Emissions data measurement procedures are consistent with those described in EPA CFR 40 Part 89, Subpart D & E and ISO8178-1 for
measuring HC, CO, PM, NOx. Data shown is based on steady state operating conditions of 77°F, 28.42 in HG and number 2 diesel fuel

engine to engine variations. Emissions data is based on 100% load and thus cannot be used to compare to EPA regulations which use
values based on a weighted cycle.
