19、4 Introduction National laws and regulations based on European Directives require the assessment of the potential exposure of a worker to chemical agents in workplace atmospheres. EN 45544, Workplace atmospheres Electrical apparatus used for the direct detection and direct concentration measurement

20、of toxic gases and vapours, consists of the following parts: Part 1: General requirements and test methods; Part 2: Performance requirements for apparatus used for exposure measurement; Part 3: Performance requirements for apparatus used for general gas detection; Part 4: Guide for selection, instal

21、lation, use and maintenance. EN 45544 series is based on EN 482 which specifies general performance requirements for procedures for measuring the concentration of chemical agents in workplace atmospheres. These performance requirements are intended to apply under environmental conditions present at

22、the workplace. However, because a wide range of environmental conditions are encountered in practice, this document specifies requirements that have to be fulfilled by measuring procedures when tested under prescribed laboratory conditions. EN 45544-2 details the performance requirements outlined in

23、 EN 482 specifically for electrical apparatus used for the direct detection and direct concentration measurement of toxic gases and vapours intended for exposure measurement. EN 45544-3 details the performance requirements for general gas detection apparatus, e.g. safety warning, leak detection. The

24、 measuring range will be defined by the manufacturer. In general, the requirements for accuracy will be higher for EN 45544-2 apparatus than for EN 45544-3 apparatus. The same apparatus may be used for applications covered by EN 45544-2 and EN 45544-3. EN 45544 series will help manufacturers, test l

25、aboratories and users of apparatus to adopt a consistent approach to, and provide a framework for, the assessment of performance criteria. It is the manufacturers primary responsibility to ensure that the apparatus meets the requirements laid down in this European Standard including environmental in

26、fluences which can be expected to affect performance. Electrical apparatus used for the direct detection and direct concentration measurement of toxic gases and vapours generate readings in clean air (zero readings) which vary with environmental conditions and time. This standard therefore also incl

27、udes test methods and requirements for acceptable variations in zero readings. BS EN 45544-3:2015EN 45544-3:2015 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies the performance requirements for electrical apparatus used for the direct detection and direct concentration measurement of toxic gases and

28、vapours in workplace atmospheres. This European Standard is applicable to apparatus used for general gas detection. EXAMPLE Safety warning and leak detection are examples of general gas detection. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this
