Transportation Applications
On-Vehicle Applications
On-vehicle applications include light-duty (car and van), heavy-duty (bus and truck), rail, ship, and aerospace. Components used in light-duty cars and vans and heavy-duty trucks and buses may require EC-79 certification for use at working pressures above 435 psig (30 bar). Specific testing is required to achieve this certification, including corrosion resistance, endurance, hydraulic pressure cycle testing, and external leakage testing. Products with this certification will be specially marked to reflect the approval.
