20、f national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. In

21、ternational organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with

22、the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval

23、 by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights.

For some ultrafine aerosols and nanoaerosols, other exposure metr

26、ics such as the number and surface area concentration are likely to become important for predicting health effects, depending on chemical and physical properties. This International Standard provides a method for determining the number concentration and size distribution of ultrafine aerosols and na

27、noaerosols at workplaces by using differential mobility analysing systems (DMASs). This can be used by occupational hygienists and researchers to measure the concentration at some workplaces. The system is generally not suitable for personal exposure measurements. BS EN ISO 28439:2011BS EN ISO 28439

29、andard provides guidelines for the determination of the number concentration and size distribution of ultrafine aerosols and nanoaerosols by use of mobility particle sizers (also called differential mobility analysers). Only the particle fraction of the aerosol is considered. For ultrafine aerosols

30、and nanoaerosols, exposure metrics such as the number and surface area concentration are important. This International Standard also gives guidelines for the determination of workplace exposure to ultrafine aerosols and nanoaerosols. Specifically, the differential mobility analysing system (DMAS), n

31、ow available from several vendors, is discussed. Principles of operation, problems of sampling in the workplace environment, calibration, equipment maintenance, measurement uncertainty, and reporting of measurement results are covered. Potential problems and limitations are described, which need to

32、be addressed when limit values are fixed and compliance measurements carried out. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

45、al mobility diameter, in metres. The critical particle electrical mobility, Zcrit, is directly related to the geometric dimensions of the DEMC. The equivalent particle electrical mobility diameter, dp, can be determined from equations provided by the instrument manufacturer. Particles of a certain s

46、ize or size interval are counted in a condensation nuclei counter (CNC) also known as a condensation particle counter (CPC) or electrometer, and the particle number concentration for each size or size interval is determined. By scanning or stepwise changing the voltage of the DEMC, a number size dis

47、tribution is obtained. The size range from 3 nm to 1 000 nm in electrical mobility diameter can be partly covered by different instruments (see Reference 8). The DEMC has the advantage that the electrical mobility diameter is approximately equivalent to the projected-area diameter of particles (defi

48、ned as the diameter of a sphere with the same projected area as the particles being sized) with compact geometries. The entire number concentration is obtained by adding or integrating all size channels. Though the composition of the sampled particles cannot be obtained, the distribution of surface

49、area and volume concentration in some instances, e.g. if the particles are known to be spherical, can be estimated from calculations provided by the manufacturer or in the literature.
