The exhaust quantity depends upon the test vehicle.The factors which are most influential are the
engine cubic capacity and RPM as well as the combustion process (spark or compression
ignition).
As a safety precaution it is recommended that a CO warning device be installed in the test room.
Equation for dimensioning of exhaust suction systems (see also TRGS 554, section 4.7.4.3,
paragraph 2).
V = V
h
x n x 0.0363 x 1.2
V = necessary suction volume flow (m³/h)
V
h
= cubic capacity of the test vehicle (l)
n = engine speed of the test vehicle (rpm)
0.0363 = approximate value
1.2 = fresh air share of 20 %

Pay attention to temperature consistency. The respective exhaust suction system must be
adapted to the needs of the operator.
It is recommended that the exhaust suction system not be combined with a welding smoke
suction system and then connected to a ventilator. It is possible that a combustible or explosive
mixture may be created based (see ZH 1/454 vehicle maintenance guideline).
Example for calculation based on the equation V = V
h
x n x 0.0363 x 1,2
Example 1
Example 2
Car with 3.0 liter cubic capacity, service work
with average speed of 3000 rpm
TRUCK 12.0 Liter cubic capacity, service work
with average speed of 1500 rpm
V = 3.0 x 3000 x 0. 0363 x 1.2
V = 12.0 x 1500 x 0. 0363 x 1.2
V = 392.04 m³/h
V = 784.08 m³/h
The exhaust discharge for the auto exhaust can be done with suction hoses (air flow rate > 3000
m³/h) or with suction flaps (air flow rate approx. 10000 m³/h) .
