The CleanAIR PERMIT™ Filter Verified for Prime Power Generators

Santa Fe, NM – November 20, 2006 – CleanAIR Systems, Inc. has received verification for prime power generators by the California Air Resources Board (ARB) for their PERMIT™ diesel particulate filter as a Level 3 diesel emission control device. According to an Executive Order dated November 6th, ARB verifies that the PERMIT™ Filter reduces emissions of diesel particulate matter by 85 percent or greater for use in stationary prime generators with particulate matter (PM) levels of up to 0.2 g/bhp-hr.

Prime power stationary generators are designated as power sources operating as a principal source of power and are usually in continuous operation for long periods of time. These include generators used in remote areas as a primary power source, as well as those used for self-generation by corporations, schools or hospitals producing their own power.

The ARB also extended verification of CleanAIR Systems’ PERMIT™ filter until 2009 for use on stationary emergency generators to include all applications tested or certified to particulate matter (PM) levels of up to 0.2 g/bhp-hr. Emergency generators operate usually less than one hundred hours per year and are used as supplemental or back-up power generation in case of power loss.

For complete verification information on the PERMIT™ diesel particulate filter and engine operating criteria, the Executive Orders and Attachments can be found on the ARB website at: http://www.arb.ca.gov/diesel/verdev/vt/stationary.htm.
