AS/NZS 3580.9.13 – Methods for sampling and analysis of ambient air, Method 9.13: Determination of suspended particulate matter – PM2.5 continuous direct mass method using a tapered element oscillating microbalance monitor

AS/NZS 3580.9.13:2022 sets out a method for the continuous determination of PM2.5 particulate matter in ambient air using a tapered element oscillating microbalance (TEOM) monitor incorporating a filter dynamic measurement system (FDMS) unit. The method can provide a measure of mean particle concentration over periods from 1 h to 24 h.
