Notes:
NOx [g/kW-hr]

*Projected or Proposed
1. For U.S. Tier 4, optional 0.30 g/kW-hr PM standard for engines
37-55 kW in 2008. Selecting this option allows a one-year delay of
Tier 4 Final implementation, from 2012 to 2013.
2. For Japan, Tier 4A italics represent number of months in flex grace
period, in which Tier 3 products can continue to be produced.
The chart above is displayed for reference purposes only and does
not depict the various options available to engine and equipment
manufacturers. See the appropriate regulations for specific details
and options related to that regions emissions standards and
