# Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/654 of 19 December 2016 supplementing Regulation (EU) 2016/1628 of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to technical and general requirements relating to emission limits and type-approval for internal combustion engines for non-road mobile machinery, Division 5.2.5.2: Rated speed

Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

The rated speed is defined in Article 3(29) of Regulation (EU) 2016/1628. Rated speed for variable-speed engines subject to an emission test other than those tested on a constant-speed NRSC defined in Article 1(31) of this Regulation shall be determined from the applicable mapping procedure set out in point 7.6 of this Annex. Rated speed for variable-speed engines tested on a constant-speed NRSC shall be declared by the manufacturer according to the characteristics of the engine. Rated speed for constant-speed engines shall be declared by the manufacturer according to the characteristics of the governor. Where an engine type equipped with alternative speeds as permitted by Article 3(21) of Regulation (EU) 2016/1628 is subject to an emission test, each alternative speed shall be declared and tested.
If the rated speed determined from the mapping procedure in section 7.6 is within ± 150 rpm of the value declared by the manufacturer for engines of category NRS provided with governor, or within ± 350 rpm or ± 4 % for engines of category NRS without governor, whichever is smaller, or within ± 100 rpm for all other engine categories, the declared value may be used. If the tolerance is exceeded, the rated speed determined from the mapping procedure shall be used.
For engines of category NRSh the 100 % test speed shall be within ± 350 rpm of the rated speed declared by the manufacturer.
Optionally, MTS may be used instead of rated speed for any steady state test cycle.
