Illinois Administrative Code › Title 92 - TRANSPORTATION › Part 460 - DIESEL EMISSION INSPECTION PROGRAM › Subpart C - PROCEDURES FOR PERFORMING THE SNAP-ACCELERATION INSPECTION › Section 460.300 - Vehicle Preparation

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 28, July 12, 2024
AGENCY NOTE: The procedure for a snap-acceleration inspection
				  is established in accordance with SAE J1667 and consists of Sections
				  460.300
				  through
				  460.330.
				  Prior to conducting the snap-acceleration test, the following procedures must
				  be completed by the Certified Diesel Emission Tester (CDET):
a) Set parking brake.
b) Chock the wheels.
c) Manual transmissions shall be placed in
				neutral. Automatic transmissions shall be placed in park, if available, or
				neutral if park is not available.
d) Deactivate any device that may alter
				normal acceleration, i.e. air-conditioning or engine brake.
e) Slowly accelerate the vehicle toward its
				maximum governed speed. Note any audible or visual indications that the engine
				is not mechanically sound. If there are no indications of problems, allow the
				engine to accelerate to a point where it becomes apparent that the governor is
				functioning properly. If it becomes apparent that the governor is not
				functioning properly, release the accelerator and stop the inspection. If the
				vehicle's engine is governed and not functioning properly, the governor must be
				adjusted or repaired in accordance with the vehicle's manufacturer
				specifications before the snap-acceleration inspection is performed. If the
				vehicle was manufactured without a governor, the procedure to obtain a Diesel
				Emission Inspection Certificate of Waiver for an Ungoverned Vehicle must be
				initiated (see Section
				460.605
				).
f) Inspect the vehicle's exhaust
				system for leaks. If exhaust leaks are found, stop the inspection until all
				exhaust leaks have been repaired.
Illinois Administrative Code › Title 92 - TRANSPORTATION › Part 460 - DIESEL EMISSION INSPECTION PROGRAM › Subpart C - PROCEDURES FOR PERFORMING THE SNAP-ACCELERATION INSPECTION › Section 460.310 - Equipment Set-Up

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 28, July 12, 2024
a)
				Diesel emission inspection Official Testing Stations must be equipped with
				diesel emission inspection equipment approved by the Department. The Department
				has approved the Smoke Check 1667 Partial Flow Opacity Meter manufactured by
				Red Mountain Engineering and the Opax 200 manufactured by Protech.
b) The Department will only approve other
				equipment that is capable of performing the snap-acceleration inspection as
				described in Section
				460.320,
				of reporting the inspection results as described in Section
				460.330,
				and of interfacing with the Department's electronic information processing
				system.
Illinois Administrative Code › Title 92 - TRANSPORTATION › Part 460 - DIESEL EMISSION INSPECTION PROGRAM › Subpart C - PROCEDURES FOR PERFORMING THE SNAP-ACCELERATION INSPECTION › Section 460.320 - Snap-Acceleration Inspection Procedures

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 28, July 12, 2024
With the vehicle prepared as described in Section
				  460.300
				  and the equipment set up as described in Section
				  460.310,
				  the snap-acceleration inspection shall be executed as follows:
a) With the engine at normal operating
				temperature and at low idle speed, the CDET shall move the accelerator to the
				fully opened position as quickly as possible.
b) The CDET shall hold the accelerator in the
				fully opened position until the engine reaches its maximum governed speed, plus
				an additional 1 to 4 seconds, or as prompted by the display on the smoke
				opacimeter.
c) After completing the
				snap-acceleration of the engine operating at maximum governed speed for 1 to 4
				seconds, the CDET shall release the accelerator and allow the engine to return
				to low idle speed.
d) Allow the
				engine to remain at low idle speed for 5 to 45 seconds or as prompted by the
				display on the smoke opacimeter.
e)
				Repeat steps (a) through (d) two additional times, for a total of three
				snap-acceleration cycles.
f) These
				three snap-accelerations are preliminary cycles that allow CDETs to become
				familiar with the engine's acceleration and also remove loose soot from the
				vehicle exhaust system. The three preliminary cycles can also be used to check
				for proper operation of the smoke opacimeter.
g) Within 2 minutes after the preliminary
				snap-acceleration cycles or as prompted by the smoke opacimeter, the CDET shall
				execute three snap-accelerations in the same manner as described in subsections
				(a) through (d) of this Section for the preliminary acceleration
				cycles.
h) The percentage of
				opacity for the three snap-accelerations must be within 5% of each other for
				the inspection to be valid.
i) If
				the smoke opacimeter display announces a valid inspection, document the
				inspection results as instructed in Section
				460.330,
				Reporting of Inspection Results.
j)
				If the test was invalid due to readings that varied by more than 5% or any
				other condition that would render the inspection invalid, repeat the entire
				inspection as outlined in Subpart C of this Part.

a) The owner/operator of each vehicle
				presented for a diesel emission inspection shall provide a registration card,
				title or bill of sale that displays the vehicle identification number (VIN) and
				the owner/operator's name and address.
b) The CDET shall compare the VIN displayed
				on the registration card, title or bill of sale to the actual VIN on the
				vehicle being presented for a diesel emission inspection to determine that the
				document provided accurately identifies the vehicle presented.
c) The following procedures apply only to
				vehicles that pass the diesel emission inspection by meeting minimum cutpoint
				standards:
1) The following information shall
				be written on the back of the Diesel Emission Inspection Compliance Card
				(DEICC) in the space provided:
A) Date of
				inspection
B) Official Testing
				Station number
C) Vehicle
				Identification Number (VIN)
D)
				License plate number
i) If license plate is
				applied for, write: "applied for."
ii) If no license plate or registration has
				been applied for, write: "none."
E) Write the average opacity reading
				indicated on the printer tape generated during the inspection.
F) The CDET who performs the diesel emission
				inspection shall sign the DEICC.
G)
				A Validation Certificate shall be attached in the space provided. The DEICC is
				not valid as proof of compliance unless the Validation Certificate is
				attached.
