EVALUATION SUMMARY Manufacturer Name: Cleaire Advanced Emission Controls Name of Device: Flash and Match and Flash and Catch Diesel Retrofit Systems Background: Cleaire Advanced Emission Controls (Cleaire) of 14775 Wicks Boulevard, San Leandro, California 94577 has requested exemption of its Flash and Match and Flash and Catch diesel retrofit systems from the prohibitions in section 27156 of the California Vehicle Code (VC). The systems are designed for use on 1993 through 1998 model— year Cummins M11 heavy—duty diesel engines. The exemptions apply to the engines and low NOx software calibrations Cummins has identified in its "Low NOx Rebuild Calibration Listing." In addition, the exemptions are only valid provided that the following conditions are met: (1) the replacement fuel infectors are Cummins ReCon PX injectors remanufactured to meet Cummins‘ original equipment manufacturer (OEM) specifications; (2) for the Flash and Maitch system, the oxidation catalyst is identical to the catalyst used in Cummins‘ 2001 model—year OEM ISM bus engines; and (3) for the Flash and Catch system, the filter is Engelhard Corporation‘s DPX Catalyzed Soot Filter or Johnson Matthey‘s CRT Particulate Filter exempted by the ARB and is used only on engines that meet the operating conditions (i.e. particulate matter emission level, NOx to PM ratio, engine exhaust temperature, and diesel fuel sulfur level) specifiedby Engelhard Corporation and Johnson Matthey. Recommendation: - — Grant exemption to Cleaire as requested and issue Executive Orders D—535 and O—535-1 Device Description: Cleaire‘s Flash and Match and Flash and Catch systems are exhaust emission control devices designed primarily to reduce oxides of nitrogen (NOx) and particulate matter (PM) emissions from diesel engines. It also reduces hydrocarbon and carbon monoxide emissions from diesel engines. The Flash and Match system consists of re— programming of the electronic control module (ECM), replacement fuel injectors, and a diesel oxidation catalyst. The Flash and Catch system consists of the same ECM re— program and replacement injfectors but instead of the catalyst includes a diesel PM filter. The system components are identified in Attachments A, B, and C of Executive Orders D—535 and D—535—1. The ECM re—program is identical to the calibration change required under Cummins‘ Consent Degrees with the United States Environmental Protection Agency {(U.S. EPA) and the Air Resources Board (ARB). The calibration retards fuel injection timing to reduce NOx emissions during highway operations. The low NOx software calibrations and the applicable engines are identified in Cummins‘ "Low NOx Rebuild Calibration Listing" (Attachment A). The replacement injectors are Cummins ReCon PX injectors, remanufactured to meet Cummins‘ OEM specifications. The catalyst is manufactured by Engelhard Corporation and canned by Fleetguard Nelson. It is identical to the catalytic muffler used in Cummins 2001 model—year OEM ISM bus engines. The catalyst measures 9.5 inches in diameter and 12 inches in length is

identified by Cummins part number 3926265 and Fleetguard Nelson part number 27112. The PM filters used in the Flash and Catch system include Engelhard Corporation‘s DPX Catalyzed Soot Filter and Johnson Matthey‘s CRT Particulate Filter. Both filters are passive, continuously regenerating cordierite wall—flow filters. The DPX filters are exempted under Executive Orders D—384—5, D—384—6, and D—384—7, and the CRT fiters are exempted under Executive Order D—393—3. Exemption of the Flash and Catch system is valid provided that the engines meet the following conditions: (1) the engines were originally certified to meet a PM emission standard of 0.10 grams per brake—horsepower—hour or lower; (2) the engine exhaust temperature is greater than or equal to 225° C (DPX filter ) or 275° C (CRT filter) for 40 to 50 percent of the duty cycle; (3) NOx to PM ratio is at least 8 (CRT filter) ; and (4) the engine is operated using diesel fuel with a maximum sulfur content of 50 parts per million by weight. Discussion/Basis for the Recommendation; The ECM calibration change has already been evaluated and approved by the— U.S. EPA and the ARB under the Consent Decrees. Under the Consent Decrees, Cummins is required to ensure that the calibration results in lower highway NOx emissions (steady—state emissions) and does not cause any increases in emissions for all other regulated pollutants. The replacement fuel injectors are remanufactured to meet Cummins OEM specifications, and the oxidation catalystis identical to the one certified on Cummins 2001 model—year new ISM bus engines. To further demonstrate thatthe system has no adverse impact on emissions, Cleaire conducted chassis Mess dynamometer emission testing with the Flash and Match system. Comparison of baseline and modified emissions during Urban Dynamometer Driving Schedule showed that the Flash and Match system does not have any s:gmflcant adverse impact on the vehicle‘s transient emissions. Cleaire did not prowde any emission data for the Flash and Catch system. However, based on the emission results of the Flash and Match system and based on the ARB‘s previous evaluations of PM filters, it was concluded that replacing the catalyst with a PM filter would not result in any adverse emission impact. As a result, it is concluded that the Flash and Match and Flash and Catch systems meet the requirements for a VC 27156 exemption for the engines listed in the Executive Order.
