Purpose, Practice, Rationale and Scope 1.1 Purpose This standard seeks

16、 to provide manufacturers and end users of diffusive samplers with guidance concerning the tests to be used in evaluating samplers for various air sampling applications. This standard is not intended as a means of sampler classification, nor as a means by which the performance of different samplers

17、can be strictly compared. 1.2 Practice The standard includes evaluation parameters which are used to characterize diffusive samplers with respect to their ability to determine the concentrations of gases and vapors in working environments. The reporting and labeling requirements of this standard wil

18、l permit informed users to properly select and use the subject devices in measuring time-weighted-average workplace exposures in compliance with exposure limit values (ELVs) and for other purposes. 1.3 Rationale While this standard employs test methods similar to those described under Section 3, Ref

19、erences, it differs from the others by: a) allowing a greater freedom in selecting the evaluation parameters, b) refraining from mandating specific performance requirements, and c) mandating detailed disclosure of performance results. Since diffusive samplers will be used under various conditions (f

20、rom extreme to mild environments) with a variety of objectives (from routine screening by employers to assessments of workplaces by regulators), the standard seeks to include all devices which are useful for a certain purpose rather than requiring that all devices included meet the requirements of a

21、ll situations and environments. The disclosure features of the standard, including Evaluation Parameters and Test Report, are designed to permit users of samplers/monitors to select those devices meeting the requirements of their particular application. 1.4 Scope For the purposes of this standard, d

22、iffusive sampling devices are categorized as follows: Type A. Devices which provide on-site reading of time-weighted-average (TWA) gas or vapor concentration. Type B. Devices which utilize a sorbent to collect an air sample and use laboratory analysis to determine time-weighted average (TWA) concent

23、rations. 2. Determination of Standard Compliance Compliance with this standard shall be established by the test report which details the test methods and evaluation parameters used in accordance with this standard. The testing laboratory is free to select test parameters (e.g., temperature, humidity

24、, concentration, sampling time period) for the two-factor or multi-factorial tests listed in Section 6. However, this choice will impose ANSI/ISEA 104-1998 (R2009) 8 limitations on the use of samplers/monitors since use outside of the range of conditions encompassed by the test parameters is not rec

25、ommended. Modification or elimination of any test method or evaluation parameter is allowed, provided the rationale is fully outlined in the test report. The precision and accuracy of the sampler/monitor may be determined from the results of this test evaluation. Statistical methods for accomplishin

26、g this are given by many of the references in Section 3 (see ASTM D6246, EN 838 and Cassinelli et al). The requirement for a specific level of precision and accuracy will depend on the use to which the results will be put (e.g., to demonstrate compliance with local regulations). The precision and ac

27、curacy of samplers/monitors will also depend on the extent of their measurement range. 3.

Note: Desorption efficiency is affected by many factors, includi

34、ng the method of chemical application, the ratio of mass of chemical to mass of sorbent, the presence of co-absorbed species (especially water vapor), the time of equilibrium prior to desorption, and the method of desorption. diffusive sampler/monitor: An air sampling device which continuously colle

Exposure Limit Value (ELV): Any recognized value such as PEL, TLV, etc., commonly expressed in parts per million (ppm) by volume or milli

The limit is frequently expressed as a time-weighted average exposure for up to ten hours

40、a day during a forty-hour work week. The REL may also be expressed as a short-term exposure limit that should never be exceeded and is to be determined in a specified time-period which is usually fifteen minutes, or it can be a ceiling limit never to be exceeded even instantaneously unless specified

Test Apparatus and Calibration Procedures

44、 5.1 The generation of a test atmosphere and the proper construction and maintenance of a test chamber are requirements for accurate testing of diffusive sampler performance. Guidance on the generation of test atmospheres is given in the text by Nelson and in EN 838 (see Section 3). The general requ

45、irements are: 5.1.1 A system for generating, pre-mixing and delivering a known concentration of a test atmosphere. 5.1.2 An test chamber, constructed of inert materials through which the generated atmosphere is passed. 5.1.3 Provisions for measuring, controlling, and varying, the rate of air flow th

46、rough the test chamber and the concentration, temperature and relative humidity of test atmosphere. 5.2 Validated reference sampling methods or instruments shall be used to determine the concentration of the test ANSI/ISEA 104-1998 (R2009) 10 atmosphere in the test chamber. Depletion of the atmosphe

47、re by system losses including the test and reference samplers can be measured by determining the concentration at the inlet and outlet of the test chamber, and should not exceed 10%. After adjusting for depletion, the test chamber concentration as given by the reference method should be within 10% o

48、f the theoretical concentration calculated from the dynamics of the test atmosphere generation system, in which case the theoretical concentration is taken to be the “true” concentration. If the values are not within 10%, adjustments shall be made or an alternative generation system shall be used or

49、 the reference method concentration shall be used as the “true” concentration. 6. Test Methods 6.1 General The evaluation parameters chosen for these test methods will define the operating limits of the sampler/monitor. The recommended values for the parameters under the test will provide test results which are applicable to common industrial environments. Should the sampler/monitor be intended for use outside this range of conditions, appropriate parameters shall be chosen for the test. For samplers/monitors designed for long-term measurements (30 minutes) the appropriate exposure
