This SAE Recommended Practice describes a method to collect, identify, and quantify effluent resulting from deployment of in-vehicle stored energy restraint systems. Deployment and collection is completed in a 2.83 m3 (100 ft3 ) chamber. This procedure is written as a guideline for the identification and quantification of both particulate effluent (size, concentration, and composition) and gaseous effluent (concentration and composition). The intent of this procedure is to describe and recommend testing methods and not to establish limits for the effluent. This procedure should be used in conjunction with performance specifications from the customer and/or manufacturer of the device(s) being tested. This is a general procedure for repetitive and comparative testing, and suggests only general guidelines for the safe conduct of tests and reliable data correlation.
Rationale
This document outlines a procedure that, according to experts in the field, is unlikely to change in any significant way in the foreseeable future. Though the procedure is still conducted in many labs, and it is referenced in related documents, its use has diminished. The document's usage may be inferred from the following SAE purchasing data:
The primary objective of the Inflatable Restraints Standards Committee (IRSC) is to utilize the experience, knowledge and technical skills of its membership to address engineering problems that fall within the scope of members’ activities and interests. IRSC members, working in small groups or within Task Forces, carry out the following tasks: • develop, implement and validate all necessary investigations and studies to prepare Technical Reports, Information Reports and Recommended Practices; • work with industry, government, academia, regulatory bodies and other SAE committees in advising, consulting and exchanging pertinent technical information and data; • periodically review and revise Technical Reports, Information Reports and Recommended Practices to maintain their technical integrity, usefulness and clarity; • assist other committees, task forces or groups that could benefit from the IRSC members’ broad technical expertise and knowledge base.
* Redlines comparisons are available for those standards
listed in the Revision History that contain a radio button. A
redline comparison of the current version against a revision is
accomplished by selecting the radio button next to the standard and
then selecting 'compare'. At this time, Redline versions only exist
for some AMS standards. SAE will continue to add redline versioning
with ongoing updates to SAE MOBILUS.

SAE MOBILUS® Search Tips
Please note: All terms not contained within quotes, will be evaluated using the OR operator. This means that your search results will contain all results that contain ANY of the entered terms.
AND, OR, NOT
SAE MOBILUS supports the use of the AND, OR and NOT BOOLEAN operators ONLY function with the Advanced Search.
Wild Cards
Using the asterisk, ( * ) allows you to search for a partial word. For example, entering a keyword search of aero* will search for any word beginning with aero.
Using the question mark, ( ? ) allows you to search for a word with a single character wildcard. For example, searching for t?re would match both tire and tyre
Using Quotes
Words in double quotes " " are treated as a phrase. Conducting a search for "heat model" will return all results in which the exact phrase "heat model" is found, while "heat modeling" would NOT be included.
A term combined with a phrase will be joined with an OR operator.
Searching for Standards
When searching for a standard please use the entire Document Number assigned, which includes the abbreviation. A space can be used, or omitted between the abbreviation and number.
