Description / Abstract:
This part of ISO 10882 specifies a procedure for sampling
airborne particles in the breathing zone of a person who performs
welding and allied processes (the operator). It also provides
details of relevant standards that specify required
characteristics, performance requirements and test methods for
workplace air measurement, and augments guidance provided in EN 689
on assessment strategy and measurement strategy. This part of ISO
10882 also specifies a procedure for making gravimetric
measurements of personal exposure to airborne particles generated
by welding and allied processes (welding fume) and other airborne
particles generated by welding-related operations. Additionally, it
provides references to suitable methods of chemical analysis,
specified in other standards, to determine personal exposure to
specific chemical agents present in welding fume and other airborne
particles generated by welding-related operations.
The general background level of airborne particles in the
workplace atmosphere influences personal exposure and therefore the
role of fixed-point sampling is also considered.
