and, if applicable, the third fuel in the case of natural gas/bio-methane engines, and fuels A and B in the case of LPG engines).
