Common use of Ambient conditions Clause in Contracts

Ambient conditions. The test shall be conducted under the ambient conditions laid down in this section. The ambient conditions become ‘extended’ when at least one of the temperature or altitude conditions is extended. The factor for extended conditions as defined in paragraph 10.5. shall only be applied once even if both conditions are extended in the same time period. Notwithstanding the opening 2 The distinguishing numbers of the Contracting Parties to the 1958 Agreement are reproduced in Annex 3 to the Consolidated Resolution on the Construction of Vehicles (R.E.3), document ECE/TRANS/WP.29/78/Rev.6 – Annex 3, ▇▇▇▇▇://▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇/transport/standards/transport/vehicle-regulations-wp29/resolutions. paragraph of this section, if a part of the test or the entire test is performed outside of extended conditions, the test shall be invalid only when final emissions as calculated in Annex 11, are greater than the applicable emission limits. The conditions are as follows: Moderate altitude conditions Altitude lower or equal to 700 meters above sea level. Extended altitude conditions Altitude higher than 700 meters above sea level and lower or equal to 1300 meters above sea level. Moderate temperature conditions Greater than or equal to 273.15 K (0 °C) and lower than or equal to 308.15 K (35 °C). Extended temperature conditions Greater than or equal to 266.15 K (– 7 °C) and lower than 273.15 K (0 °C) or greater than308.15 K (35 °C) and lower than or equal to311.15 K (38 °C).
