Indoor air - Part 2: Sampling strategy for formaldehyde
Also Known As:
DIN EN ISO 16000-2 is a standard that focuses on the sampling strategy for formaldehyde in indoor air. It provides guidelines for the measurement strategy to be followed before and during sampling, as well as the measurement procedures specifically for formaldehyde. This standard takes into account both general aspects and substance-specific aspects in indoor air measurements.
The standard emphasizes the importance of considering certain factors such as ventilation, humidity, room temperature, and sampling duration when determining the measurement strategy for formaldehyde. It also highlights the use of screening tests to initially assess the formaldehyde concentration in indoor air.
Before conducting an indoor air measurement, it is essential to define the objective clearly. The measurement may be needed to check compliance with a guideline value, determine maximum concentrations, assess the effectiveness of remediation, or determine the average concentration over a longer period of time. The standard provides detailed descriptions of the sampling procedures and the conditions that need to be followed.
