1.1This test method provides details for the determination of respirable dust concentration defined in terms of international convention in a range from 0.5 to 10 mg/m3 in workplace atmospheres. Specifics are given for sampling and analysis using any one of a number of commercially available cyclone samplers.
1.2The limitations on the test method are a minimum weight of 0.1 mg of dust on the filter, and a maximum loading of 0.3 mg/m2 on the filter. The test method may be used at higher loadings if the flow rate can be maintained constant.
