(a) Test handheld engines with the following steady-state duty cycle:
G3 mode No. | Engine speed a | Torque (percent) b | Weighting factors |
---|---|---|---|
1 | Rated speed | 100 | 0.85 |
2 | Warm idle | 0 | 0.15 |
a Test engines at the specified speeds as described in §1054.505. | |||
b Test engines at 100 percent torque by setting operator demand to maximum. Control torque during idle at its warm idle speed as described in 40 CFR 1065.510. |
(b) Test nonhandheld engines with one of the following steady-state duty cycles:
(1) The following duty cycle applies for engines designed to idle:
G2 Mode No. a | Torque (percent) b | Weighting factors |
---|---|---|
1 | 100 | 0.09 |
2 | 75 | 0.20 |
3 | 50 | 0.29 |
4 | 25 | 0.30 |
5 | 10 | 0.07 |
6 | 0 | 0.05 |
a Control engine speed as described in §1054.505. Control engine speed for Mode 6 as described in §1054.505(c) for idle operation. | ||
b The percent torque is relative to the value established for full-load torque, as described in §1054.505. |
(2) The following duty cycle applies for engines that are not designed to idle:
Mode No. a | Torque (percent) b | Weighting factors |
---|---|---|
1 | 100 | 0.09 |
2 | 75 | 0.21 |
3 | 50 | 0.31 |
4 | 25 | 0.32 |
5 | 10 | 0.07 |
a Control engine speed as described in §1054.505. | ||
b The percent torque is relative to the value established for full-load torque, as described in §1054.505. |
