This document together with EN 13205-2, CEN/TR 13205-3, EN 13205-4, EN 13205-5 and EN 13205-6 will supersede EN 13205:2001. EN 13205, Workplace exposure Assessment of sa

Significant technical changes from the previous edition, EN 13205:2001: This part of EN 13205

27、 is based on Clauses 1 to 8 of the previous edition, EN 13205:2001. The scope has been limited to aerosol samplers, and the current version of the standard is not (directly) applicable to other types of aerosol instruments. The list of definitions has been expanded and many definitions are now given

28、 in EN 1540, Workplace exposure Terminology. The method of calculating the uncertainty of a sampler or a measuring procedure has been revised in order to comply with ENV 13005. The concept of “overall uncertainty” is no longer used, instead the concept of “expanded uncertainty” is used. The list of

29、Requirements (Table 1) has been reformulated/changed for some attributes. The current version of the standard envisages two different types of tests: A test of a candidate aerosol sampler and a test of a complete measuring method based on a candidate sampler, respectively. Two flow charts, one for e

30、ach type of test, have been included to better demonstrate the relation between the different parts of EN 13205. Annex A has been added on how to calculate the expanded uncertainty for a measuring procedure based on aerosol sampling but also consisting of several other stages. This is a complete rev

31、ision and expansion of Annex E in the previous version. A clause on symbols has been included. According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus

DIN EN 13205-1:2014-09 EN 13205-1:2014(E)5 Introduction EN 481 defines sampling conventions for the particle size fractions to be collected from workplace atmospheres in order to assess their impact on human health. Conventions are defined for the inh

34、alable, thoracic and respirable aerosol fractions. These conventions represent target specifications for aerosol samplers, giving the ideal sampling efficiency as a function of particle aerodynamic diameter. In general, the sampling efficiency of real aerosol samplers will deviate from the target sp

35、ecification, and the aerosol mass collected will therefore differ from that which an ideal sampler would collect. In addition, the behaviour of real samplers is influenced by many factors such as external wind speed. In many cases there is an interaction between the influence factors and fraction of

36、 the airborne particle size distribution of the environment in which the sampler is used. EN 482 contains general performance requirements for methods used for determining the concentrations of chemical agents in workplace atmospheres. These performance requirements include maximum values of expande

37、d uncertainty (a combination of random and non-random measurement uncertainty) achievable under prescribed laboratory conditions for the methods to be used. The requirements of EN 482 apply to a complete measuring procedure, a combination of the stages consisting of sampling, sample transport/storag

38、e and sample preparation/analysis. This part of EN 13205 gives performance requirements for samplers for the inhalable, thoracic or respirable aerosol fractions. Requirements for the aerosol sampler and transport of loaded collection samplers are stated. Furthermore, the method for calculating the e

39、xpanded uncertainty for a measuring procedure based on aerosol sampling is described. Different test procedures and types of evaluation are described in the other parts of EN 13205 in order to enable application of EN 13205 to a wide variety of instruments. In detail, three different performance tes

40、ts for sampled concentration and a transport test of loaded collection substrates are described. The three tests differ in the amount of information obtained by the test and its corresponding cost. The first test method determines the sampling efficiency curve of a candidate sampler, the second comp

41、ares concentrations sampled from three laboratory test atmospheres by a candidate sampler and a (previously) validated sampler, and the third method compares concentrations sampled from a specific workplace by a candidate sampler and a (previously) validated sampler. Additionally a method for determ

42、ining equivalence between aerosol samplers at specific workplaces and an alternative handling test are presented. EN 13205 (all parts) enables manufacturers and users of aerosol samplers to adopt a consistent approach to sampler validation, and provide a framework for the assessment of sampler perfo

43、rmance with respect to EN 481 and EN 482. It is the responsibility of the manufacturer of aerosol samplers to inform the user of the sampler performance under the laboratory conditions1)specified in other parts of this European Standard. It is the responsibility of the user to ensure that the actual

44、 conditions of intended use are within what the manufacturer specifies as acceptable conditions according to the performance test. 1) The inhalable convention is undefined for particle sizes in excess of 100 m or for wind speeds greater than 4 m/s. The tests required to assess performance are theref

45、ore limited to these conditions. Should such large particle sizes or wind speeds actually exist at the time of sampling, it is possible that different samplers meeting this part of EN 13205 give different results. DINEN 13205-1:2014-09EN 13205-1:2014(E)6 1 Scope This European Standard specifies perf

46、ormance requirements that are specific to aerosol samplers, primarily inhalable, thoracic and respirable aerosol samplers. These performance requirements, which include conformity with the EN 481 sampling conventions, are applicable only to the process of sampling the airborne particles from the air

47、, not to the process of analysing particles collected by the process of sampling. Although analysis of samples collected in the course of testing is usually necessary in order to evaluate the sampler performance, the specified test methods ensure that analytical errors are kept very low during testi

48、ng and do not contribute significantly to the end result. This part of EN 13205 specifies how the performance of aerosol measuring procedures is assessed with respect to the general requirements of EN 482, through the combination of errors arising in the sampling, sample transportation/storage and sample preparation/analysis stages. This part of EN 13205 is applicable to all samplers used for the health-related sampling of particles in workplace air. This part of EN 13205 is not applicable to the determinat
