VEHICLE INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE PROGRAM 

PART A 

GENERAL REQUIREMENTS AND APPLICABILITY 

1. General Requirements 

Federal JIM Program requirements: Utah was previously required by Section 182 and 

Section 187 of the Clean Air Act to implement and maintain an Inspection and 

Maintenance (I/M) program in Davis, Salt Lake, Utah, and Weber counties that met the 

minimum requirements of 40 code of federal regulation (CFR) Part 51 Subpart S and that 

was at least as effective as the EPA's Basic Performance Standard as specified in 40 CFR 

51.352. The Basic Performance Standard requirement is no longer applicable as the 

relevant nonattainment areas in Davis, Salt Lake, Utah, and Weber counties have been 

redesignated to attainment I maintenance for the carbon monoxide (CO) National 

Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) and the I-hour ozone NAAQS. Parts A, B, C, 

D, and E of Section X, together with the referenced appendices, continue to demonstrate 

compliance with the 40 CFR Part 51 provisions for Inspection and Maintenance Program 

Requirements for Davis, Salt Lake, Utah, and Weber counties and produce mobile source 

emission reductions that are sufficient to demonstrate continued maintenance of the 

applicable CO and I-hour ozone NAAQS. In addition, the Cache, Davis, Salt Lake, Utah, 

and Weber counties' I/M programs are also utilized as a control measure to attain and 

maintain EPA's particulate NAAQS (PM2 5 and PM10) . 

On-Board Diagnostics (OBD) Checks: By January I, 2002, OBD checks and OBDrelated repairs are required as a routine component of Utah l/M programs on model year 

I 996 and newer light-duty vehicles and light-duty trucks equipped with certified onboard diagnostic systems. The federal performance standard requires repair of 

malfunctions or system deterioration identified by or affecting OBD systems. 

Utah JIM program history and general authority: The legal authority for Utah's I/M 

programs, Utah Code Annotated Section 41-6-163 .6 1

, was enacted during the First 

Special Session of the Utah legislature in 1983. I/M programs were initially implemented 

by Davis and Salt Lake counties in 1984, by Utah County in 1986, and by Weber County 

in I 990. 

In 1990, the legislature enacted Section 41-6-163. 72 that requires that counties with I/M 

programs use computerized I/M testing equipment, adopt standardized emission 

standards, and provide for reciprocity. Those requirements were fully implemented by 

Davis, Salt Lake, and Utah counties on September 1, I991 , and by Weber County on 

January 1, 1992. 

I Renumbered and recodified in 2005 at Utah Code Annotated 4 l-6a-I 642 

2 Renumbered and recodified in 2005 at Utah Code Annotated 4 1-6a-I 643 

Section X, Part A, page I 
Section 41-6-163.6 was again amended by the legislature in 1992 to include vehicles 

owned and operated by the federal government, federal employees, and students and 

employees of colleges and universities. The 1992 revision of 41-6-163 .6 also established 

more stringent restrictions for vehicles that qualify for a farm truck exemption. 

Section 41-6-163.6 requires that, if identified as necessary to attain or maintain any 

NAAQS, a county must create an 1/M program that follows the criteria outlined in 41-6-

163 .6. Once a county enacts regulations or ordinances, amendments to Section 19-2-104 

in 1992 authorized the Utah Air Quality Board to formally establish those requirements 

for county l/M programs after obtaining agreement from the affected counties. Section 

41-6-163.6 was also amended to allow the counties to subject individual motor vehicles 

to inspection and maintenance at times other than the annual inspection. 

Section 41-6-163 .6 was amended in 1994 to authorize implementation of I/M programs 

stricter than minimum federal requirements in counties where it is necessary to attain or 

maintain ambient air quality standards. Section 41-6-163 .6 requires preference be given 

to a decentralized program to the extent that a decentralized program will attain and 

maintain ambient air quality standards and meet federal requirements. It also requires 

affected counties and the Air Quality Board to give preference to the most cost effective 

means to achieve and maintain the maximum benefit with regard to air quality standards 

and to meet federal air quality requirements related to motor vehicles. The legislature 

indicated preference for a reasonable phase-out period for replacement of air pollution 

test equipment made obsolete by an I/M program in accordance with applicable federal 

requirements and if such a phase-out does not otherwise interfere with attainment of 

ambient air quality standards. 

House Concurrent Resolution No. 9 of the 1994 General Session of the legislature 

(H.C.R. 9) was a concurrent resolution of the legislature and the governor expressing 

opposition to the EPA position regarding the implementation of enhanced vehicle 

inspection and urging the EPA to recognize the benefits of other vehicle inspection 

program options and to work with the state to develop workable plans for attaining 

ambient air quality standards and protecting public health. 

In 1995, the legislature amended Section 41-6-163.7 to rescind the requirement for I/M 

program standardization and reciprocity between counties. While advantageous, 

standardization and reciprocity between I/M counties is no longer required, and each I/M 

county is free to develop an I/M program that best meets the respective county's needs. 

In 2002, the Legislature amended Section 41-6-163.7 to allow for inspection every other 

year for cars that are six years old or newer on January I each year. This provision is 

applicable to the extent allowed under the current state implementation plan for each 

area. 

In 2005, the Legislature renumbered Section 41-6-163.6 and re-codified it as Section 41-

6a-1642. The Legislature also amended Section 4 l -6a-l 642 to allow counties with an 

Section X, Part A, page 2 
I/M program to require college students and employees who park a motor vehicle on 

college or university campus that is not registered in a county subject to emission 

inspection to provide proof of compliance with an emission inspection. 

Section 41 6a-l 642 was amended in 2008 to provide an exemption for vintage vehicles, 

which are defined in Section 41-21-1. Section 41 6a-l 642 was again amended in 2009 to 

provide an exemption for custom vehicles, which are defined in Section 41-6a-1507. 

In 2010, the legislature enacted Section 41-1 a-1223 that allows counties with an I/M 

program to impose a local emissions compliance fee of up to three dollars. This same bill 

amended Section 41-6a-l 642 to require I/M counties that impose the fee to use revenues 

generated from the fee to establish and enforce an emission inspection and maintenance 

program. 

Section 41-6a-1642 was amended in 2011 to require I/M counties' regulations and 

ordinances to be compliant with the analyzer design and certification requirements 

contained in the SIP. 

In 2012, the Legislature amended Section 4 l-6a-l 642 to allow a motor vehicle that is less 

than two years old as of January 1 of any given year to be exempt from being required to 

obtain an emission inspection. This provision is applicable to the extent allowed under 

the current SIP for each area. This bill went into effect on October 1, 2012. In addition, 

the legislature also amended Section 41-1 a-205 to allow a safety and emissions 

inspection issued for a motor vehicle during the previous 11 months may be used to 

satisfy the safety and emissions inspection requirements3

. The effective date of this bill is 

January 1, 2013. The legislature also amended Section 41-la-1223 to allow the counties 

to collect a $2.25 fee for those vehicles that are registered for a six-month period under 

Utah Code Annotated 41-la-215.5. The effective date ofthis bill is July 1, 2013. 

2. Applicability 

General Applicability: Utah Code Annotated 4 l-6a- l 642 gives authority to each county 

to implement and manage an I/M program to attain and maintain any national ambient air 

quality standard (NAAQS). Davis, Salt Lake, Utah, and Weber counties were required 

under Section 182 and 187 of the Clean Air Act to implement an I/M program to attain 

and maintain the ozone and carbon monoxide NAAQS. All of Utah's ozone and carbon 

monoxide maintenance areas are located in Davis, Salt Lake, Utah, and Weber counties. 

In addition, a motor vehicle I/M program is a control measure for attaining the particulate 

matter NAAQS in Cache, Davis, Salt Lake, Utah, and Weber counties. Utah's SIP for 

I/M is applicable county-wide in Cache, Davis, Salt Lake, Utah, and Weber counties. 

3 Utah Code 41 -6a-1642(7) states that "the emissions inspecti on shall be required within the same time limit applicable to a safety inspecti on 

under Section 41- l a-205 ." 

Section X, Part A, page 3 
3. General Summary 

Below is a general summary of Utah 's I/M programs. Part B, C, D, E and F of this 

section of the SIP provide a more specific summary ofl/M programs for Cache, Davis, 

Salt Lake, Utah, and Weber counties. These parts also incorporate the individual county 

I/M ordinances/regulations and policies that provide for the enforceability of the 

respective I/M programs. 

Network Type: All Utah I/M programs are comprised of a decentralized, test-and-repair 

network. 

l/Mprogramfunding requirements: Counties with I/M programs allocate funding as 

needed to comply with the relevant requirements specified in Utah's SIP; the Utah 

statutes; county ordinances, regulations and policies; and the federal I/M program 

regulation. Program budgets include funding for resources necessary to adequately 

manage the programs conduct covert and overt audits, including repairs; assist and 

educate inspectors, station owners, and the public; manage, analyze, and report data; 

ensure compliance with the program by inspectors, stations, and vehicle owners; and 

evaluate and upgrade the programs. 

Funding mechanisms: Utah's I/M programs are funded through several mechanisms 

including, but not limited to, a fee which is collected at the time ofregistration by the 

Utah Tax Commission Division of Motor Vehicles or the county Assessor's Office. Those 

monies are remitted to the county in which the vehicle is registered. The collection of 

fees for various permitting activities and the selling inspection certificates to inspection 

stations are the other mechanisms. A fee schedule can be found in an appendix to each 

county I/M ordinance or regulation. 

Government fleet: Section 41-6a-1642(1 )(b) of the Utah Code requires that all vehicles 

owned or operated in the I/M counties by federal, state, or local government entities 

comply with the I/M programs. 

Vehicles owned by students andfederal employees: Section 41-6a-1642(5) provides a 

provision that counties may require universities and colleges located in Utah's I/M areas 

to require proof of compliance with the I/M program for vehicles which are permitted to 

park on campus regardless of where the vehicle is registered. Vehicles operated by 

federal employees and operated on a federal installation located within an I/M program 

area are also subject to the I/M program regardless of where they are registered. Proof of 

compliance consists of a current vehicle registration in an I/M program area, an l/M 

certificate of compliance or waiver, or evidence of exempt vehicle status. 

Rental vehicles: All vehicles available for rent or use in an I/M county are subject to the 

county I/M program. To the extent practicable, all vehicles principally operated in the 

county are subject to the I/M program. 

Section X, Part A, page 4 
Farm truck exemption: Eligibility for the farm truck exemption from the l/M programs is 

specified in Section 41-6a-1642(4) and must be verified in writing by county l/M 

program staff. 

Out-of-state exemption: Vehicles registered in an l/M county but operated out-of-state 

are eligible for an exemption. The owner must complete Utah State Tax Commission 

form TC-810 in order to be registered without inspection documentation. The owner 

must explain why the vehicle is unavailable for inspection in Utah. Common situations 

include Utah citizens that are military personnel stationed outside of the state, students 

attending institutions of higher education elsewhere, and people serving religious 

assignments outside the area. If the temporary address of the owner is located within 

another l/M program area listed on the back of the form, the owner must submit proof of 

compliance with that l/M program at the time of, and as a condition precedent to, 

registration or renewal of registration. The vehicle owner must identify his or her 

anticipated date of return to the state and is required to have the vehicle inspected within 

ten days after the vehicle is back in Utah. 

Motorist Compliance Enforcement Mechanism: The l/M programs are registrationenforced on a county-wide basis. A certificate of emissions inspection or a waiver or 

other evidence that the vehicle is exempt from the l/M program requirements must be 

presented at the time of, and as a condition precedent to, registration or renewal of 

registration of a motor vehicles as specified in Section 41-6a-1642(l)(a). Owners of 

vehicles operated without valid license plates or with expired license plates are subject to 

ticketing by peace officers at any time. Proof of compliance consists of a current vehicle 

registration in an I/M program area or an l/M certificate of compliance or waiver, or 

evidence of exempt vehicle status. 

Valid registration required: A certificate of emissions inspection or a waiver or other 

evidence that the vehicle is exempt from the l/M program requirements must be 

presented at the time of, and as a condition precedent to, registration or renewal of 

registration ofa motor vehicles as specified in Section 41-6a-1642 and 41-la-203(1)(c). 

The I/M inspection is required within two months prior to the month the registration 

renewal is due as specified in Section 41-6a-1642(7) and 41-la-205(2)(a). Owners of 

vehicles operated without valid license plates or with expired license plates are subject to 

ticketing by peace officers at any time. Registration status is also checked on a random 

basis at roadblocks and in parking lots at various locations around the state. Per Section 

41-la-402, Utah license plates indicate the expiration date of the registration. Per Section 

41-1 a-1303, it is a Class C misdemeanor for a person to drive or move, or for an owner 

knowingly to permit to be driven or moved, upon any highway any vehicle of a type that 

is required to be registered in the state that is not registered in the state. Section 4 l-la1315 specifies that it is a third degree felony to falsify evidence of title and registration. 

Change of ownership: Vehicle owners are not able to avoid the l/M inspection program 

by changing ownership of the vehicle. Upon change of vehicle ownership the vehicle 

must be re-registered by the new owner. The new owner must present an emissions 

Section X, Part A, page 5 
certificate, waiver, or proof of exemption from the l/M program as a condition precedent 

to registration4

. The new annual registration and l/M inspection dates for the vehicle will 

be the date of registration. 

Utah Tax Commission, and County Assessors roles: The Utah Tax Commission Motor 

Vehicle Division and county assessor deny applications for vehicle registration or 

renewal of registration without submittal of a valid certificate of compliance, waiver, or 

verified evidence of exemption. Altered or hand-written documents are not accepted. All 

certificate data is collected by county l/M program auditors and subjected to scrutiny for 

evidence of any improprieties. 

Database quality assurance: The vehicle registration database is maintained and quality 

assured by the Utah Division of Motor Vehicle (DMV). Each county l/M inspection 

database is maintained and quality assured by the county l/M program staff. The county 

l/M program has access to the DMV database and utilizes it for quality assurance 

purposes. All databases are subject to regular auditing, cross-referencing, and analysis. 

The databases are also evaluated using data obtained during roadblocks and parking lot 

surveys. Evidence of program effectiveness may trigger additional joint enforcement 

activities. 

Oversight provisions: The oversight program includes verification of exempt vehicle 

status through inspection, data accuracy through automatic and redundant data entry for 

most data elements, an audit trail for program documentation to ensure control and 

tracking of enforcement documents, identification and verification of exemptiontriggering changes in registration data, and regular audits of l/M inspection records, l/M 

program databases, and the DMV database. 

Enforcement staff quality assurance: County l/M program auditors and DMV clerks 

involved in vehicle registration are subject to regular performance audits by their 

supervisors. All enforcement personnel (direct and indirect) involved in the motorist 

enforcement program are subject to disciplinary action, additional training, and 

termination for deviation from procedures. Specific provisions are outlined in the DMV 

procedures manual which is available upon request. The county l/M audit policy 

documents are provided in their respective part of this section. 

Quality Control: The l/M counties maintain records regarding inspections, equipment 

maintenance, and the required quality assurance activities. The l/M counties analyze l/M 

program data and submit annual reports to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency 

and UDAQ upon request. 

Analyzer data collection: Each county's I/M analyzer data collection system meets the 

requirements specified under 40 CFR 51.365. 

4 See Utah Code Section 41-6a-1642 (7) and 41-Ja-205(2)(b) and (c) 

Section X, Part A, page 6 
Data analysis and reporting-Annual: The l/M counties analyze and submit to EPA and 

UDAQ an annual report for January through December of the previous year, which 

includes all the data elements listed in 40 CFR Subpart S 51.366 by July of each year. If 

a report is required earlier than annually, the counties will accommodate the request. 

General enforcement provisions: The county IIM programs are responsible for 

enforcement action against incompetent or dishonest stations and inspectors. Each county 

I/M ordinance or regulation includes a penalty schedule. 

General public information: The l/M counties have comprehensive public education and 

protection programs, including providing strategies to educate the public on Utah's air 

quality problems; ways that people can reduce emissions; the requirements of state and 

federal law; the role of motor vehicles in the air quality problem; the need for and 

benefits of a vehicle emissions inspection program; ways to operate and maintain a 

vehicle in a low-emission condition; how to find a qualified repair technician; and the 

requirements of the IIM program. Information is provided via county websites and direct 

response to inquiries for information, reports, classes, pamphlets, fairs, school 

presentations, workshops, news releases, posters, signs, and public meetings. Utah 

Department of Environmental Quality also provides information on its website about 

ways to operate and maintain a vehicle in a low-emission condition. 

County UM technical centers: Each I/M county operates an l/M technical center staffed 

with trained auditors and capable of performing emissions tests. A major function of the 

IIM technical centers is to serve as a referee station to resolve conflicts between permitted 

IIM inspectors, stations, and motorists. Auditors actively protect consumers against fraud 

and abuse by inspectors, mechanics, and others involved in the IIM program. Complaints 

are received and investigated fully. Auditors advise motorists regarding emissions 

warranty provisions and assist the owners in obtaining warranty covered repairs for 

eligible vehicles. The I/M technical centers also provide motorists with information 

regarding the IIM program, general air pollution issues, and emissions-related vehicle 

repairs. 

Vehicle inspection report: A vehicle inspection report (VIR) is printed and provided to 

the motorist after each vehicle inspection. The VIR includes a public awareness statement 

about vehicle emissions and lists additional ways that the public can reduce air pollution. 

The test results are detailed on the VIR. Information about vehicle emissions warranties 

and the benefits of emissions-related repairs are printed for vehicles that failed the test. If 

the vehicle fails a retest, information about wavier requirements, application procedures 

and the address and telephone number of the applicable I/M technical center are printed 

on the VIR. 

Reciprocity between County JIM programs: Utah I/M programs are conducting the same 

test procedures and thereby agreed to recognize the validity of a certificate granted by 

any Utah I/M program.

8 PM2.5 National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) on December 14, 2009 (74 FR 58688, 

9 November 13, 2009). Accordingly, Cache County must implement control strategies to attain the 

10 PM2.s NAAQS. A motor vehicle emission inspection and maintenance (l/M) program has been 

11 identified by the PM2.5 State Implementation Plan (SIP) as a necessary control strategy to attain 

12 the PM2.s NAAQS as expeditiously as practicable. Therefore, pursuant to Utah Code Annotated 

13 41-6a-1642, Cache County must implement an l/M program that complies with the minimum 

14 requirements of 40 CFR Part 51 Subpart S. Cache County will implement its l/M program 

15 county-wide. Parts A and F of Section X demonstrate compliance with 40 CFR Part 51 Subpart 

16 S for Cache County.

IMPLEMENTATION OF A VEIDCLE EMISSIONS AND MAINTENANCE 

PROGRAM IN CACHE COUNTY 

1.0 PURPOSE 

The purpose of this ordinance to reduce air pollution levels in Cache County by requiring 

emission inspections of on-road motor vehicles and by requiring emission related repairs

Two-Speed Idle (TSI) Test Procedures 

During a two-speed idle test, the Analyzer measures the tailpipe exhaust emissions of a vehicle 

while the vehicle idles at both high and low speed. The Analyzer tests vehicles for carbon 

dioxide in addition to hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide. The two-speed idle test comprises 

two phases: (1) high speed test (2200-2800 RPMs) for the first phase of the emissions test; then, 

(2) tested at idle (350-1100 RPMs). 

1.0 The Certified Emissions lnspector shall not inspect or test any motor vehicle with 

a mechanical condition which may cause injury to inspection personnel or 

damage to the inspection station or test equipment or which may affect the 

validity of the test, until such condition is corrected. Such conditions include, but 

are not limited to: coolant, oil, or fuel leaks; low oil or low fluid levels; and high 

visible emissions. 

2.0 Prepare the Analyzer for testing as specified by the manufacturer. 

3.0 Each vehicle shall be checked to determine that it is at normal operating 

temperature by feeling the top radiator hose or by checking the temperature 

gauge. Each vehicle shall be at normal operating temperature before performing 

the emissions inspection. 

4.0 The inspection shall be performed with the transmission in "park" or "neutral" 

and with all accessories off and the emergency brake applied. 

5.0 The Analyzer probe shall be inserted into the exhaust pipe at least twelve inches 

or as recommended by the Analyzer manufacturer, whichever is greater. 

6.0 If a baffle or screen prevents probe insertion of at least twelve inches, a suitable 

probe adapter or snug fitting, non-reactive hose which effectively lengthens the 

exhaust pipe shall be used.

1.0 GENERAL 

This appendix contains specifications for Emission Inspection System Contractors (hereafter, 

Contractors) to design Testing Equipment to be used in the Cache County Vehicle Emissions Inspection 

and Maintenance Program (hereafter, l/M Program). Testing Equipment to be used in the l/M Program 

must be capable of performing consistent Two-Speed Idle (TSI), and On-Board Diagnostics (OBD) 

emissions inspections. 

1.1 Design Goals 

Testing Equipment must be designed and constructed to provide reliable and accurate service in 

the automotive service environment and have a useful life of at least five years. The software 

must be designed for maximum operational simplicity and be capable of providing emissions 

readings or codes that can be used for vehicle diagnostics. A manual, non-test mode should be 

available to perform vehicle diagnostics. The software must prevent users from clearing 

Diagnostic Trouble Codes, changing readiness status, or performing other actions that could 

change the results of an official emissions test. In addition, the Testing Equipment must include 

security measures that will prevent unauthorized modifications to the software or inspection 

data, record unauthorized entry, also known as tampering, and prevent subsequent inspections 

when tampering is detected. 

These technical specifications contain the minimum requirements for Testing Equipment used to 

perform emissions inspections in the l/M Program. Contractors may include additional items 

with approval from the Bear River Health Department (hereafter, the Department). 

1.1.1 Identification Data

can be changed by authorized personnel should a security problem be identified. A software 

controlled solenoid lock may also be used on the secured drive door of the Testing Equipment. 

The solenoid lock may be used instead of or in addition to any key or combination lock that may 

be provided. The Testing Equipment software must control the solenoid lock and unlatch the 

doors in response to authorized requests from the audit menu while maintaining the 

appropriate levels of security. 

A tamper file must be created that includes the date, time, type, and location of the tamper 

lockout, date and time the lockout was cleared, and who cleared the lockout. The tamper 

lockout type and location must be accessible only through the lockout function of the Testing 

Equipment's audit menu. 

Access to the compact disc drive (CD), if applicable, must be available to l/M Program Station 

personnel at all times. However, access to the BIOS, l/M related programs, and data must be 

secured separate from the CD and additional drives. The Contractor shall provide a security 

method approved by the Department for the CD drive(s) to prevent unauthorized reads, writes, 

and executable. However, the Contractor may offer Testing Equipment with additional disk 

drives that can run optional software application programs. 

The Testing Equipment must prevent Contractor-authorized repair technicians from performing 

the following, except in a manner approved by the Department: 

• Clearing a state lockout;

2.5 Engine Revolutions per Minute Detection 

Testing Equipment must be equipped with a tachometer, or equivalent software and hardware 

necessary to detect engine RPM from the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) ignition 

technologies in use at the time of certification. Possible updates may be required to enable 

future ignition systems to be monitored for engine RPM. A software "HELP" screen must be 

available to help the Certified Emissions Inspector locate an RPM signal. The cable-type 

connection must be at least 25 feet long (measured from the front of the Testing Equipment). 

Based on the vehicle identification information available to the Certified Emissions Inspector, 

the Testing Equipment must display messages indicating when the vehicle under inspection 

requires a specific type or method of the tachometer pick-up connection. A digital display 

tachometer must be displayed to measure engine speed. For TSI Analyzers, RPM readings must 

be recorded on a second-by-second basis for the 10 second or 5 second period that is used to 

determine the pass or fail status of the TSI emissions inspection, respectively. The tachometer 

operation must use one of the following means: 

• Radio frequency-type transmitter/receiver that requires no direct vehicle connection and 

can detect engine RPM on vehicles using distributorless ignition systems (DIS); 

• Cable-type connection capable of detecting engine RPM of current OEM ignition technology; 

• Battery/accessory power connection; or 

• Cable-type connection capable of detecting engine RPM via the OBD port. 

During the official inspection process the Testing Equipment must prompt the Certified 

Emissions Inspector to shut the engine off while connecting the cable-type RPM connection. The 

RPM bypass function must be made available when the live engine RPM is displayed for the first 

10 
time. If the RPM cannot be obtained, the Certified Emissions Inspector shall be allowed to 

bypass the RPM. The Certified Emissions Inspector must simultaneously strike at least two keys 

to activate the RPM bypass. The bypass function must no longer be available once the emission 

inspection has begun. 

The Certified Emissions Inspector may use the previously listed methods for 1996 and newer 

model-year vehicles ifthe OBD port is unable to detect engine RPM. Tachometer performance 

must be no less than a 0.5 second RPM response time with an accuracy of +/-3 percent of actual 

RPM. 

2.6 Real-Time Inspection Testing Monitoring System 

All approved Testing Equipment conducting official emission testing shall be equipped with 

video capturing equipment. An l/M Program Station will be in violation if the video capturing 

equipment is not properly maintained or installed and capturing images of each inspection. If 

video equipment is not fully operational, the l/M Program Station must contact the Contractor 

immediately for repair or replacement. 

2.7 Inspection Restrictions Based on Current Calibrations 

The Analyzer must: 

• prevent TSI emissions inspections if the leak check has not passed in the last 24 hours; 

• prevent TSI emissions inspections if the gas calibration has not passed in the last 72 hours; 

The Testing Equipment must display appropriate error messages that indicate when a leak check 

or other calibration is needed to allow TSI inspections to be performed. 

2.8 Running Changes and Other Hardware Modifications 

Changes to design characteristics, component specifications, or any other modifications to the 

Testing Equipment hardware must be approved by the Department. The Contractor is 

responsible for confirming that such changes will have no detrimental effect on performance of 

the Testing Equipment. The Department may require testing at approved beta test sites prior to 

the release of the modifications. 

All proposed hardware modifications must be thoroughly tested by a third-party before being 

submitted to the Department, and be accompanied by a cover letter containing the following 

information: 

• Description of all of the proposed modifications to be performed, a parts list, and the 

installation instructions for the Contractor-authorized repair technician; 

• Test data and an engineering evaluation regarding the effects of the proposed 

modification(s) on the performance and reliability of the Testing Equipment for any 

modifications to the bench or sample system; 

11 
• Timeline showing timeframe in which the modifications are expected to occur and the 

number of existing units of Testing Equipment that will be updated; 

• Description of any special procedures that are needed to perform the hardware 

modifications; and 

• Documentation for any software update that would be required for the proposed hardware 

modifications. 

2.9 Exhaust Gas Analysis Equipment Specifications 

This section defines the requirements for the components needed to determine the 

concentrations of the exhaust gases during the TSI inspections. 

2.9.1 Measured Gases 

The Analyzer must measure hydrocarbons (HC) as hexane in parts per million (ppm), 

carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (C02), and oxygen (0 2 ) in percent. The Analyzer 

must have a digital display for vehicle engine speed and exhaust concentrations of HC, 

CO, C02, and 0 2 and must be capable of measuring exhaust concentrations of HC, CO, 

C02, and 0 2 at a minimum sample rate oftwice per second. 

2.9.2 Warm-up Conditions 

The Analyzer must reach stability within 30 minutes from startup at 35 degrees 

Fahrenheit (°F). The Analyzer must be considered warmed-up when the internal 

verifications are complete and the zero and span readings for HC, CO, C02, and 0 2 have 

stabilized within the allowable accuracy values for five minutes without adjustment. If 

stabilization has not been reached within an allotted time frame, then the Analyzer 

must prevent TSI inspection sequences and display a message instructing the Certified 

Emissions Inspector to call for service. Functional operation of the gas sampling system 

must remain disabled through an internal lockout until the instrument meets stability 

and warm-up requirements. 

2.9.3 Sampling System Components 

A) General: 

The sampling system must extract exhaust gas from a subject vehicle, remove 

particulate matter and aerosols from the sampled gas, drain the condensed water from 

the sample if necessary, and deliver the resultant gas sample to the Analyzer's sensors 

for analysis. The sampling system must, at a minimum, consist of a tailpipe probe, 

flexible sample line, continuously draining water remova l system, particulate trap, 

sample pump, and flow control components. Provisions must be made for the 

introduction of zero air and calibration gases. Materials that are in contact with the 

gases sampled must not contaminate or change the composition of the gases to be 

12 
analyzed, including gases from vehicles not fueled by gasoline. The system must be 

designed to be corrosion-resistant and to withstand vehicle exhaust. 

B) Sample Probe and Hose Criteria : 

Sample hose must be 25 feet in length with a tolerance of+/- 0.5 feet when measured 

from the front ofthe Analyzer cabinet. The hose must be composed of non-kinking 

material that will not be affected by or react to the exhaust gases. 

Sample hose and probe provided with each Analyzer must withstand exhaust gas 

temperatures at the probe tip of up to l,100°F for 10 minutes. Use of dissimilar metals 

with thermal expansion factors of more than 5 percent must not be used in either the 

construction of probes or connectors. 

A positive means of retention must be incorporated to prevent the probe from slipping 

out of the tailpipe when in use. 

A thermally insulated securely attached hand grip must be provided on the probe to 

ensure easy probe insertion using one hand. 

The probe must be designed so that the tip extends 16 inches into the tailpipe and at 

least 10 inches into the vehicle's exhaust. 

The probe tip must be shielded to avoid inadvertent debris collection and sealed to 

prevent any sample dilution when it is inserted into the tailpipe. Use of a tailpipe 

extension is permitted as long as the extension does not change the exhaust back 

pressure by more than+/- 1 inch of water pressure. 

A straight probe tip must be provided that is bent less than 15 degrees, made of 

stainless steel solid-wall tubing with a 3/16 inch outside diameter, and designed so the 

connector between the removable probe tip and the rigid portion of tubing is up inside 

the tailpipe at least three inches to reduce the effects of any leak that might occur. 

A probe tip cap suitable for performing a leak check must be provided if the vacuum 

decay method for performing a leak check is used. Otherwise, all hoses and connectors 

that are necessary to perform a leak check must be provided . 

The sample system must include equipment necessary to inspect vehicles equipped with 

dual exhaust pipes. The flow in each leg of the dual exhaust probe sample system must 

be equal. 

C) Particulate Filter and Water Trap: 

• The particulate filter must be capable oftrapping 97 percent of all particulates and 

aerosols five microns or larger; 

• The filter must not absorb or adsorb HC; 

13 
• The filter housing must be transparent to allow the operator to observe the filter's 

condition without removing the housing. The filter must be removable and reliably 

seal after replacement; 

• The water trap must be sized to remove exhaust sample water from vehicles fueled 

with, or a combination of gasoline, propane, compressed natural gas (CNG), 

oxygenated fuels, and alternative fuels. The filter bowl, filter, and housing must not 

react to these fuels or the vehicle's exhaust gases. The condensed water must be 

continuously and sufficiently drained from the water trap's bowl to prevent 

condensation in the sample system or in the optical bench's sample cell; and 

• Incorporate a back-purge system. 

D) Low Flow Indicator: 

The Analyzer must lockout official TSI inspections when the sample flow is below the 

acceptable level. The Analyzer' s sample system must be equipped with a flow meter or 

equivalent device that detects sample flow degradation. The Analyzer must display a 

low flow condition message when flow rate causes the measurement error for any gas 

to exceed 3 percent of the gas value used for calibration or audit or causes the analyzer 

response time to exceed 13 seconds to 90 percent of a step change in input, whichever 

is less. The sample vacuum may be continuously monitored to detect a low flow 

condition as an alternative. 

E) Analyzer lockout: 

The Analyzer must lockout official TSI inspections when the sample flow is below the 

acceptable level. The Analyzer's sample system must be equipped with a flow meter or 

equivalent device that must indicate when sample flow degradation for any gas other 

than NO causes : 

• The measurement error to exceed 3 percent of the gas value used for checking; or 

• The Analyzer response time to exceed 13 seconds for a 90 percent step change in 

input. 

The sample vacuum may be continuously monitored to detect a low flow condition as 

an alternative. 

3.0 Analyzer Requirements 

3.1 Gas Calibration 

A) General: 

The Analyzer must automatically require and successfully pass a leak check and a gas calibration 

for HC, CO, C02, and 0 2 by a method that is approved by the Department. The Analyzer must not 

allow an error of more than 2 percent of the readings using the high and low range span gases 

14 
for TSI inspections. The Analyzer must automatically prohibit the performance of the tailpipe 

portion of the vehicle emissions inspection when readings exceed the 2 percent error tolerance. 

The Analyzer channels must be adjusted to the center of the allowable tolerance range as a 

result of the gas calibration procedure. 

The standard gases to be used to calibrate and audit the Analyzer must meet the requirements 

in the Federal Clean Air Act, §207(b) and described in Subpart W of Part 85 of Chapter I, Title 40 

of the CFR. All standard gases purchased by the l/M Program Station for use in the Analyzer 

must conform to the requirements established by the BAR for emissions inspection analyzer 

calibration gases and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). 

B) Gas Calibration Procedure: 

• The Analyzer must maintain accuracy between gas calibrations taking into account all errors, 

including noise, repeatability, drift, linearity, temperature, and barometric pressure; 

• The Analyzer must automatically require a zero gas calibration and a high and low range gas 

calibration for HC, CO, C02, and 0 2, where applicable. The Analyzer must record the gas 

reading data prior to the adjustment and other data pertinent to control charting Analyzer 

performance; 

• The gas calibration must be accomplished by the following method: Calibration gases that 

meet the requirements of Section 3.1: Calibration Gases for TSI Analyzers must be 

introduced into the calibration port of the Analyzer. The pressure in the sample cell must be 

the same with the calibration gas flowing as with the sample flowing during an inspection. 

Once the pressure is the same, the Analyzer must perform a zero gas calibration and a leak 

check. The leak check must ensure that the entire sample system does not leak. 

3.2 Calibration Gases for TSI Analyzers 

The following gases must be used for the two-point calibration and audit. 

A) Low Range Calibration Gas 

HC = 200 ppm propane 

CO = 0.5 percent 

C02 = 6.0 percent 

0 2 = Shop Air 

N2 = Balance 99.99 percent pure 

15 
B) High Range Calibration Gas 

HC = 3200 ppm propane 

CO = 8.0 percent 

C02 = 12.0 percent 

N2 = Balance 99.99 percent pure 

3.3 Dilution 

The flow rate of the Analyzer must not cause more than 10 percent dilution during sampling of 

vehicle exhaust gases from a 1.6 liter engine at normal idle. Ten percent dilution is defined as a 

sample of 90 percent exhaust and 10 percent ambient air. 

3.4 Calibration Prompts and Gas Usage 

The Analyzer must display prompts to guide the inspector through the gas calibration procedure 

in a manner that minimizes the amount of gas used. The Analyzer must be designed to keep the 

loss of calibration gas to less than 0.5 liter in 24 hours when the valve on the calibration gas 

bottle is left open. 

3.5 Propane Equivalency Factor 

The value of the PEF must range from 0.490 to 0.540 and be displayed in a manner acceptable 

to the Department for each gas audit and gas calibration point. If an optical bench must be 

replaced in the field, then the Contractor-authorized repa ir technician must change any external 

labels to correspond to the PEF of the new bench. The Analyzer must incorporate an algorithm 

relating PEF to HC concentration . Corrections to the PEF must be made automatically and the 

corrected PEF value must range from 0.470 to 0.560.
