This European Sta

14、ndard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by March 2010, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by March 2010.

The major technical changes between this European Standard and the previous edition are as follows: a) Adaptation of

16、 the framework for assessing the performance of procedures for measuring metals and metalloids against the general requirements for the performance of procedures for measuring chemical agents in workplace atmospheres as specified in EN 482; b) Revision of the calculation model for the uncertainty of

BS EN 13890:2009EN 13890:2009 (E) 4 Introduction This European Standard provides a framework

19、for assessing the performance of procedures for measuring metals and metalloids against the general requirements for the performance of procedures for measuring chemical agents in workplace atmospheres as specified in EN 482. It enables producers and users of procedures for measuring metals and meta

20、lloids in airborne particles to adopt a consistent approach to method validation. Although this European Standard has been written for assessing the performance of procedures for measuring metals and metalloids, it can be used as the basis for assessing the performance of procedures for measuring ot

21、her chemical agents that are present as or in airborne particles, e.g. sulphuric acid mist. BS EN 13890:2009EN 13890:2009 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies performance requirements and test methods for the evaluation of procedures for measuring metals and metalloids in airborne particle

22、s sampled onto a suitable collection substrate, e.g. a filter. This European Standard specifies a method for estimating the uncertainties associated with random and systematic errors and combining them to calculate the expanded uncertainty of the measuring procedure as a whole, as prescribed in EN 4

23、82. This European Standard is applicable to measuring procedures in which sampling and analysis is carried out in separate stages, but it does not specify performance requirements for collection, transport and storage of samples, since these are dealt with in EN 13205 and ISO 15767. This European St

24、andard is not applicable to procedures for measuring metals or metalloids present as inorganic gases or vapours, e.g. mercury, arsenic (see EN 838 and EN 1076), or to procedures for measuring metals and metalloids in compounds that could be present as a particle/vapour mixture, e.g. arsenic trioxide

30、on, instrumental detection limits are determined by repeat analysis of the calibration blank solution. For all measuring procedures, method detection limits and quantification limits are determined by analysis of laboratory blanks. The determined quantification limits are then assessed against the p

31、erformance requirements specified in 5.2.1. Analytical recovery is determined by one of a number of different methods, depending upon the nature of the measuring procedure under evaluation. For measuring procedures for soluble compounds of metals and metalloids, analytical recovery is determined by

32、analysis of spiked laboratory blanks (except for procedures that incorporate a design-based sample dissolution method (see A.1.1), for which it is taken to be 100 %). For measuring procedures for total metals and metalloids that involve sample dissolution, analytical recovery is determined by analys

33、is of pure compounds, reference materials or reference air samples. For measuring procedures for total metals and metalloids that involve analysis of the sample on the collection substrate, analytical recovery is determined by analysis of reference air samples, by the analysis of workplace air sampl

34、es that are characterised by subsequent analysis using a reference procedure or it is estimated from theory. The determined analytical recovery is then assessed against the performance requirements specified in 5.2.2. Measurement uncertainty is estimated using a structured approach. Firstly, a cause

35、 and effect diagram is constructed to identify individual random and non-random uncertainty components of a measuring procedure. After simplification to resolve any duplication, the resulting diagram is used to identify components for which uncertainty estimates are required. Each of these uncertain

36、ty components is then estimated or calculated from experimental data, combined to obtain an estimate of the uncertainty of the measurement method as a whole and multiplied by an appropriate coverage factor to calculate the expanded uncertainty of the method, following the guidance in Annex B. In acc

37、ordance with 5.2.3, the determined expanded uncertainty is then assessed against the general performance requirements specified in EN 482. 5 Requirements 5.1 Method description 5.1.1 Scope The scope of the measuring procedure shall give at least information about the following: the metals and metall

38、oids covered by the measuring procedure; the analytical technique(s) used in the measuring procedure; the range of concentrations of metals and metalloids in air for which the measuring procedure has been shown to meet the acceptance criteria for expanded uncertainty prescribed in EN 482, together w

39、ith the associated range of sampled air volumes (e.g. 0,01 mg m-3 to 0,5 mg m-3for sampled air volumes in the range 240 l to 960 l); any form of the metals and metalloids for which the sample preparation method described has been shown to be or is known to be ineffective; and any known interferences

40、. NOTE If there is no procedure for measuring a particular metal or metalloid that meets the requirements of this European Standard, a measuring procedure whose performance is nearest to the specified requirements should be used. BS EN 13890:2009EN 13890:2009 (E) 7 5.1.2 Method performance For all m

41、etals and metalloids included in the scope of the method, the measuring procedure shall give comprehensive information about method performance, including the following: the detection and quantification limits of the measuring procedure; the analytical recovery for all test materials for which the s

42、ample preparation method has been shown to be effective; all random and non-random uncertainty components of the measuring procedure, together with their estimated or experimentally determined values, and the resulting expanded uncertainty; and full details of any known interferences, including suit

43、able and sufficient information on how to minimise their effects, if applicable. 5.1.3 Safety information The measuring procedure shall provide suitable and sufficient information on the safety hazards associated with the reagents and equipment used in the procedure. 5.1.4 Samplers The measuring pro

44、cedure shall: require the user to select samplers that are designed to collect an appropriate fraction of airborne particles, as defined in EN 481, according to the particle size fraction(s) that is applicable to the limit value for the metals and metalloids of interest (e.g. an inhalable sampler, a

45、 thoracic sampler or a respirable sampler); specify that the samplers shall comply with the provisions of EN 13205; and require, if appropriate, for procedures that do not involve sample dissolution, calibration of the analytical instrument used to be sampler specific, e.g. for X-ray fluorescence sp

46、ectrometry (XRF). 5.1.5 Sampling pumps The measuring procedure shall require the user to use sampling pumps that comply with the provisions of EN 1232 or EN 12919. 5.1.6 Other requirements Where necessary, the measuring procedure shall give other requirements, e.g. for the collection substrate. 5.2

47、Performance requirements 5.2.1 Quantification limit For each metal and metalloid included in the scope of the measuring procedure, determine the lower limit of the working range of the method that will be satisfactory for the intended measurement task. For example, if the measurement task is testing

48、 compliance with long-term limit values, use Equation (1) to calculate the least amount of the metal or metalloid that needs to be quantified when it is to be determined at a concentration of 0,1 times its limit value: (1) BS EN 13890:2009EN 13890:2009 (E) 8 where is the lower limit of the required

49、analytical range of the metal or metalloid, in micrograms; is the limit value for the metal or metalloid, in milligrams per cubic metre; is the design flow rate of the sampler to be used, in litres per minute; and is the minimum sampling time that will be used, in minutes. For procedures that involve sample dissolution, calculate the lower limit of the required working range for each metal and metalloid, in micrograms per millilitre, by divi
