5、ed 2012-10 Superseding J335 JUN1995 Multiposition Small Engine Exhaust System Fire Ignition Suppression RATIONALE Revision of SAE J335 has become necessary in order to address new exhaust system technologies present on environmentally compliant small engines. 1. SCOPE This SAE Recommended Practice e
6、stablishes equipment and test procedures for determining the performance of spark arrester exhaust systems of multiposition small engines (19 kW) used in portable applications, including hand-held, hand-guided, and backpack mounted devices. It is not applicable to spark arresters used in vehicles or
7、 stationary equipment. 1.1 Purpose This document provides a method of evaluating the potential of multiposition small engine exhaust systems to ignite vegetative fuels. 1.2 Performance Recommended performance criteria are given in Appendix A. These requirements are adequate for the severe fire hazar
8、d condition posed by heavy vegetative fuels. However, during periods of extreme fire danger, exhaust systems meeting this document may not give absolute protection against fires. Additional operational restrictions may be necessary during such periods. 2. REFERENCES 2.1 Applicable Documents The foll

25、tained. 4.5 Wire Plug Gage A round wire gage of 0.610 mm (0.024 in) diameter with precision ground squared ends. Replace if any rounding is noted. SAE J335 Revised OCT2012 Page 4 of 14 5. SCREEN TEST The following screen test shall be made on all MSEs with removable (serviceable) screen-type spark a
26、rresters. Products using non-servicable (sealed) mufflers shall be subject to endurance testing per Appendix A. 5.1 Screen Housing Seal With the screen installed, probe the entire periphery for any gaps in the mounting structure. Any penetration using the wire plug test gage fails the test. When gag
27、ing, do not exceed 2 oz (0.56 N) of force. 5.2 Test With Screen Removed Remove the screen from the exhaust system and randomly probe the screen at least 20 times. Especially pay attention to any bends, molding, or edges. Any penetration using the wire plug gage fails the test. When gaging, do not ex
28、ceed 2 oz (0.56 N) of force. 5.3 Screen Housing Seal After Reassembly Install the screen in the exhaust system and repeat 5.1. 5.4 Screen Material Verify that the screen is constructed of a metal alloy which is heat and corrosion resistant. Verification may be performed through review of supplier ma
29、terial certifications or appropriate metallurgical analysis. 6. CONTACT PLANE DETERMINATION The contact planes are determined by the following method: 6.1 General 6.1.1 Determine the configuration of the MSE to be tested in accordance with 6.2 through 6.7. 6.1.2 Place the MSE power unit on a horizon
30、tal plane in the position which places the exhaust system nearest to that plane. In this position, identify three points where the power unit contacts the horizontal surface. This is the first contact plane. Using two existing contact points in the first plane, rotate the power unit until a third co
31、ntact point has been identified. This is the second contact plane. Repeat this process until a total of three contact planes have been established. Additional planes may be tested using good engineering practice. The contact plane closest to the exhaust flow direction shall be used for determination
32、 of the hot spot for the exhaust gas temperature. If any test plane contacts the exhaust system surface, the exhaust surface temperature shall be measured at this contact point. Mark the contact point accordingly. (Refer to Figure 1 for chain saws, Figure 2 for brush cutters, Figure 3 for hand held
33、blowers and Figure 4 for backpack blowers, Figure 5 for hedge trimmers, Figure 6 for Multi-Task tool, and Figure 7 for Cut-off machines) 6.1.3 Use narrow drafting-style tape and/or stiff, straight metal rods (3.0 mm or less in diameter) to connect the contact points in each plane, as shown in Figure
34、 1. These shall be used to provide more accurate thermocouple probe alignment during the test. SAE J335 Revised OCT2012 Page 5 of 14 6.2 Chain Saws 6.2.1 Assemble per manufacturers specification, without guide bar and chain, fuel, and oil. 6.2.1.1 If spikes or bumper bars are supplied and required b
35、y the manufacturer, test the saw with spikes in place. Locate the test planes from the root(s) of the uppermost bumper spike(s). 6.2.2 Fit a spacer, the same thickness as the bar, between the clutch cover and body and reinstall the clutch cover. The spacer shall not protrude beyond the body of the s
36、aw. 6.2.3 Secure the hand guard in the position specified by the minimum handle clearance of 35 mm (1.38 in) as required in ISO 7914. 6.2.4 Determine the planes per 6.1. 6.3 String Trimmers and Brush Cutters Use the power head and lower end shaft to determine the planes per 6.1. 6.4 Blower Test plan
37、es shall be identified per 6.1, excluding all blower tubes that can be removed without the use of tools. Where the exhaust port is vented within the blower duct, thermocouples should be attached to the outlet surface of the exhaust outlet duct. Thermocouples should be attached to the outlet surface
38、of the exhaust outlet. 6.5 Hedge Trimmers Contact planes for trimmers shall be determined per 6.1, with the cutting attachment installed.

Establish contact plane as the closest possible plane to the muffler and exhaust outlet. 6.7 Other MSE Configurations Determine planes for other configurations (that is, power drills, impact devices, a
42、nd compactors) without attachments or detachable accessories. 7. TEMPERATURE TEST Perform the following temperature tests on all MSEs: 7.1 Exposed Surface and Accumulation Area Temperature Test Measure exhaust system temperatures at the points where the engine exhaust system comes in contact with th
43、e plane surfaces established per 6.1. If the surface of the exhaust system contains pockets, recessions, or cavities which would preclude the removal of debris by gravity and/or normal operating motions of the device, the temperature in these accumulation areas must be measured. 7.1.1 Test Apparatus
44、 Use thermocouples welded or brazed to the exhaust system to determine temperatures. For chain saws, a calibrated loading device is required (Section 8). NOTE: During all tests, a thermocouple should be mounted to the cylinder head or spark plug gasket to monitor the head temperature. SAE J335 Revis
45、ed OCT2012 Page 9 of 14 7.2 Exhaust Gas Temperature Test Measure exhaust gas temperature at the points where the hottest gases impinge a plane established per 6.1. 7.2.1 Test Apparatus Use thermocouples to measure the exhaust gas temperature. For chain saws, a calibrated loading device is required.
46、For other MSE devices, excluding blowers, use of a calibrated loading device is optional. NOTE: During all tests, a thermocouple should be mounted to cylinder head or spark plug gasket to monitor head temperature. 7.3 Test Data The test data to be recorded for MSE temperature testing shall include t
47、he time, exhaust gas temperature, head and ambient temperatures, engine speed, torque and the exhaust surface temperature, if required. Recorded test data for MSEs other than chain saws may omit the torque data, if a calibrated loading device was not used. Recorded test data for MSEs other than chai
48、n saws shall include the method of loading, including the approximate percentage of the intake and/or discharge area blocked for blowers. 8. DETAILED TEMPERATURE TEST METHODS Use the following temperature test methods to test MSE exhaust systems. The ambient temperature during test runs shall be not
49、 less than 15 C (59 F). 8.1 Chain Saws 8.1.1 Preparation 8.1.1.1 Mount the test unit to the calibrated loading device as recommended by the manufacturer, without interference of the test plane. The width of the guide bar shall be simulated by an adapted guide bar or spacer of equivalent thickness. 8.1.1.2 Weld or braze surface temperature probes to all points found by the methods described in 6.1 and 6.2 where the test plane touches
