15、l 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 interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been es
16、tablished 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 Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardi
17、zation. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 7
18、5 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this part of ISO 8573 may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. International Standard ISO 8573-4 was prepared by Te
19、chnical Committee ISO/TC 118, Compressors, pneumatic tools and pneumatic machines, Subcommittee SC 4, Quality of compressed air. ISO 8573 consists of the following parts, under the general title Compressed air: Part 1: Contaminants and purity classes Part 2: Test methods for aerosol oil content Part

22、particle content 1 Scope This part of ISO 8573 provides a guide for choosing a suitable method to determine the solid particle concentration in compressed air, expressed as the number of solid particles in respective size classes. It describes the limitations of the various methods. This part of ISO
23、 8573 identifies sampling techniques and measurement methods based on the counting of particles, and describes the evaluation, uncertainty considerations and reporting of the air purity parameter, solid particles. NOTE 1 The test methods described in this part of ISO 8573 are those suitable for dete
24、rmining the purity classes given in ISO 8573-1. NOTE 2 Particle content determined as mass concentration is dealt with in ISO 8573-8. 2 Normative references The following normative documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this part of ISO 8573.

31、ness. Solid particles include microbiological units. Reference is made to microbiological particles in this part of ISO 8573 to identify what problems may arise that can affect the discrimination of non-microbiological particles from microbiological particles and when to use this part of ISO 8573 or
32、 ISO 8573-7. The influence of liquids on particle size and number must be eliminated in order to obtain a correct reading. The influence of liquids other than water shall be given due consideration when selecting a test method. In order to discriminate non-microbiological particles from microbiologi
33、cal particles, measurements must be taken within a period of 4 h. 5.2 Microbiological particles This part of ISO 8573 should be used to count the number of microbiological particles present in a sample. The method used to count the particles does not identify microbiological particles directly, ther
34、efore if more information is required, ISO 8573-7 should be used to determine their viability. 5.3 Aerodynamic particle diameter Aerodynamic particle diameter is a function of density. For the purposes of the test methods described in this part of ISO 8573, it is assumed that solid particles have un
35、iform density. 6 Selection of method The method to be selected depends on the concentration range and the sizes of solid particles in the compressed air. For choosing the method most suitable for the concentration range and sizes of particles estimated to be present in the sample, see Table 1. The a
36、pplicability of particular measurement equipment to a method should be verified with the equipment manufacturer.

38、 7.1 General Solid particles can be measured at atmospheric pressure or under ambient pressure conditions depending on the equipment used. Measurement can be carried out at partial or full flow. a) Full flow sampling of total airflow. b) Partial flow sample taken from a percentage of the airflow. If
39、 the particle diameter is greater than 1 m, then sampling shall be isokinetic. 7.2 Full-flow sampling 7.2.1 General For full-flow sampling using physical methods, if the particle diameter is greater than 0,5 m, a gridded membrane shall be used. The method detailed here deals with the sampling and an
40、alysis of airborne particles at constant flowrate, and permits the quantification and sizing of particles in a compressed air system. Airflow is passed through the test equipment via suitable in-line valves, which have been previously checked to ensure they do not contribute to the level of contamin
41、ation already present. Particular attention shall be paid to the cleanliness of the test equipment, and other precautions shall be taken, e.g. valve purging and stabilization to constant test conditions. Where air is directed to the atmosphere, means should be taken to ensure that the system pressur
42、e is maintained. The temperature and velocity ranges shall be within the ranges specified by the manufacturer. Using this method, the total airflow passes through the sampling equipment. BS ISO 8573-4:2001 ISO 8573-4:2001 (E)4 ISO 1002 All rights rsedevre 7.2.2 Test equipment Full-flow sampling shal
43、l be carried out by gridded membrane only. The general arrangement of the test equipment for full-flow sampling is shown in Figure 1. It is important that the test equipment does not affect the collected sample. As the test apparatus is portable, different test locations may be chosen, provided the
44、stated parameters are not exceeded and suitable valving for insertion of the test equipment into the circuit exists.

46、okinetic conditions are advisable. Isokinetic sampling devices should exhibit the following characteristics. BS ISO 8573-4:2001 ISO 8573-4:2001 (E) ISO 1002 All rights rsedevre 5 a) The probe should be a minimum distance of 10 pipe diameters from upstream bends or restrictions and 3 diameters from d
47、ownstream bends or restrictions. b) The size of the probe should not influence the air stream. The nozzles may vary in shape and construction (see 7.3.3). c) Impaction onto the internal surface of the probe should be taken into account. d) Turbulent flow conditions within the main air stream are req
48、uired (Reynolds number Re greater than 4 000). In normal industrial use, compressed air is in a state of turbulent flow, which occurs when the following conditions are met: QW 20 D where Q is the pipe flowrate, in litres per second (at reference conditions); D is the actual compressed air pipe diame
49、ter, in millimetres. NOTE Under the test conditions specified, scanning across the pipe diameter with a sampling probe is unnecessary. 7.3.2 Equipment set-up for isokinetic sampling The set-up for the isokinetic sampling probe at the insertion point of the compressed air system under investigation is shown in Figure 2.
