Study Notes
Philippine Agricultural Engineering Standard PAES 116:2001 - Agricultural Machinery - Small Engine - Specifications
- PAES 116:2001, also known as "The Consumer Act of the Philippines," was enacted on July 22, 1991.
- The standard specifies the requirements for construction and performance of fully equipped internal combustion engines with one or two cylinders of up to 20 kW rating used for agricultural purposes.
- References include PAES 102:2000, PAES 103:2000, and PAES 117:2000, which are normative documents containing provisions referenced in the standard.
- Definitions provided in the standard include air-cooled direct cooling system, cycle, four-stroke piston, two-stroke cycle piston, engine heat, internal combustion engine, compression ignition engine, spark ignition engine, overhead valve (OHV), side valves (SV), and water-cooled liquid-cooled indirect cooling system.
- The classification of internal combustion engines is based on the type of fuel used, type of fuel ignition system, orientation of engine cylinder, type of cooling system, arrangement of valves and camshaft, number of cycles, and type of starting system.
- Performance requirements include easy starting, attaining at least 80% of the rated maximum output power during varying load test, providing a performance curve, attaining rated continuous output power at rated engine speed, and ensuring no breakdowns during a 5-hour continuous running test.
- Other requirements cover fuel tank capacity, base durability, exhaust orientation, and cooling system suitability for tropical operations.
- Workmanship and finish requirements include specific criteria for castings, engine surfaces, and rust prevention.
- The standard also mandates a warranty against defective materials and workmanship for parts and services, except for consumable maintenance parts, within six months from the purchase of the engine.
