Standard Practice for Calibration of Ozone Monitors and Certification of Ozone Transfer Standards Using Ultraviolet Photometry
使用紫外线光度测定法校准臭氧监测器和认证臭氧转移标准的标准实施规程
1.1
This practice covers a means for calibrating ambient, workplace, or indoor ozone monitors, and for certifying transfer standards to be used for that purpose.
1.2
This practice describes means by which dynamic streams of ozone in air can be designated as primary ozone standards.
1.3
The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.
1.4
This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
See Section
8
for specific precautionary statements.
1.5
This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
====== Significance And Use ======
5.1
The reactivity and instability of O
3
preclude the storage of O
3
concentration standards for any practical length of time, and precludes direct certification of O
3
concentrations as Standard Reference Materials (SRMs). Moreover, there is no available SRM that can be readily and directly adapted to the generation of O
3
standards analogous to permeation devices and standard gas cylinders for sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides. Dynamic generation of O
3
concentrations is relatively easy with a source of ultraviolet (UV) radiation. However, accurately certifying an O
3
concentration as a primary standard requires assay of the concentration by a comprehensively specified analytical procedure, which must be performed every time a standard is needed

5.2
This practice is not designed for the routine calibration of O
3
monitors at remote locations (see Practices
D5011
).
