1.2.b. The approval authority ensuring the compliance with this Regulation shall be either:

(a) 

the approval authority that granted the type-approval of the engine type or engine family, in case that the ISM Group contains a single type-approval;

(b) 

the approval authority that granted the type-approval of several engine types and/or engine families within the same ISM Group;

(c) 

in the case that the ISM Group contains engine types, and/or engine families, approved by different approval authorities, the approval authority designated by all approval authorities involved.

▼B

1.3.

Engines subject to in-service monitoring test shall:

(a) 

be installed in one of the most representative categories of non-road mobile machinery for the selected engine type or, where applicable, engine family;

▼M2 —————

▼B

(c)

Engines with an Electronic Control Unit (ECU) and a communication interface intended to provide the necessary data as specified in Appendix 7, but with a missing interface or missing data, or where it is not possible to achieve clear identification and validation of the necessary signals, shall not be eligible for in-service monitoring test, and an alternative engine shall be selected.

The approval authority shall not accept the absence of an ECU or interface, or absent or invalid signals, or lack of conformity of the ECU torque signal, as a reason to reduce the number of engines to be tested under this Regulation.

▼B

1.5.

Engines where the collection of ECU data influences the non-road mobile machinery gaseous pollutant emissions or performance shall be considered as non-eligible for in-service monitoring test. Notwithstanding the requirements of article 39 of Regulation (EU) 2016/1628, an alternative engine shall only be selected if the manufacturer can substantially prove to the approval authority the absence of any defeat strategy.

2.    Plan for monitoring in-service engines

▼M2

2.1.

The manufacturer shall submit the initial plan for monitoring each ISM Group to the approval authority within:

(a) 

for ISM Group A, one month of the start of production of any engine type or engine family within the ISM Group;

(b) 

for any other ISM Group, the later date of the following:

(i) 

26 June 2023;

(ii) 

1 month after the start of production of any engine type or engine family within the ISM Group.

2.2.

The initial plan shall include the list of engine types and engine families in the ISM Group, together with the criteria used for and the justification of the selection of:

▼B

(a) 

the engine families or engine types and category(ies) of non-road mobile machinery included in the plan;

(b) 

the list of particular engine(s) and non-road mobile machinery selected for in-service monitoring test, if already identified;

(c) 

the chosen testing scheme.

▼M2

2.3.

Manufacturers shall submit to the approval authority an updated plan for monitoring in-service engines whenever the list of engine families in the ISM Group changes or the list of particular engine(s) and non-road mobile machinery selected is completed or revised. The updated plan shall include a justification of the criteria used for the selection and the reasons for revising the previous list, if applicable. Where the number of engine families in the ISM Group or the annual production volume for the Union market changes, the plan with the number of tests to be executed in accordance with point 2.6, shall also be adjusted accordingly.

▼B

2.4.

The approval authority shall approve the initial and subsequently updated plan(s) or request the appropriate amendments within 2 months of their submission, and shall ensure that the final plan includes the widest variety of engine types and categories of non-road mobile machinery.

2.5.

Each initial or subsequently updated monitoring plan shall be approved by the approval authority before the testing of engines and non-road mobile machinery identified therein is started.

▼M2

2.6.

Criteria for selection of engines to be tested

The number of engines to be tested refers to the ISM group, and not to the engine sub-categories, engine families or engine types belonging to ISM group.

The manufacturer shall select engines that represent, in a balanced manner, the sub-categories, engine families and engine types belonging to the ISM group. This should not necessarily imply testing engines belonging to each engine sub-category, engine family or engine type.

For ISM groups containing both category IWP and IWA the engine selection shall include, to the extent possible, engines of both categories.

2.6.1.   Testing scheme for ISM group A

The manufacturer shall choose one of the following testing schemes described in points 2.6.1.1 and in 2.6.1.2 for in-service monitoring.

2.6.1.1.   Testing scheme based on the Emission Durability Period (EDP)

▼C1

2.6.1.1.1. Testing 9 engines from the ISM group with an accumulated service of less than a % of the EDP, in accordance with Table 2. Test results shall be submitted to the approval authority by 28 December 2024.

2.6.1.1.2. Testing 9 engines from the ISM group with an accumulated service higher than b % of the EDP, in accordance with Table 2. Test reports shall be submitted to the approval authority by 28 December 2026.

▼M2

2.6.1.1.3. When the manufacturer cannot fulfil the requirement under point 2.6.1.1 due to unavailability of engines with the required service accumulation of point 2.6.1.1.2, the approval authority may permit testing of engines under this point with an accumulated service between 2 times a % and b % of the EDP, subject to the manufacturer providing robust evidence that they have selected engines with the highest available service accumulation. As an alternative, the approval authority shall accept a change to the testing scheme based on a 4-year period set out in point 2.6.1.2. In that case, the total number of engines to be tested under point 2.6.1.2 shall be reduced by the number of engines already tested and reported in accordance with point 2.6.1.1.

▼M2

1.    Test Parameters

1.1. The gaseous pollutant emissions to be measured and recorded during the in-service monitoring test are carbon monoxide (CO), total hydrocarbons (HC) and nitrogen oxides (NOx). Additionally, carbon dioxide (CO2) shall be measured to enable the calculation procedures described in Appendix 5.

In that case, when performing the calculations set out in Appendix 5 the instantaneous mass flow rate of emissions from the measured stack shall be multiplied by the total number of stacks to obtain the total instantaneous mass flow rate of emissions for the engine.

1.3. The parameters set out in the Table shall be measured and recorded at a data sampling period of 1 second or less during the in-service monitoring test:

Where the available data stream uses different units to those required by the table, that data stream shall be transformed into the required units during the data pre-processing set out in Appendix 3.

(2)   

Measured or corrected to a wet basis.

(3)   

Direct measurement of exhaust mass flow shall be used unless one of the following is applicable:


(a)  the exhaust system installed in the non-road mobile machinery results in dilution of the exhaust by air upstream of the location where an EFM could be installed. In that case the exhaust sample shall be taken upstream of the point of dilution;

(b)  the exhaust system installed in the non-road mobile machinery diverts a portion of the exhaust to another part of the non-road mobile machinery (e.g. for heating) upstream of the location where an EFM could be installed;

(c)  the engine to be tested is of a reference power greater than 560 kW or is installed in an inland waterway vessel or a railway vehicle and the manufacturer demonstrates to the approval authority that installation of an EFM is impractical due to either the size or location of the exhaust on the NRMM;

(d)  engines of category SMB and the manufacturer demonstrates to the approval authority that installation of an EFM is impractical due to location of the exhaust on the NRMM.


In those cases, where the manufacturer is able to provide robust evidence to the approval authority of the correlation between the fuel mass flow estimated by the ECU and the fuel mass flow measured on the engine dynamometer test bench, the EFM may be omitted and indirect exhaust flow measurements (from fuel and intake air flows or fuel flow and carbon balance) may be applied.

Valid measured data for gaseous pollutant emissions calculations shall start after the engine coolant temperature has reached 343 K (70 °C) for the first time or after the engine coolant temperature is stabilised within +/– 2 K over a period of 5 minutes, or after the engine coolant temperature is stabilised within +/– 5 K over a period of 5 minutes for tests performed at ambient temperature equal or below 273,15 K, whichever comes first; in any case, it shall start no later than 20 minutes after starting the engine.

2.4.2.   Air-cooled engines

Valid measured data for gaseous pollutant emissions calculations shall start after the temperature measured at the reference point identified in point 3.7.2.2.1 of PART C of Appendix 3 of Annex I to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/656 is stabilised within +/– 5 % over a period of 5 minutes; in any case, it shall start no later than 20 minutes after starting the engine.

3.    Drift correction

3.1.   Maximum drift allowed

Drifts of the zero response and the span response shall be less than 2 % of full scale on the lowest range used:

(a) 

if the difference between the pre-test and post-test results is less than 2 %, the measured concentrations may be used uncorrected or may be corrected for drift in accordance with point 3.2;

(b) 

if the difference between the pre-test and post-test results is equal to or greater than 2 %, the measured concentrations shall be drift corrected in accordance with point 3.2. If no correction is made, the test shall be considered void.

3.2.   Drift correction

3.2.1. The drift corrected concentration value shall be calculated in accordance with the requirements set out in Sections 2.1 or 3.5 of Annex VII to Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/654.

3.2.2. The difference between the uncorrected and the corrected brake-specific gaseous pollutant emission values shall be within ± 6 % of the uncorrected brake-specific gaseous pollutant emission values. If the drift is greater than 6 %, the test shall be considered void.

3.2.2.1. Each brake-specific gaseous pollutant emission value shall be calculated from the integrated mass of gaseous pollutant emission of the test sequence divided by the total work performed during the test sequence. That calculation shall be performed prior to determination of working events in accordance with Appendix 4 or calculation of gaseous pollutant emissions in accordance with Appendix 5.

3.2.3. If drift correction is applied, only the drift-corrected gaseous pollutant emission results shall be used when reporting gaseous pollutant emissions.

4.    Time alignment

To minimise the biasing effect of the time lag between the different signals on the calculations of the mass of the gaseous pollutant emissions, the data relevant for gaseous pollutant emissions calculations shall be time aligned, in accordance with the requirements set out in points 4.1 to 4.4.

4.1.   Gas analysers data

4.4.   Procedure for improved time alignment of the PEMS data

The test parameters listed in the Table of Appendix 2 are split into three different categories:

Category 1: Gas analysers (HC, CO, CO2, NOx concentrations);
Category 2: EFM (Exhaust mass flow and exhaust temperature);
Category 3: Engine (Torque, speed, temperatures, fuel rate from ECU).

The time alignment of each category with the other two categories shall be verified by finding the highest correlation coefficient between two series of test parameters. All the test parameters in a category shall be shifted to maximise the correlation factor. The following test parameters shall be used to calculate the correlation coefficients:

(a) 

Categories 1 and 2 (Gas analysers and EFM data) with Category 3 (Engine data): the exhaust mass flow from the EFM with torque from the ECU;

(b) 

Category 1 with Category 2: the CO2 concentration and the exhaust mass flow;

(c) 

Category 1 with Category 3: the CO2 concentration and the engine fuel flow.

4.4.1. In the case of engines not designed to have a communication interface to permit the collection of the ECU data as specified in Appendix 7 the correlation at point 4.4, sub-points (a) and (c) shall be omitted.

4.4.2. In the case of engines for which direct measurement of exhaust mass flow was omitted in accordance with note (3) to the Table of Appendix 2 the correlation at point 4.4, sub-point (a) shall be omitted.

5.    Data consistency check

5.1.   Gas analysers and EFM data

For engines designed to have a communication interface capable to provide fuel flow in accordance with Table 2 of Appendix 7 the consistency of the data (exhaust mass flow measured by the EFM and gas concentrations) shall be verified using a correlation between the measured engine fuel flow from the ECU and the engine fuel flow calculated in accordance with the procedure set out in Section 2.1.6.4 of Annex VII to Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/654.

A linear regression shall be performed for the measured and calculated fuel rate values. The method of least squares shall be used, with the best fit equation having the form:

y = mx + b

Where:

(a) y

is the calculated fuel flow [g/s];

(b) m

is the slope of the regression line;

(c) x

is the measured fuel flow [g/s];

(d) b

is the y intercept of the regression line.

The slope (m) and the coefficient of determination (r2) shall be calculated for each regression line. It is recommended to perform this analysis in the range from 15 % of the maximum value to the maximum value and at a frequency greater or equal to 1 Hz. For a test to be considered valid, the following two criteria shall be evaluated:



Table 1

Tolerances

Slope of the regression line, m

Coefficient of determination, r2

Min. 0,90 – Mandatory

5.2.   ECU torque data

Where ECU torque data is to be used in the calculations the consistency of the ECU torque data shall be verified by comparing the maximum ECU torque values at different (if appropriate) engine speeds with the corresponding values on the official engine full load torque curve and in accordance with Appendix 6.

5.3.   Brake-Specific Fuel Consumption (BSFC)

Where ECU data is available the BSFC shall be checked using:

(a) 

the fuel consumption calculated from the gaseous pollutant emissions data (gas analysers concentrations and exhaust mass flow data), in accordance with the procedure set out in Section 2.1.6.4 of Annex VII to Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/654;

(b) 

the work calculated using the data from the ECU (Engine torque and engine speed).

5.4.   Ambient pressure

The ambient pressure value shall be checked against the altitude indicated by the GPS data, if available.

5.5.   The approval authority may consider the test void if it is not satisfied with the results of the data consistency check.

6.    Dry-wet correction

If the concentration is measured on a dry basis, it shall be converted to a wet basis in accordance with the procedure set out in Section 2 or 3 of Annex VII to Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/654.

7.    NOx correction for humidity and temperature

The NOx concentrations measured by the gas analysers shall not be corrected for ambient air temperature and humidity.

Appendix 4

Algorithm for the determination of valid events during in-service monitoring

1.    General provisions

1.1.

For the purposes of this Appendix ‘event’ means the data measured in an in-service monitoring test for the gaseous pollutant emissions calculations obtained in a time increment Δt equal to the data sampling period,

1.2.

The methodology set out in this Appendix is based on the concept of working and non-working events.

1.3.

Any event considered as a non-working event in accordance with this Appendix shall not be considered as valid for the calculations of the work or CO2 mass and the gaseous pollutant emissions and conformity factors of the averaging windows set out in Section 2 of Appendix 5. Only working events shall be used for the purpose of calculations.

1.4.

Non-working events shall be categorised as short non-working events (≤ D2) and long non-working events (> D2) (see the Table for the value of D2).

▼M2

2.    Procedure to determine non-working events

2.1. Non-working events are those where either:

(a) 

for engines not designed to have a communication interface capable to provide torque and speed data in accordance with Table 1 of Appendix 7, the instantaneous proxy power determined in accordance with the procedure set-out in Appendix 10; or

(b) 

in all other cases, the instantaneous engine power,

is below 10 % of the engine reference power, as defined in Article 3, point (26) of Regulation (EU) 2016/1628 and listed in Annex I to that Regulation for each engine (sub-)category, for the engine type subject to ISM test.

2.1.1. For engines tested under this Regulation that are not designed to have a communication interface capable to provide torque and speed data in accordance with Table 1 of Appendix 7 the instantaneous proxy power shall be calculated using the procedure described in Appendix 10 prior to applying the procedure in this Appendix.

2.2. The following additional steps shall be conducted:

2.2.1. Non-working events shorter than D0 shall be considered as working events and merged with the surrounding working events (see Table 2 for the values of D0).

2.2.2. Working events shorter than D0 surrounded by non-working events of duration longer than D1 shall be considered non-working events and merged with the surrounding non-working events (see Table 2 for the values of D1)

2.2.3. The take-off phase following long non-working events (> D2) for engines equipped with an after-treatment device used for NOx reduction and exhaust gas temperature measurement in accordance with note (4) to the Table of Appendix 2 shall also be considered as a non-working event until the exhaust gas temperature reaches 523 K. If the exhaust gas temperature does not reach 523 K within D3 minutes, all events after D3 shall be considered as working events (see Table 2 for the values of D2 and D3).

2.2.4. For all non-working events, the first D1 minutes of the event shall be considered as working event.

3.    ‘Machine work’ marking algorithm to implement the requirements of point 2

Point 2 shall be implemented in the sequence set out in points 3.1 to 3.4

3.1.   Step 1: Detect and split into working events and non-working events.

(a) 

identify the working events and non-working events in accordance with point 2.1;

(b) 

calculate the duration of non-working events;

(c) 

mark the non-working events shorter than D0 as working events;

(d) 

calculate the duration of the working events.

3.2.   Step 2: Merge short working events (≤ D0) into non-working events.

Mark as non-working events those working events shorter than D0 that are both preceded and followed by remaining non-working events of duration longer than D1.

3.3.   Step 3: Exclude working events after long non-working events (take-off phase).

Where point 2.2.3 is applicable, mark as non-working events those working events after long non-working events (> D2) until either;

(a) 

the exhaust gas temperature reaches 523 K; or

(b) 

D3 minutes have elapsed;

whatever happens first.

3.4.   Step 4: Include non-working events after working events.

Include D1 minutes of non-working event following any working event as part of that working event.

— 
Wref is the engine reference work determined according to point 2.1.2, kWh,
— 
t 2, i shall be selected such that:

W(t 2, i – Δt) – W(t 1, i) < W ref W(t 2, i)W(t 1, i)

Where Δt is the data sampling period, equal to 1 second or less.

2.2.1.   Calculations of the brake specific gaseous pollutant emissions

Appendix 6

Conformity of the ECU torque signal

1.    Maximum torque method

1.1.

The maximum torque method consists on confirming that a point on the reference maximum torque curve as a function of the engine speed has been reached during the in-service monitoring test.

1.2.

If a point on the reference maximum torque curve as a function of the engine speed has not been reached during the in-service monitoring test, the manufacturer is entitled to modify the load activity of the non-road mobile machinery and/or the minimum test duration set out in point 2 of Appendix 2 as necessary in order to perform that demonstration after the in-service monitoring test.

1.3.

The requirements set out in point 1.2 shall not be applied in the case that, in the opinion of the manufacturer and prior agreement of the type approval authority, it is not possible to reach a point on the maximum torque curve under normal operation without overloading the engine installed in the non-road mobile machinery, or to do so would not be safe.

1.4.

In this case, the manufacturer shall propose to the approval authority an alternative method for checking the signal. The alternative method shall be employed only if the approval authority considers it feasible and applicable without overloading the engine or any safety risk.

1.5.

The manufacturer may propose to the approval authority, a more accurate and complete method for checking the conformity of the ECU torque signal during the in-service monitoring test than the method set out in points 1.1 to 1.4. In that case, the method proposed by the manufacturer shall be used instead of the method set out in those points.

▼M2

2.    Impossibility to check the conformity of the ECU torque signal

When the manufacturer demonstrates to the approval authority that it is not possible to check the ECU torque signal during the in-service monitoring test, the verification performed in accordance with the requirements of Appendix 3 of Annex VI to Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/654 during the tests required for EU type- approval and stated in the EU type-approval certificate shall be accepted by the approval authority.

For engines in ISM groups other than A, C and H, the approval authority may accept a separate demonstration conducted in accordance with the requirements of Appendix 3 of Annex VI to Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/654 but using the following mapping procedures of that Annex:

(a) 

for engines in ISM group I, and variable speed engines in ISM groups E, F, G, J, K, L, M and N, Section 7.6.1;

(b) 

for all other engines, Section 7.6.3.

Where mapping is performed at constant speed in accordance with sub-point (b), it shall be sufficient to measure and compare the readings of the torque measured by the dynamometer and the torque broadcast by the ECU at the single point of rated net power.

Appendix 9

Determination of reference work and reference CO2 mass for engine types for which the applicable type-approval test cycle is solely a Non-Road Steady-State Cycle (NRSC)

1.    General

The reference work and reference mass of CO2 for ISM groups A and C are taken from hot-start NRTC run of the type-approval test of the parent engine, and for ISM group H from the LSI-NRTC type-approval test of the parent engine, as set out in point 2.1.2 of Appendix 5. This Appendix defines how to determine the reference work and reference mass of CO2 for engine types in all ISM groups except A, C and H.

For the purpose of this Appendix the applicable laboratory test cycle shall be the discrete-mode NRSC or RMC NRSC for the corresponding engine (sub-)category set out in tables IV-1 and IV-2, and tables IV-5 to IV-10 of Annex IV to Regulation (EU) 2016/1628.

2.    Determination of Wref and image from RMC NRSC

2.1. The reference work Wref ,kWh, is equal to the actual work Wact ,kWh, as given by Section 2.4.1.1 of Annex VII to Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/654 on technical and general requirements.

2.2. The reference mass of CO2,
image , g, is equal to the mass of CO2 for the laboratory test cycle
image , g, calculated in accordance with one of Sections 2.1.2, 2.2.1, 3.5.1 or 3.6.1 of Annex VII to Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/654 on technical and general requirements according to whether raw or dilute gaseous sampling is used and whether mass-based or molar-based calculation is applied.

3.    Determination of Wref and image from discrete-mode NRSC

3.1. The reference work Wref , kWh shall be calculated using equation 9-1.

Appendix 10

Determination of the instantaneous proxy power from CO2 mass flow

1.    General

‘Proxy power’ means a value obtained by simple linear interpolation for the sole purpose of the determination of valid events during in-service monitoring as described in Appendix 4. This methodology is for engines designed without a communication interface capable to provide torque and speed data in accordance with Table 1 of Appendix 7. The calculation is based upon the assumption that, for all engine types within an engine family:

(a) 

the ratio of work and CO2 mass on the reference laboratory test cycle are similar;

(b) 

there is a linear relationship between power and CO2 mass flow rate; and

(c) 

an operating engine that produces no net power emits no CO2.

2.    Calculation of the instantaneous proxy power

2.1. For the sole purpose of the calculations in Appendix 4, an instantaneous power for the engine under ISM test shall be computed from the measured CO2 mass flow at a time increment equal to the data sampling period. For this calculation a simplified engine-family-specific CO2 (‘Veline’) constant shall be used.

2.2. The Veline constant shall be calculated from the applicable reference values set out in point 2.1.2 of Appendix 5.

The Veline constant, Kveline, is computed from the reference mass of CO2 emitted by the parent engine at type-approval divided by the work performed by the parent engine at type-approval using equation 10-1.

image

(10-1)

Where:

Kveline

is the ‘Veline’ constant, g/kWh;

image

is the reference mass of CO2 emitted by the parent engine in the reference laboratory test cycle, g;

W ref

is the reference work performed by the parent engine in the reference laboratory test cycle, kWh.

2.3. The instantaneous proxy power of the engine under ISM test is calculated from the instantaneous CO2 mass flow using equation 10-2

image

(10-2)

Where:

Pi,proxy

is the instantaneous proxy power, kW;

image

is the instantaneous mass flow of CO2 emitted by the engine under test, g/s.
