本文件规定了用于测量一般通风用空气过滤器的重量效率和气流阻力的试验设备和试验方法。 它旨在与ISO 16890-1、ISO 16890-2和ISO 16890-4结合使用。 本文件所述的试验方法适用于0.25 m3/s（900 m3/h，530 ft3/min）至1.5 m3/s（5400 m3/h，3178 ft3/min，参考标称表面积为610 mm×610 mm（24 in×24 in）的试验台。 本文件涉及根据ISO 16890系列中定义的程序进行测试时，ePM1效率小于或等于99%、ePM10效率大于20%的一般通风用颗粒空气过滤器元件。 注:由于低于此水平的测试过滤器元件很难满足本程序的统计有效性要求，因此本测试程序的下限设置为最低ePM10效率20%。 本文件不适用于便携式室内空气净化器中使用的过滤元件。

This document specifies the test equipment and the test methods used for measuring the gravimetric efficiency and resistance to air flow of air filter for general ventilation. It is intended for use in conjunction with ISO 16890-1, ISO 16890-2 and ISO 16890-4. The test method described in this document is applicable for air flow rates between 0,25 m3/s (900 m3/h, 530 ft3/min) and 1,5 m3/s (5 400 m3/h, 3 178 ft3/min), referring to a test rig with a nominal face area of 610 mm × 610 mm (24 in × 24 in). This document refers to particulate air filter elements for general ventilation having an ePM1 efficiency less than or equal to 99 % and an ePM10 efficiency greater than 20 % when tested as per the procedures defined in the ISO 16890 series. NOTE            The lower limit for this test procedure is set at a minimum ePM10 efficiency of 20 % since it is very difficult for a test filter element below this level to meet the statistical validity requirements of this procedure. This document does not apply to filter elements used in portable room-air cleaners.
