Workplace atmospheres - Diffusive samplers for the determination of gases and vapours - Requirements and test methods
This European Standard specifies performance requirements and test methods under prescribed laboratory conditions for a diffusive sampler used for the determination of gases or vapours in workplace atmospheres. Additional tests designed to establish whether the performance characteristics of the diffusive sampler are affected by the wider range of environmental influences that may be encountered in field use are described in annexes C and D.
Luftbeschaffenheit am Arbeitsplatz - Diffusionssammler für Gase und Dämpfe - Anforderungen und Prüfung
Diese Europäische Norm legt Leistungsanforderungen und Prüfverfahren unter vorgegebenen Laboratoriumsbedingungen für Diffusionssammler fest, die zur Bestimmung von Gasen und Dämpfen in Arbeitsbereichen verwendet werden. Zusätzliche Prüfungen, die erarbeitet werden, um festzustellen, ob die Leistungskenngrößen von Diffusionssammlern durch die größere Spannbreite von Umweltfaktoren, wie sie in der Praxis auftreten können, beeinträchtigt werden, sind in den Anhängen C und D beschrieben.
Atmosphères des lieux de travail - Echantillonneurs par diffusion pour la détermination des gaz et vapeurs - Prescriptions et méthodes d'essai
La présente norme européenne spécifie les exigences de performances et les méthodes d'essai, dans des conditions de laboratoire prescrites, pour un échantillonneur par diffusion utilisé pour la détermination des gaz ou des vapeurs présents dans l'atmosphère des lieux de travail. Les annexes C et D décrivent des essais supplémentaires, conçus pour déterminer si les caractéristiques de performances de l'échantillonneur par diffusion sont affectées par l'étendue plus vaste des variables environnementales, pouvant être rencontrées sur le terrain.
