-NO2-
Observation |
Category |
: |
Air sampling observation |
Situation |
: |
ongoing |
Time zone |
: |
Local time +1 |
Sampling |
Sampling height |
: |
|
Description |
: |
continuous |
Sampling and analysis frequency |
: |
Continuous |
Sampling environment |
: |
measurements in pristine air, usually negligible local sources |
Description for sampling analysis |
: |
NOx is determinded as NO after photolytic conversion. NO2 is the difference of NOx and NO. 10-minute averages. |
Instrument and Analysis |
Measurement method |
: |
Chemiluminescence |
Current status and history of instrument |
: |
Chemiluminescence, CRANOX |
Description of instrument |
: |
Eco Physics:
CLD 770/PLC 760 (till 18 December 2000)
CLD 770/PLC 762 (till 22 January 2007)
CLD 89p/PLC 762 (since 22 January 2007)
|
Calibration |
Current scale employed in the measurement |
: |
NMI PRM BD11 (20ppm ± 0.2ppm) |
Measurement calibration |
: |
Every 23 hours an automatic zero-check and an automatic span correction is performed for NOx. |
Scale and calibration(treasability) |
: |
From 1991 UNTIL 09/2001: NIST SRM 2629a (20ppm ± 0.2ppm);
Since 09/2001: NMI PRM BD11 (20ppm ± 0.2ppm); NMI is equivalent to NIST (refer to the “Declaration of Equivalence“ between NMI und NIST)
