Conservation of cultural heritage - Procedures and instruments for measuring humidity in the air and moisture exchanges between air and cultural property

This European Standard gives guidance and specifies procedures and instruments for the measurement of relative humidity (RH) in air, in outdoor or indoor environments. It indicates how RH can be directly measured or how it can be calculated from air temperature, wet-bulb temperature and dew-point temperature. This standard contains recommendations for accurate measurements of ambient conditions and moisture exchanges between air and cultural heritage objects. It is addressed to anyone in charge of environmental diagnosis, conservation or maintenance of buildings, collections or single objects.

Erhaltung des kulturellen Erbes - Verfahren und Geräte zur Messung der Luftfeuchte und des Austausches von Feuchtigkeit zwischen Luft und Kulturgut

Diese Europäische Norm gibt Richtlinien und legt Verfahren und Geräte zur Messung der relativen Luftfeuchte (RH) in Außen- oder Innenraumumgebungen fest. Sie gibt an, wie RH direkt gemessen oder aus der Lufttemperatur, der Feuchtkugeltemperatur und der Taupunkttemperatur berechnet werden kann. Diese Norm enthält Empfehlungen für genaue Messungen der Umgebungsbedingungen und des Feuchtigkeitsaustau-sches zwischen der Luft und Kulturgütern. Sie richtet sich an alle, die für Klimauntersuchungen, Maßnahmen zur Erhaltung oder den laufenden Unterhalt von Gebäuden, Sammlungen oder Einzelobjekten zuständig sind.

Conservation des biens culturels - Modes opératoires et instruments de mesure de l'humidité de l'air et des échanges d'humidité entre l'air et les biens culturels

La présente norme spécifie les modes opératoires et les instruments de mesure de l'humidité relative (HR) de l'air dans les environnements extérieurs ou intérieurs. Elle indique comment mesurer directement l'humidité relative ou comment la calculer à partir de la température de l'air, de la température du thermomètre mouillé et de la température du point de rosée. La présente norme contient des recommandations pour un mesurage précis des conditions ambiantes et des échanges d'humidité entre l'air et les œuvres d'art. Elle s'adresse à toute personne chargée du diagnostic environnemental, de la préservation, de la conservation ou de l'entretien de bâtiments, de collections ou d'objets simples.

Ohranjanje kulturne dediščine - Postopki in instrumenti za merjenje vlažnosti v zraku in izmenjave vlage med zrakom in kulturno dediščino

Ta evropski standard vsebuje navodila za merjenje relativne vlažnosti zraka v zunanjih in notranjih okoljih ter določa postopke in instrumente zanj. Določa postopke za neposredno merjenje relativne vlažnosti ali njen izračun iz temperature zraka, temperature mokrega termometra in temperature rosišča. Ta standard vsebuje priporočila za točne meritve okoljskih razmer in izmenjavo vlage med zrakom in predmeti kulturne dediščine. Namenjen je osebam, odgovornim za okoljsko diagnozo, ohranjanje ali vzdrževanje stavb, zbirk ali posameznih predmetov.
