This SAE Standard describes a procedure to be used to evaluate a disturbance known as “idle gear rattle” which can exist in vehicles equipped with manual transmissions and clutches. Other types of noises associated with operation at idle are also briefly described.

This SAE Recommended Practice is intended to serve as a reference for the amount of torque that a Power Take-Off can induce on the transmission mounting pad. This document will apply to six-bolt, eight-bolt, and rear mounted power take-offs.

This SAE Recommended Practice applies to all forms of diesel and natural gas engines fueled by the combination of diesel fuel and natural gas.

This SAE Recommended Practice establishes a single bolt pattern for the No. 1 clutch housing (see Figure 1) and the No. 2 clutch housing (see Figure 2). These four bolt patterns are designated to give commonality of mounting brackets in existing frame rails. The 420 mm (16.5 in) span, pad face to pad face, allows the ease of installation in existing frame rail widths. This is also the minimum spacing which will accommodate commonly used clutches.

The accompanying mounting and gear locations are applicable for all general installations of power take-off on the transmission gear box of motor trucks and tractors where the size of the transmission permits. The heavy-duty type opening can be adapted to the regular-duty type by the use of an adapter with 6.35 mm (0.25 in) flange thickness with appropriate bolt pattern and thread engagement. (See Figures 1 and 2.)

This report is intended to provide the information to estimate the accessory load of a typical heavy truck or bus. The components covered include: air compressors, alternators, refrigerant compressors, engine cooling fans and power steering pumps. The values show an estimate of the average power requirements and duty cycles for these accessories. This report does not address loads required for engine operation. Required systems include those needed for engine performance such as fuel pumps and electronic control modules (ECM).

The accessory components covered by this information report include: air brake compressors, alternators, air conditioning compressors, engine cooling fans and drives, and power steering pumps. The values show an estimate of the average power requirements of known duty cycles of these engine drive accessories.

The procedure covers the estimation of the total retardation capability available to a specific vehicle from: a Natural retardation (rolling resistance, aerodynamic drag, etc). b Engine drag c Engine, integral automatic transmission, driveline or trailer-axle retarders It assumes that foundation brakes are not used for maintaining speed on long mountain descents. Retardation is rated in terms of the maximum grades on which stable control speeds can be maintained for each gear over the range of highway speeds appropriate to that gear. For each gear, the calculation procedure determines maximum grades for at least four values of control speed ranging from the vehicle velocity corresponding to full load governed engine rpm, to the vehicle velocity corresponding to the engine rpm at minimum (idle) speed. In addition, the calculation procedure provides information on the total retarding power available for each gear.

Although not limited to, these clutches are normally used in Class 7 and 8 trucks.

Product for which data is to be available is for class 6 and larger, i.e., gross vehicle weight > 9.6 kg (19 500 lb).

Drain and Fill plugs used on engines, transmissions, transfer cases and front and rear drive axles for class 5 – 8 vehicles.

This SAE Recommended Practice takes into account modern standardized methods for collecting and summarizing data that has an effect on vehicle steady-state performance, such as engine output (gross and net), transmission losses, drivetrain efficiency, vehicle aerodynamic devices for various vehicle and body configurations, as well as road surface variations and air density variations resulting from altitude and barometric effects. The procedure does not address vehicle transient performance (acceleration, braking, and cornering), because of the considerable amount of additional data required such as moment of inertia of all the rotating parts. Nor does it address vehicles with torque converters and automatic transmissions. This document is, therefore, intended for vehicles having fixed-ratio type transmissions and positive engagement clutches. Metric and ISO unit conversions are provided in the metric conversion tables at the end of this procedure (see Appendix B).
