26、 (E) 4 Introduction This European Standard describes the quality assurance procedures related to Automated Measuring Systems (AMS) for the determination of total mercury in flue gas, in order to meet the uncertainty requirements on measured values given by regulations, national or other legislation.
27、 This European Standard is only applicable in conjunction with the general document on quality assurance of AMS described in EN 14181, and provides indications, which are specific to measurements of total mercury. The calibration and validation of mercury AMS are performed by parallel measurements w
28、ith the reference manual method described in EN 13211. The calibration and validation of mercury AMS are performed by parallel measurements with the reference manual method described in EN 13211. The species of mercury (Hg0and Hg2+) and the physical occurrence (gaseous, in dust or in droplets) can v
29、ary significantly depending on the type of process to be monitored. A total mercury AMS or a gaseous mercury AMS can be chosen. Whether or not a gaseous mercury AMS can fulfil the requirements for total mercury depends on the process and sampling location. Licensed Copy: Wang Bin, na, Tue Apr 18 04:
30、14:58 BST 2006, Uncontrolled Copy, (c) BSIEN 14884:2005 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies specific requirements on automated measuring systems (AMS) for monitoring of total mercury. It is derived from EN 14181, which is the general document on the quality assurance of AMS. It is only ap
31、plicable in conjunction with EN 14181. This European Standard sets specific requirements for the quality assurance levels and annual surveillance test as specified in EN 14181, for mercury AMS used for proving that the mercury emissions from a source are compliant with emission limits between 0,03 m
32、g/m3and 0,5 mg/m31)(standard conditions) in ducted gaseous streams. This European Standard is applicable by direct correlation with the standard reference method (SRM) described in EN 13211. This European Standard is primarily developed for emissions from waste incinerators. From a technical point o
33、f view, it may be applied to other processes, for which measurement at an emission limit is required with defined uncertainty. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this European Standard. For dated references, only the edition cited appli

37、 is a method, which is traceable to a reference method. NOTE 2 Apart from the analyser, an AMS includes facilities for taking samples (e.g. sample probe, sample gas lines, flow meters, regulators, delivery pumps) and for sample conditioning (e.g. dust filter, moisture removal devices, converters, di
38、luters). This definition also includes testing and adjusting devices that are required for regular functional checks. 1)m3expressed as m3under dry conditions, normalized to 273 K and 101,3 kPa and 11,0 % (volume fraction) O2(unless otherwise stated).

40、elates to an uncertainty requirement. 3.3 standard conditions reference values for a dry gas at a pressure of 101,3 kPa and a temperature of 273 K 3.4 Standard Reference Method (SRM) method described and standardised to define an air quality characteristic, temporarily installed on site for verifica
41、tion purposes 3.5 tsamplesample time period of the automated measurement system 3.6 tcycletime of the total measurement cycle of the monitor 4 Principle This European Standard is derived from the general standard on the quality assurance of AMS (EN 14181). It shall be applied in conjunction with tha
42、t standard. This European Standard only deals with the specific aspects related to mercury monitoring. According to EN 14181, three different levels of quality assurance are defined, designated as Quality Assurance Levels (QAL). These levels cover the suitability of an AMS for its measuring task (QA
43、L1), the validation of the AMS following its installation (QAL2), the control of the AMS during its ongoing operation on an industrial plant (QAL3). An annual Surveillance Test (AST) is also defined. 5 AMS performance criteria for QAL 1 The performance of the AMS shall be assessed in a suitability t
44、est referred to as QAL1. Suitability tests for an AMS are usually carried out within the framework of certification or type approval procedures. The suitability test comprises a separate laboratory test and a three-month field test in a typical application. NOTE The requirements for values of perfor
45、mance characteristics will be specified in a European Standard on AMS certification. The manufacturer shall ensure that the delivered AMS has the same characteristics as the tested devices. It shall be proven by use of EN ISO 14956 that the total uncertainty of the measured results obtained by the A
46、MS meets the specifications for uncertainty stated in the applicable regulations. This total uncertainty is calculated by summing all the relevant uncertainty components arising from the individual performance characteristics in an appropriate manner. The AMS suitability shall be evaluated for the p
47、lant specific conditions taking into account the anticipated variations of the physical environment and interferences. Cross sensitivities of interferents in the gas to be measured are to be checked alone and together with mercury and its compounds. If there is any interaction then a restricted use
48、of an AMS at specific emission sources is possible. Licensed Copy: Wang Bin, na, Tue Apr 18 04:14:58 BST 2006, Uncontrolled Copy, (c) BSIEN 14884:2005 (E) 7 6 AMS location The AMS shall be located in such a way that the gas sample, which is monitored, has a representative content of total mercury. T
49、he location shall be chosen according to the manufacturer recommendations, and may depend on the AMS principle of detection. The AMS shall be located to ensure that there is minimum interference with the SRM and vice versa. The working platform(s) for the AMS shall provide an easy and safe access to the AMS in order to allow frequent inspection and quality assurance procedure implementation. If the particulate mercury amounts to more than 2% of the total mercury the working platform for the SRM shall comply with the requirements of Annex A of EN 13284-1:2001
