State of California AIR RESOURCES BOARD EXECU'I-IVE ORDER D-562-10 Relating to Exemptions under Section 27156 of the Vehicle Code Valina, Inc. (d.b.a. Car Tex) "Series 12400 OBD ll Compliant Three-way Catalytic Converter" WHEREAS, Vehicle Code Sections 27156 and Section 2222(h), Title 13, California Code of Regulations (hereafter "CCR"), authorize the California Air Resources Board and its Executive Officer to exempt new aftermarket catalytic converters from the prohibitions of Vehicle Code Section 271 56. WHEREAS, Valina, Inc. (Valina) of 4560 Worth Street, Los Angeles, California 90063, has applied to the Air Resources Board for exemption from the prohibitions in Vehicle Code Section 271 56 to market its new aftermarket Series 12400 three-way catalytic converter (TWC) for installation on selected 1996 through 2001 model year HondaIAcura passenger cars equipped with on-board diagnostic II (OBD-II) systems as specified in Appendix D-562-10 and incorporated herein. The Series 12400 TWC will be used for single (one unit) exhaust system applications. The TWC may also be installed on non-OBD II vehicles (1995 and older) similar in engine and exhaust configuration to those listed in Appendix D-562-10. WHEREAS, pursuant to the authority vested in the Executive Officer by Health and Safety Code Section 39515 and in the Chief, Mobile Source Operations Division by Health and Safety Code Section 39516 and Executive Order G-02-003, the Air Resources Board finds that the above aftermarket catalytic converter complies with the California Vehicle Code Section 27156 and Title 13, California Code of Regulations, Section 2222(h). The emissions performance of the catalytic converter was based on durability bench-aging by Umicore Automotive Catalyst Corporation using Air Resources Board-modified RAT-A bench-aging cycle for 75 hours, as specified in the "Optional Evaluation Procedures for New Aftermarket Non-original Equipment Catalytic Converters Equipped with On-Board Diagnostic II (OBD II) Systems." WHEREAS, emissions tests conducted at Siemens ADO Automotive Test Center (Siemens), Auburn Hills, Michigan, using a 1998 2.3L Honda Accord equipped with a single exhaust system, and certified to the Low Emission Vehicle (LEV, PC) emission standards showed that the vehicle met the applicable emission standards with Series 12400 TWC (one unit) installed. OBD II compatibility tests performed on the same test vehicle showed that Series 12400 TWC did not affect the vehicle's ability to perform OBD II system monitoring. Emission test results in grams per mile are shown below.
