Short description
This European Standard provides details for the sampling and analysis of NO2 in ambient air using diffusive sampling followed by extraction and analysis by colorimetry or ion chromatography. It can be used in a concentration range of approximately 3 µg/m3 to 130 µg/m3. A sample is typically collected for a period of 1 to 4 weeks, with exposure periods depending on the design of the samplers and the concentration levels of NO2.
Overview
This European Standard describes the sampling of NO2 in air using diffusive sampling (tube-type sampler) followed by extraction and analysis by colorimetry or ion chromatography. It can be used for the NO2 measurement in a concentration range of approximately 3 µg/m3 to 130 µg/m3. A sample is typically collected for a period of 1 week to 4 weeks, with exposure periods depending on the design of the samplers and the concentration levels of NO2. The relative expanded uncertainty of NO2 measurements performed using these tube-type diffusive samplers can be lower than 25 % for individual measurements at yearly averages of 15 %. This standard is of interest in particular for measurement institutes, network operators and supervising authorities.
