(b) Method. Loaded-mode inspection for the first two phases of the driving cycle described in Table I is conducted by measuring the levels of emission concentrations from each exhaust outlet of a motor vehicle operated on a chassis dynamometer, with the vehicle's transmission in the setting recommended by the vehicle manufacturer for the speed-load combination being tested. For the idle phase, vehicles with automatic transmissions are tested in drive, and vehicles with standard transmissions are tested in neutral.

§ 590.8 Inspection conditions.

(a) The vehicle engine is at its normal operating temperature, as specified by the vehicle manufacturer.

(b) An engine speed indicator with a graduated scale from zero to at least 2500 rpm is used for the unloaded inspection procedure.

(c) The equipment used for analyzing the emission concentration levels(1) Has a warm-up period not to exceed 30 minutes;

(2) Is able to withstand sustained periods of continuous use;

(3) Has a direct and continuous meter readout that allows readings for concentration levels of carbon monoxide (CO) from 0-10 mole percent, and of hydrocarbon (HC) from 0-2000 ppm of hexane; and if used for the loadedmode inspection, has at least one additional expanded direct and continuous readout for concentration levels of carbon monoxide and of hydrocarbon, such as from 0-5 mole percent and from 0-1000 ppm as hexane respectively;

(4) Has an accuracy of better than +5 percent of the full scale reading for each concentration range;

(5) Permits a reading for each emission concentration level, within 10 seconds after the emission sample has been taken, that is not less than 90 percent of the final reading; and

(6) Has a calibration system using a standard gas, or an equivalent mechanical or electrical calibration system which itself is based on a standard gas.
