Subpart C_Measurement Instruments
Sec. 1065.250 Nondispersive infra-red analyzer.
(a) Application. Use a nondispersive infra-red (NDIR) analyzer to
measure CO and CO2 concentrations in raw or diluted exhaust
for either batch or continuous sampling.
(b) Component requirements. We recommend that you use an NDIR
analyzer that meets the specifications in
[[Page 709]]
Table 1 of Sec. 1065.205. Note that your NDIR-based system must meet
the calibration and verifications in Sec. 1065.350 and Sec. 1065.355
and it must also meet the linearity verification in Sec. 1065.307. You
may use an NDIR analyzer that has compensation algorithms that are
functions of other gaseous measurements and the engine's known or
assumed fuel properties. The target value for any compensation algorithm
is 0.0% (that is, no bias high and no bias low), regardless of the
uncompensated signal's bias.
