Key Light source Chopper motor Copper wheel Measuring cell Reference cell Detector Electronics Signal Figure C.3 — Example of a NDIR analyser The radiation emitted from the IR source is divided into two beams and then modulated, one beam passing through the measuring cell and the other through the reference cell containing an IR inactive gas, usually nitrogen If the sample gas contains NO, some of the IR energy is absorbed and the difference in IR energy reaching the detector is proportional to the amount of NO present The detector is designed so that it is only sensitive to the NO-specific wavelengths A special arrangement of the NDIR method is the gas filter correlation method Interference is possible, particularly with water vapour Other methods Beside the two methods mentioned above there are the Non-dispersive ultraviolet (NDUV) method and the Nonextractive (in situ) method These methods are described in detail in ISO 10849 Annex D (normative) Measurement of total hydrocarbons (THC) D.1 General objective and applicability This method is intended to determine the total hydrocarbon content in flue gases from appliances burning solid fuels The method uses an instrument equipped with a flame ionisation detector (FID) The measurement is continuous The result obtained is expressed as equivalents of a reference substance, usually methane or propane The measurement concerns only the total hydrocarbon content and does not give any information of separate constituents D.2 General procedure The measurement is extractive, i.e the test gas flow is drawn from the measuring point and is analysed in a freestanding instrument The measuring point shall be in the centre of the flue gas pipe and be placed three diameters after the flue gas outlet of the appliance If there is a damper or any other device which will give rise to inhomogenities in the flow the measuring point shall be moved to a position where the flow is homogenous The measuring system shall be heated to 195 °C D.3 Equipment The measuring system consists of the following components: — Instrument with flame ionisation detector, FID Measuring range, usually between 0–10 and 0–100 000 ppm The instrument shall be equipped with a heated filter — Gas probe with a filter for particulates The probe shall consist of a suitable material, such as corrosion resistant steel The filter shall be heated so that condensation is avoided This requires a temperature in the filter of 195 °C — Sample line The sample line shall be heated to the same temperature as the filter The inner line shall be

the EU Construction Products Directive (89/106/EEC) Compliance with these clauses confers a presumption of fitness of the construction products covered by this annex for their intended uses indicated herein reference shall be made to the information accompanying the CE marking WARNING: Other requirements and other EU Directives, not affecting the fitness for intended use can be applicable to the construction products falling within the scope of this standard NOTE In addition to any specific clauses relating to dangerous substances contained in this standard, there may be other requirements applicable to the products falling within its scope (e.g transposed European legislation and national laws, regulations and administrative provisions) In order to meet the provisions of the EU Construction Products Directive, these requirements need also to be complied with, when and where they apply NOTE An informative database of European and national provisions on dangerous substances is
