This document applies only to oxidant gases delivered through specialty gas systems at pressures up to 8 × 105 Pa (8 atmospheres). This method is not suitable for direct sampling from high pressure cylinders at pressures above 8 × 105 Pa (8 atmospheres).

This standard does not purport to address safety issues, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the users of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory or other limitations prior to use.

Purpose

The purpose of this document is to set a maximum permissible particle concentration for 10/0.2 grade oxidant specialty gases and to describe a reference method for its verification.
