This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by November 2005, and conflicting national standards shal

This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive 2000/69/EC and EU Directive 96/62 EC. According to the CEN/CENELEC Inter

EN 14662-1:2005 (E) 4 1 Scope This part of EN 14662 gives general guidance for the sampling and analysis of benzene in air by pumped sampling, thermal desorption and capillary gas chromatography. This

22、 part of EN 14662 is in accordance with the generic methodology selected as the basis of the European Union reference method for the determination of benzene in ambient air 1 for the purpose of comparison of measurement results with limit values with a one-year reference period. This part of EN 1466

23、2 is valid for the measurement of benzene in a concentration range of approximately 0,5 g/m 3 to 50 g/m 3in an air sample typically collected over a period of 24 hours. The upper limit of the useful range is set by the sorptive capacity of the sorbent and by the linear dynamic range of the gas chrom

24、atograph column and detector or by the sample splitting capacity of the analytical instrumentation used. The lower limit of the useful range depends on the noise level of the detector and on blank levels of benzene and/or interfering artefacts on the sorbent. Artefacts are typically sub ng for sorbe

25、nts, but higher levels of aromatic hydrocarbons have been noted in other sorbents. The detection limit will be approximately 1/10 of the lower concentration range. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

The level of confidence that can be attributed to the interval can be known only to the extent to which such

NOTE 1 The parameter may be, for example, a standard deviation (or given multiple of it), or the half width of an interval having a stated level of confidence. NOT

38、E 2 Uncertainty of measurement comprises, in general, many components. Some of these components may be evaluated from the statistical distribution of the results of a series of measurements and can be characterised by experimental standard deviations. The other components, which can also be characte

39、rised by standard deviations, are evaluated from assumed probability distributions based on experience or other information. NOTE 3 It is understood that the result of a measurement is the best estimate of the value of a measurand, and that all components of uncertainty, including those arising from

40、 systematic effects, such as components associated with corrections and reference standards, contribute to this dispersion ENV 13005:1999. Attention is drawn to the fact that the terms Ambient Air and Limit Value are defined in Directive 96/62/EC 2. 4 Method description 4.1 Principle A measured volu

41、me of sample air is drawn through a sorbent tube. EN ISO 16017-1 Provided suitable sorbents are chosen, benzene is retained by the sorbent and thus is removed from the flowing air stream. The collected EN 14662-1:2005 (E) 6 vapour (on each tube) is desorbed by heat and is transferred under inert car

42、rier gas into a gas chromatograph equipped with a capillary column and a flame ionisation detector or other suitable detector, where it is analysed. The analysis is calibrated by means of liquid or vapour spiking onto a sorbent tube. 4.2 Reagents and materials During the analysis, use only reagents

43、of recognised analytical reagent grade. Use only volumetric glassware and syringes that are calibrated to ensure traceability of volume to primary standards. 4.2.1 Benzene Benzene is required as a reagent for calibration purposes, using either liquid spiking (4.2.7 to 4.2.9) or vapour spiking (4.2.4

44、 to 4.2.6) onto sorbent tubes. The benzene used shall be of a minimum purity of 99.5%. 4.2.2 Dilution solvent A dilution solvent is required for preparing calibration blend solution for liquid spiking (4.2.7). NOTE Methanol is frequently used. Alternative solvents may be used provided they do not in

45、terfere with the gas chromatographic analysis, either by co-elution or by altering detector response. 4.2.3 Sorbents A particle size 0,18 mm to 0,25 mm (60 to 80 mesh) is recommended. Sorbent particle sizes larger than 0,18mm to 0,25 mm may be used but the breakthrough characteristics given in Annex

46、 A may be affected. Smaller sorbent particle size ranges are not recommended because of back pressure problems. Each sorbent should be preconditioned under a flow of inert gas by heating it at a temperature at least 25 C below the published maximum for that sorbent overnight before packing the tubes

47、. To prevent recontamination of the sorbents, they shall be kept in a clean atmosphere during cooling to room temperature, storage, and loading into the tubes. Wherever possible, analytical desorption temperatures should be kept below those used for conditioning. Tubes prepacked by the manufacturer

48、are also available for most sorbents and as such only require conditioning. NOTE A description of sorbents is given in Annex B and a guide for sorbent selection is given in Annex C. Equivalent sorbents may be used. A guide to sorbent conditioning and analytical desorption parameters is given in Anne

49、x D. 4.2.4 Calibration standards Calibration standards are preferably prepared by loading the required amount benzene on the sorbent tubes from standard atmospheres (see 4.2.5 and 4.2.6) as this procedure most closely resembles the practical sampling situation. NOTE The loading ranges given in 4.2.6, 4.2.7 and 4.2.9 are not mandatory and approximate to the application range given in the scope for a 10 litre sample. For specific applications where larger volume
