0 Introduction
0.1 General
CEN has established standards for the certification of automated measuring systems (AMS) used for
monitoring emissions from stationary sources and ambient air quality. This product certification is based on
the following four sequential stages:
a) performance testing of an AMS;
b) initial assessment of the AMS manufacturer’s quality management system;
c) certification;
d) post certification surveillance.
This European Standard defines the performance criteria and test procedures for performance testing of AMS
used to monitor emissions from stationary sources. Testing applies to complete measuring systems.
The overall assessment for the purposes of certification is conformity testing, whilst the evaluation of
performance against specified performance criteria is performance testing.
0.2 Legal drivers
This European Standard supports the requirements of the following EU Directives:
 Directive on the limitation of emissions of certain pollutants into the air from large combustion plants
(2001/80/EC);
 Directive on the incineration of waste (2000/76/EC);
 Directive on the limitation of emissions of volatile organic compounds due to the use of organic solvents
in certain activities and installations (1999/13/EC);
 Integrated Pollution Prevention and Control Directive (1996/61/EC);
 Directive on processes emitting greenhouse gases (2003/87/EC).
However, this European Standard can also be applied to the monitoring requirements specified in other EU
Directives.
0.3 Relationship to EN 14181
The Quality Assurance Levels (QAL) defined in EN 14181 cover the suitability of an AMS for its measuring
task (QAL1), the regular calibration and validation of the AMS (QAL2), and the control of the AMS during its
ongoing operation on an industrial plant (QAL3). An Annual Surveillance Test (AST) is also defined in
EN 14181.
This European Standard provides the detailed procedures covering the QAL1 requirements of EN 14181.
Furthermore, it provides input data for QAL3.
0.4 Processes
Field testing of an AMS is ordinarily carried out on the most highly demanding industrial process in the range
of applications for which a manufacturer seeks certification. The premise is that if the AMS performs
acceptably on this process, then experience has shown that the AMS generally performs well on the majority
of other processes. However, there are always exceptions and it is the responsibility of the manufacturer in
conjunction with the user to ensure that the AMS performs adequately on a specific process.
0.5 Performance characteristics
A combination of laboratory and field testing is detailed within this European Standard. Laboratory testing is
designed to assess whether an AMS can meet, under controlled conditions, the relevant performance criteria.
Field testing, over a minimum three month period, is designed to assess whether an AMS can continue to
work and meet the relevant performance criteria in a real application. Field testing is carried out on an
industrial process representative of the intended application for the AMS for which the manufacturer seeks
certification.
The main AMS performance characteristics are
 response time,
 repeatability standard deviation at zero and span points,
 lack of fit (linearity) under laboratory and field conditions,
 zero and span drift under laboratory and field conditions,
 influence of ambient temperature,
 influence of sample gas pressure,
 influence of sample gas flow for extractive AMS,
 influence of voltage variations,
 influence of vibration,
 cross-sensitivity to likely interferents contained in the waste gas other than the measured component,
 excursion of measurement beam of in-situ AMS,
 converter efficiency for NO AMS,
x
 response factors,
 performance and accuracy of the AMS against a standard reference method (SRM) under field conditions,
 maintenance interval under field conditions,
 availability under field conditions and
 reproducibility under field conditions.
The quality of reference or surrogate materials used under QAL3 for particulate matter measuring AMS is also
assessed.
This European Standard is an application and elaboration of EN ISO 9169 with additional and alternative
provisions for paired testing. Where this European Standard appears to differ from EN ISO 9169, it either
elaborates upon the requirements of EN ISO 9169 or differs in minor ways owing to the necessity to conduct
paired testing.
1 Scope
This European Standard specifies the performance criteria and test procedures for automated measuring
systems that measure gases and particulate matter in, and flow of, the waste gas from stationary sources.
This European Standard supports the requirements of particular EU Directives. It provides the detailed
procedures covering the QAL1 requirements of EN 14181 and, where required, input data used in QAL3.
