II. Vehicle coating industry
The total emission limit values are expressed in terms of grams of solvent emitted in relation to the surface area of product in square metres and in kilograms of solvent emitted in relation to the car body.
The surface area for any product dealt with in the table below is defined as follows:
- the surface area calculated from the total electrophoretic coating area, and the surface area of any parts that might be added in successive phases of the coating process which are coated with the same coatings as those used for the product in question, or the total surface area of the product coated in the installation.
The surface of the electrophoretic coating area is calculated using the formula:
2 x total weight of product shell
---------------------------------------------
average thickness of metal sheet x density of metal sheet
This method shall also be applied for other coated parts made out of sheets.
Data-assisted construction (DAC) or other equivalent methods shall be used to calculate the surface area of the other parts added, or the total surface area coated in the installation.
The total emission limit value in the table below refers to all process stages carried out at the same installation, from electrophoretic coating, or any other kind of coating process, through to the final wax and polish of topcoating inclusive, as well as solvent used in cleaning of process equipment, including spray booths and other fixed equipment, both during and outside of production time. The total emission limit value is expressed as the mass sum of organic compounds per m2 of the total surface area of coated product and as the mass sum of organic compounds per car body.
| Activity (solvent consumption threshold in tonnes/year) | Production threshold (refers to annual production of coated item) | Total emission limit value | |
| New installations | Existing installations | ||
| Coating of new cars (>15) | >5000 | 45 g/m2 or 1.3 kg/body + 33 g/m2 | 60 g/m2 or 1.9 kg/body + 41 g/m2 |
| </=5000 unsupported body or >3500 chassis-built | 90 g/m2 or 1.5 kg/body + 70 g/m2 | 90 g/m2 or 1.5 kg/body + 70 g/m2 | |

| Coating of new buses | </=2000 > 2000 | 210 150 | 290 225 |
Vehicle coating installations below the solvent consumption thresholds in the table above shall meet the requirements for Vehicle coating and refinishing in Appendix II A.
