VDI 2463 Blatt 7:2014-05

Owing to legal requirements such as the Federal Immission Control Act (BImSchG), the monitoring of suspended particulate matter with aerodynamic particle diameters < 10 µm and < 2,5 µm microns is of the utmost importance. The standard specifies requirements for a sampling device for active sampling of suspended particulate matter, dust components and selected gaseous compounds (e.g. polychlorinated dioxins) in ambient air and indoor air. It gives technical specifications, requirements for components and tolerances concerning volume flow (2,3 m3/h to 3,03/h) of the sampling device low-volume sampler (LVS).
