Understanding emission compliance:The new design/specify caveat

摘要

Stationary engine source applications such as gensets and fire pumps are facing increasingly stringent emission regulations created and implemented by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), (www.epa.gov) as well as state and local air authorities.Specifiers of equipment must understand the applicable emissions regulations that apply to their application and account for the various design and maintenance considerations that must be included for proper use and care of the product. Understanding the process by which emission laws are enacted can help specifiers determine if their projects must comply with additional requirements.
