tru -- ARB Approves Proventia Verification Extension for 2003 TRU Engines

Posted: 16 Jul 2010 10:15:19
The California Air Resources Board (ARB) has extended the
verification for the Proventia Group's FTF and Bobtail FTF to
cover model year (MY) 2003 transport refrigeration unit (TRU)
engines. 

This action was taken in anticipation of ARB’s planned amendment
to the TRU Airborne Toxic Control Measure (ATCM), which will
change the in-use performance standard for MY 2003 engines from
the Ultra-Low Emission TRU in-use performance standard to the
less stringent Low-Emission TRU (LETRU) in-use standard.  MY 2003
TRU engines are required to comply with this in-use standard by
December 31, 2010.

The Proventia FTF and Bobtail FTF flow-through filters reduce
diesel particulate matter emissions at least 50 percent, plus
they comply with the 20 percent NO2 limit, qualifying it as a
Level 2 Plus Verified Diesel Emissions Control Strategy (VDECS). 
This verification allows the FTF and Bobtail FTF Level 2 VDECS to
be used as a retrofit compliance option to meet the TRU ATCM’s
LETRU in-use standard.  It can be used on Thermo King TRUs with
MY 1987 through 2003 truck TRU engines and MY 1985 through 2003
trailer TRU engines, provided certain terms and conditions are
met.  TRU owners should read about the specific terms and
conditions for which the Proventia FTF and Bobtail FTF have been
approved in Executive Order DE-08-001-04, which will be posted
the week of July 19, 2010, on the ARB Verification Procedure -
Level 2 website at
http://www.arb.ca.gov/diesel/verdev/level2/level2.htm.  The list
of engines that can be matched with this filter will also be
posted there as an attachment.
