Stationary source emissions - Demonstration of equivalence of an alternative method with a reference method
This European Standard specifies a procedure to demonstrate the equivalence of an alternative method (AM) with the reference method (RM) or the standard reference method (SRM), both implemented to determine the same measurand.
In particular, this European Standard provides the statistical tools and different criteria to evaluate the alternative method. This does not release the body performing the equivalence testing from bearing technical and analytical judgement on the evaluation of the different criteria.
Three steps are required for demonstration of equivalence:
description of the alternative method and setting of the field of application (measurement range and type of gas matrix);
determination of the performance characteristics of the alternative method and calculation of the expanded uncertainty where appropriate and check of compliance with the maximum expanded uncertainty allowed for the reference method;
check of repeatability and lack of systematic deviation of the alternative method in the field or on a recognized test bench in comparison with the reference method for the type of matrix defined in the field of equivalence.
This European Standard requires that a reference method has been defined and validated.
This European Standard only considers the case of linear quantitative methods.
This European Standard has been drawn up for laboratories working in air quality measurements and consequently an example taken from this sector are presented in Annex A.
Emissionen aus stationären Quellen - Nachweis der Gleichwertigkeit eines Alternativverfahrens mit einem Referenzverfahren
Diese Europäische Norm legt ein Verfahren zum Nachweis der Gleichwertigkeit eines Alternativverfahrens (AM) mit dem Referenzverfahren (RM) oder dem Standardreferenzverfahren (SRM) fest, wobei beide zur Bestimmung derselben Messgröße eingesetzt werden.
Diese Europäische Norm enthält insbesondere die statistischen Methoden und verschiedene Kriterien zur Bewertung des Alternativverfahrens. Das entbindet aber nicht die für den Nachweis der Gleichwertigkeit zuständige Stelle von der Aufgabe, die Auswertung der verschiedenen Kriterien technisch und analytisch zu beurteilen.
Der Nachweis der Gleichwertigkeit beinhaltet drei Schritte:
Beschreibung des Alternativverfahrens und Festlegung des Anwendungsbereichs (Messbereich und Art der Abgasmatrix);
Bestimmung der Verfahrenskenngrößen des Alternativverfahrens und gegebenenfalls Berechnung der erweiterten Unsicherheit sowie Überprüfung der Einhaltung der maximal zulässigen erweiterten Unsicherheit für das Referenzverfahren;
Überprüfung der Wiederholpräzision und des Fehlens systematischer Abweichungen des Alternativverfahrens beim Einsatz im Feld oder an einem anerkannten Prüfstand durch Vergleich mit dem Referenzverfahren für die Art der Abgasmatrix, die im Äquivalenzbereich festgelegt ist.
Diese Europäische Norm setzt voraus, dass das Referenzverfahren eindeutig festgelegt und validiert wurde.
Diese Europäische Norm ist nur bei linearen quantitativen Verfahren anwendbar.
Diese Europäische Norm ist auf manuelle und automatische Verfahren anwendbar.
Diese Europäische Norm wurde für Laboratorien erstellt, die Messungen im Bereich der Luftreinhaltung durchführen. Anhang A zeigt deshalb ein entsprechendes Beispiel aus diesem Bereich.

Emisije nepremičnih virov - Dokazovanje enakovrednosti alternativne metode z referenčno metodo
Ta evropski standard določa postopek za dokazovanje enakovrednosti alternativne metode z referenčno metodo ali standardno referenčno metodo (SRM), pri čemer sta obe uporabljeni za določanje istih merjenih veličin.
Ta evropski standard podaja predvsem statistična orodja in različna merila za ovrednotenje alternativne metode. S tem organ za izvajanje enakovrednega preskušanja ni oproščen tehnične in analitične presoje pri ocenjevanju različnih meril.
Za prikaz enakovrednosti so zahtevani trije koraki:
opis alternativne metode in določitev področja uporabe (merilno območje in vrsta plinske matrike);
določitev lastnosti zmogljivosti alternativne metode in izračun razširjene negotovosti, kjer je to ustrezno, ter preverjanje skladnosti pri največji razširjeni negotovosti, ki je dovoljena za referenčno metodo;
preverjanje ponovljivosti in pomanjkanje sistematičnega odstopanja alternativne metode na terenu ali v priznanem preskusnem okolju v primerjavi z referenčno metodo za vrsto matrike, opredeljeno za enakovredno področje.
Ta evropski standard zahteva opredelitev in potrditev referenčne metode.
Ta evropski standard zajema samo linearne kvantitativne metode.
Ta evropski standard je bil pripravljen za laboratorije, ki izvajajo meritve kakovosti zraka, zato je primer za ta sektor na voljo v dodatku A.

NOTE The term “reference method” is used in this standard to cover reference methods as well as standard reference methods. In the framework of certification of automated measuring systems used for the measurement of stationary source emissions this European Standard can be used in conjunction with EN 15267-4:2017 to demonstrate the equivalence of portable automated measuring systems (P-AMS) based on an AM with the standard reference method (SRM).
In particular, this European Standard provides the statistical tools and different criteria to evaluate the alternative method. This does not release the body performing the equivalence testing from bearing technical and analytical judgement on the evaluation of the different criteria. Three steps are required for demonstration of equivalence: — description of the alternative method and setting of the field of application (measurement range and type of gas matrix); — determination of the performance characteristics of the alternative method and calculation of the expanded uncertainty where appropriate and check of compliance with the maximum expanded uncertainty allowed for the reference method; — check of repeatability and lack of systematic deviation of the alternative method in the field or on a recognized test bench in comparison with the reference method for the type of matrix defined in the field of equivalence. This European Standard requires that a reference method has been defined and validated. This European Standard only considers the case of linear quantitative methods. This European Standard is applicable to manual and automated methods.
This European Standard has been drawn up for laboratories working in air quality measurements and consequently an example taken from this sector are presented in Annex A. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.
