20、N ISO 16170:2016ISO 16170:2016(E)ForewordISO (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 inter

21、ested 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

22、 Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the different types of ISO docume

23、nts should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).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

24、 for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).Any trade name used in this document is information given for th

27、escribed in a number of existing standards. These specify procedures for quality assurance following manufacture (e.g. ISO 29463 and EN 1822).Some other standards specify the filter medium used in such devices, how they are constructed and how they are installed within industrial facilities.Installa

28、tions of high efficiency particulate filters are extensively used within nuclear and toxic material processing plants and laboratories to confine these materials within the facility and prevent their discharge to the environment.Radioactive and other toxic materials are confined within processing fa

29、cilities inside containment zones bordered by barriers. Air and gases vented from these zones are decontaminated by passage through a series of highly efficient particulate filters before final discharge to the environment. The membrane (filter medium) of the filters acts as part of the containment

30、barrier. In view of its perceived fragility, confirmation of its integrity is required on a periodic basis because operational safety cases depend on the knowledge that the effectiveness of these filters is maintained at all times. These periodic checks are made by the procedure(s) known as “in-situ

31、” or “in-place” testing.The basic principles of in situ tests on installed filters are the same as for laboratory tests, such as those described in EN 1822 and ISO 29463, insofar as known quantities of a challenge aerosol are dispersed into the airstream upstream of the filter installation; the part

32、iculate contents of the unfiltered and filtered air are sampled and analysed to determine whether the integrity of the filters has been compromised.In the case of testing a single unit (manufacturers production test or in the case of a laboratory testing on a single filter unit), the purpose is to c

33、onfirm that the unit performance efficiency/penetration at Most Penetrating Particle Size (MPPS) and other parameters lies within specified limits, and further, that the results are globally reproducible. To achieve this requires the use of a laboratory test rig setup with full dispersion of a chall

34、enge aerosol, prescribed geometry of the test rig, and to obtain and analyse fully representative particulate samples both upstream and downstream of the test filter. Some ventilation systems are highly complex and it should be noted that many facilities use ventilation systems in which a high perce

35、ntage of the air is recirculated.The purpose of an in situ test is to detect any adverse change in the filtration performance of the installation and to compare it with the expected efficiency or decontamination factor. Such a change might be caused by deterioration of a unit or units or a faulty se

36、aling system and would be manifested by the appearance of a proportion of unfiltered aerosol in the effluent airstream. Testing methodologies developed in this International Standard do not cover the other requirements that relate to filters in terms of mechanical resistance, burst strength or tempe

37、rature and moisture resistance.It is neither fully necessary nor useful for the results of an in situ test to replicate the results of production tests on the individual filters in the installation, nor is it necessary to confine the test aerosol size distribution to one which replicates that used i

38、n production tests.No International Standard for general in situ testing of high efficiency filters has been produced before, explaining the needs for such an International Standard.This International Standard describes the requirements for test equipment, data interpretation and reporting for the i

39、n situ testing of HEPA and ULPA air cleaning installations designed for the removal of airborne particulate contamination in high-integrity ventilation systems.This International Standard includes specification of the test interval, aerosol type, aerosol mixing and measurement methods, i.e. the foll

42、DARD ISO 16170:2016(E)In situ test methods for high efficiency filter systems in industrial facilities1 ScopeThis International Standard specifies in situ test methods for high efficiency particulate air filters used to limit releases towards the environment (e.g. from nuclear facilities or faciliti

43、es with aerosol toxic or biological releases). This applies where installations of these filters are used to clean effluent air before discharge to the environment from industrial (including nuclear) installations where toxic/radioactive/biological materials are handled or processed.This Internation

44、al Standard excludes the application already covered by ISO 14644-3.The scope of this International Standard includes detail of two methods, either of which applies to the periodic testing of high efficiency filters which are used in demanding applications aiming at protecting the environment, such

45、as the nuclear industry.In the case of nuclear applications, this International Standard is applicable to installations covered by ISO 17873 (applications other than nuclear reactors) and ISO 26802 (nuclear reactors).The two reference methods specified in this International Standard are not equivale

46、nt, but related to, the requirements to be addressed by the test results. The choice of which of the two methods is adopted in any specific case depends on whether the outcome requires an integrity test or a statutory efficiency accountancy test.For industries handling or processing radioactive or t

47、oxic materials giving rise to a risk of possible release, the main goal of the tests is to confirm that the filter installation is fit for purpose. In the case of integrity tests (Annex B), this is to confirm that no significant leakage of toxic aerosols through the filter installation is possible.I

48、n the case of efficiency accountancy tests (Annex C), the test is designed to make an accurate measurement of decontamination factor with respect to the MPPS size range of particles.The reference method described in Annex B (integrity test) requires a test aerosol of dispersed oil particles mainly s

49、ubmicrometre in size range, which is stable during the test procedure and compatible with other installation components. Particle concentrations are measured in real time by light scattering instrumentation (optical detectors).The reference method described in Annex C (efficiency accountancy test) requires a test aerosol of particles having a narrow size range centred on MPPS size range for HEPA filter media. Their concentration both upstream and downstream the filters is measured by fluorimetric analysis of aqueous solution obtained by wa
