UN R110: Proposal for Supplement 2 to the 03 series of amendments
Proposal to require, in instances where ogive protective covers are fitted to a cylinder, that the covers be removed before conducting the impact damage (drop) test. The proposal further would amend and clarify the need for a gas flow adjuster under UN R110 with regard to the use of carburetors and fuel injectors. A gas flow adjuster is not necessary when an electronic fuel injection system manages the air/fuel mixture and therefore should be removed from paragraph 18.3.1. An adjuster is needed when air/fuel mixture runs via a carburetor and therefore should be added to paragraph 18.3.2.
This proposal (WP.29/2019/13), as amended by para. 104 of the 177th session report, was adopted by the World Forum. Thirty-six Contracting Parties out of the 50 applying UN R110 were present for the vote by AC.1. Thirty-six voted in favor with zero against and zero abstaining.
