Proposal to introduce provisions to align UN R49 with recently introduced stage D EU legislation in order enable manufacturers to continue to utilize the provisions in paragraph 4 of Annex 9A to approve light commercial vehicles with a light duty OBD architecture under this regulation. This proposal incorporates all of the provisions of the latest amendment to EU legislation. As stage D is unrelated to OBD, the proposal is to make stage C and all subsequent stages equivalent to EOBD 6-2.

Comprehensive amendment of document GRPE/2017/6 to align UN R49 with the latest amendments of EU Euro VI legislation (Reg. EU 2016/1718), including

1. OBD equivalency option for light commercial vehicles to be continued with step ‘D’,
2. editorial corrections (incl. keeping optional THC PEMS measurement for gas engines),
3. implementation dates in Appendix 9 table 1 (2016/1718) and Annex 3 table 1 (R49),
4. implement rejection note for retroactive applicability with regard to in-service conformity (paragraph 13.4.),
clarification of type approval provisions for ‘new vehicle types as of 2017’,
5. deletion of infeasible requirement related to the PEMS test (“…void if … no valid windows left in urban only”), second part of sentence in Annex 8, Appendix 1: A1.4.2.2.2.2.
6. deletion of inconsistency between work based window and CO2 mass based method regarding valid integration windows (A.1.4.2.2.2.2. versus A.1.4.3.1.2.2).

Proposal to correct and clarify the text, including to

1. correct the constants for equation (34) to calculate exhaust mass flow using carbon balance method,
2. correct constants used for CVS verification,
3. correct the formula for regression analysis according to Annex 4, Appendix 3, and
4. correct the rise time (to 3.5 s from 2.5 s) for the PEM analyzers under paragraph A.2.2.1. of the 06 series.

In line with the need to update UN R96 in response to the new EU Stage V NRMM regulation, Regulation (EU) 2016/1628 would impact UN R132. Therefore, EUROMOT recommends updating UN R132 in parallel with UN R96 and UN R120. In particular, EUROMOT proposes establishing a specific annex to UN R132 in light of the similar stringencies of EURO VI heavy duty emissions requirements and those of NRMM Stage V that would specify all the necessary additional requirements for Stage V (in a manner similar to the existing Annex 12 for emission levels equivalent to the 06 series of amendments of UN R49).

Proposal to ensure that all replacement pollution control devices conform with the intent of UN R49 and to align UN R49 in this regard with Regulation (EU) 2016/1718. CLEPA proposes the establishment of a new annex under UN R49-05 R.49-05 to restrict the approval of a replacement device to one that “enables the engine and vehicle to comply with the rules with which it was originally in compliance”.
