Chapter 5.4 - Measurement equipment

Chapter 5.4.2

Chapter 5.4.2 reads as follows:

Other systems or analysers may, subject to the approval of the Administration, be accepted if they yield equivalent results to that of the equipment referenced in 5.4.1.

Interpretation:

For application of the term "equivalent" it should be interpreted that alternative systems or analysers would, as quantified by using recognized national or international standards (such as ISO 8178, Part 1:1996, section 7), yield equivalent results when used to measure diesel engine exhaust emission concentrations in terms of the requirements referenced in 5.4.1 of Appendix 3.
