Calibration and Qualification of the Apparatus10.1 Before use, the instrument must be calibrated accord-ing to the procedure

36、 described in Annex A1. This calibrationcan be performed by the instrument manufacturer prior todelivery of the instrument to the end user. If, after maintenance,the instrument calibration is repeated, the qualification proce-dure must also be repeated.10.2 Before use, the instrument must be qualifi

37、ed accordingto the procedure described in AnnexA1. The qualification needonly be carried out when the instrument is initially put intooperation, recalibrated, or repaired.11. Quality Control Checks11.1 Confirm the calibration of the instrument each day it isused by measuring the benzene concentratio

38、n using the proce-dure outlined in Section 12 on at least one quality controlsample of known benzene content. The preparation of knownbenzene concentration is described in 11.1.1 and 11.1.2.11.1.1 Standard(s) of known benzene concentration shall bemade up by mass according to A1.1 and converted to v

39、olume% using the measured density as outlined in Section 13.Atleast one standard shall be made up at 1.2 (6 0.2) mass %benzene, that is, nominally 1.0 volume %.Additional standardsmay also be prepared and used for quality control checks.11.1.2 Standard(s) should be prepared in sufficient volumeto al

40、low for a minimum of 30 quality control measurements tobe made on one batch of material. Package or store, or both,quality control samples to ensure that all analyses of qualitycontrol samples from a given lot are performed on essentiallyidentical material.11.2 If the benzene volume % value estimate

41、d for thequality control sample prepared at 1.2 mass % benzene differsfrom the known value by more than 0.12 volume %, then themeasurement system is out-of-control and cannot be used toestimate benzene concentrations until the cause of the out-of-control behavior is identified and corrected.11.3 If

42、correction of out-of-control behavior requires repairto the instrument or recalibration of the instrument, thequalification of instrument performance described in A1.3 shallbe performed before the system is used to measure benzenecontent on samples.12. Procedure12.1 Equilibrate the samples to betwee

43、n 15 and 38C beforeanalysis.12.2 Clean the sample cell. If a separate baseline using theempty cell is required, and if residual fuel is in the sample cell,remove the fuel by flushing the cell and inlet-outlet lines withenough pentane to ensure complete washing. Evaporate theresidual pentane with eit

44、her dry air or nitrogen.12.3 If needed, obtain a baseline spectrum in the mannerestablished by the manufacturer of the equipment.12.4 Prior to the analysis of unknown test samples, establishthat the equipment is running properly by collecting thespectrum of the quality control standard(s), by analyz

45、ing thespectrum with the calibration model, and by comparing theestimated benzene concentration to the known value for the QCstandard(s). Introduce enough standard to the cell to ensure thatthe cell is washed a minimum of three times with the standardsolution.12.5 Introduce the unknown fuel sample i

46、n the mannerestablished by the manufacturer. Introduce enough of the fuelsample to the cell to ensure the cell is washed a minimum ofthree times with the fuel.12.6 Obtain the spectral response of the fuel sample.12.6.1 If a filter based mid IR instrument is used, acquire theabsorbance for the fuel s
