This Technical Specification (CEN/TS) was approved by CEN on 20 May 2012 for provisional application.

The period of validity of this CEN/TS is limited initially to three years. After two years the members of CEN will be requested to submit their
comments, particularly on the question whether the CEN/TS can be converted into a European Standard.

CEN members are required to announce the existence of this CEN/TS in the same way as for an EN and to make the CEN/TS available
promptly at national level in an appropriate form. It is permissible to keep conflicting national standards in force (in parallel to the CEN/TS)
until the final decision about the possible conversion of the CEN/TS into an EN is reached.

CEN members are the national standards bodies of Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia,
Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania,
Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey and United
Kingdom.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of 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. International 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 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 by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
In other circumstances, particularly when there is an urgent market requirement for such documents, a
technical committee may decide to publish other types of document:
 an ISO Publicly Available Specification (ISO/PAS) represents an agreement between technical experts in
an ISO working group and is accepted for publication if it is approved by more than 50 % of the members
of the parent committee casting a vote;
 an ISO Technical Specification (ISO/TS) represents an agreement between the members of a technical
committee and is accepted for publication if it is approved by 2/3 of the members of the committee casting
a vote.
An ISO/PAS or ISO/TS is reviewed after three years in order to decide whether it will be confirmed for a
further three years, revised to become an International Standard, or withdrawn. If the ISO/PAS or ISO/TS is
confirmed, it is reviewed again after a further three years, at which time it must either be transformed into an
International Standard or be withdrawn.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO/TS 15011-6 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 44, Welding and allied processes,
Subcommittee SC 9, Health and safety.
ISO 15011 consists of the following parts, under the general title Health and safety in welding and allied
processes — Laboratory method for sampling fume and gases:
 Part 1: Determination of fume emission rate during arc welding and collection of fume for analysis
 Part 2: Determination of the emission rates of carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO ), nitrogen
monoxide (NO) and nitrogen dioxide (NO ) during arc welding, cutting and gouging
 Part 3: Determination of ozone emission rate during arc welding
 Part 4: Fume data sheets
 Part 5: Identification of thermal-degradation products generated when welding or cutting through products
composed wholly or partly of organic materials using pyrolysis-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry
 Part 6: Procedure for quantitative determination of fume and gases from resistance spot welding

Introduction
Welding and cutting activities generate fume and gases which can be harmful to health and should be
controlled within the limits laid down by regulations.
Determination of the particle size distribution and the qualitative analysis (metallic and organic fraction and, if
possible, speciation) of the dust collected are part of the current practices in human health risk assessment.
