Course in dust sampling and gas flow measurement

Three days for those who do their own measuring: the theory behind EN 13284-1, a full field day with your own measurements and a day of calculations, measurement uncertainty and reporting. The course is held once or twice a year in Enköping and takes at most twelve participants.

The programme

Three days, from the filter to the report

  • Day 1 – theory and preparation

    Dust sampling according to EN 13284-1 and Energiforsk's Emissionsmäthandbok (the Swedish emission measurement handbook): isokinetic sampling, the measurement site, filters and conditioning. Filter weighing in the weighing room and gas flow measurement with a pitot tube.

  • Day 2 – field day

    Measurements in groups at a real plant: leak test, gas velocity, sampling point by point. Each group takes its own samples with our equipment.

  • Day 3 – evaluation

    Weighing the filters after sampling, calculations, measurement uncertainty and how the result is presented in a report, by hand and on a computer. A course certificate for every participant.
