The following minimum performance standards for Mse. exhaust systems are established to prevent the ignition of fire in organic fuels consisting of, or developed from forest, brush or grass vegetation.
(a) Carbon Particle Retention or Destruction. Each Mse. exhaust system or a spark arrester used in or with such exhaust system shall be designed to retain or destroy 90% or more of the carbon particles having a major diameter greater than 0.023 in. (0.584 mm) as determined when tested in accordance with the provisions of part 3 of the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) Recommended Practice J335(b).
(b) Exposed Surface Temperature. The Mse. exhaust system shall be designed so that the exposed surface temperature shall not exceed 550 F (288 C) as determined when tested in accordance with the provisions of part 4 of SAE Recommended Practice J335(b).
(c) Exhaust Gas Temperature. The Mse. exhaust system shall be designed so that the exhaust gas temperature shall not exceed 475 F (246 C) as determined when tested in accordance with the provisions of part 5 of SAE Recommended Practice J335(b).
(d) Debris Accumulation. The Mse. exhaust system shall be designed in such a manner that there are no pockets or corners where flammable material might accumulate. Pockets are permissible only if it can be substantiated by suitable test that material can be prevented from accumulating in the pockets.
(e) Durability. The Mse. exhaust system must be constructed of durable material and so designed that it will, with normal use and maintenance, provide a reasonable service life. Parts designed for easy replacement as a part of routine maintenance shall have a service life of no less than 50 hours. Cleaning of parts shall not be required more frequently than once for each 8 hours of operation.
(f) Serviceability. A spark arrester shall be so designed that it may be readily inspected and cleaned.
s 1241.1. Test Procedures for Multiposition Small Engine Exhaust System Fire Ignition Suppression for Engines Manufactured After June 30, 1978.
The exhaust system of Mse. shall be tested and evaluated (qualified and rated) for compliance with the minimum performance standards established therefore, by 14 CAC 1241 by using SAE Recommended Practice J335(b) as adopted December 15, 1976. Practice J335(b) is adopted by reference as though set forth at length herein.
s 1241.2. Compliance Requirement for Multiposition Small Engines Manufactured After June 30, 1978.
Exhaust systems of Mse. operated or caused to be operated at any location in California on lands covered wholly or in part, by forest, brush, grass or any combination of such vegetation, will be only deemed to comply with the provisions of PRC 4443 if they are:
(a) certified by an Equipment Development Center of the United States Forest Service as having met the performance standards set forth in 14 CAC 1241 when tested using the procedures contained in SAE Recommended Practice J335(b) as required by 14 CAC 1241.1; and
(b) the operator of said Mse. maintains the exhaust system thereof so that it will at all times meet or exceed the minimum performance standards set forth in 14 CAC 1241.
