Abstract

Sets out a standard method for the determination of suspended particulate matter with an equivalent aerodynamic diameter of less than 10 µm utilizing a low volume sampler and size selective inlet.

Scope

This Standard sets out a gravimetric method for determination of PM10 in ambient air utilizing low volume sequential and non-sequential samplers equipped with size selective inlets. The method provides a measure of mean concentration of PM10 in units of micrograms per cubic metre (µg/m3), normally sampled over a 24 h period.
This method may be used to collect particle samples for subsequent physical or chemical analysis.
