Scope: What is ISO 24162 - RCV energy consumption testing about? Refuse collection vehicles (RCVs) carry all types of garbage, waste, and hazardous material. Proper maintenance and functioning of RCVs ensures optimum functioning. ISO 24162 is an International Standard that discusses the test method for energy consumption of RCVs. ISO 24162 specifies a uniform, reproducible testing process for various drive units, chassis, constructions, and lifting devices for the refuse collection vehicles described in EN 1501 (all parts, excluding EN 1501 ‑ 4 ), with which comparison for energy consumption can be performed. This specification defines the criteria for a reference area with regard to a synthesized tour (test circuit). This, therefore, serves to determine a representative test circuit and/or data for a software calculation tool, e.g. VECTO1). Note: VECTO (Vehicle Energy Consumption calculation TOol) is a simulation tool that has been developed by the European Commission for determining CO2 emissions and fuel consumption from heavy-duty vehicles with a gross vehicle mass above 3 500 kg. Who is ISO 24162 - RCV energy consumption testing for? ISO 24162 on RCV energy consumption testing is applicable to policymakers, planners, administrators, manufacturers, and users. Specifically, ISO 24162 is useful f...
