This SAE Standard covers the minimum requirements for design, construction, and testing of devices to prevent the propagation of backfire flame from within the gasoline engine to the surrounding atmosphere.
Rationale
The use of non-metallic materials in flame arrestors and induction systems is becoming more prevalent throughout the Marine Industry. Inclusion of a heat-aging test as proposed in this standard provides a means to insure these materials will meet the requirements of the Marine Environment.
Throttle bodies have been added to the document as they are required by law to have the same flame arresting protection as carburetors and induction systems.
The document’s relationship to ISO 13592 has been added to the document.
Tolerances were changed/added to update the document to realistic and current practices.
The UL94 rating was added to provide a current flammability rating for non-metallic materials.
The Marine Technical Committee develops and maintains SAE Standards, Recommended Practices and Information Reports for the development, production, application and testing of marine vehicles and equipment. The committee also maintains liaison with the American Boat & Yacht Council (ABYC), Canadian Coast Guard (CCG), International Council of Marine Industry Association (ICOMIA), International Organization for Standardization (ISO), National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA), United States Coast Guard (USCG), and other organizations as necessary. The subcommittees formed under the committee's direction include: Marine Engine Fuel Systems Marine Electrical Systems Participants in the SAE Marine Technical Committee include OEMs, suppliers, consulting firms, government and other interested parties.
* 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.
