BS EN 482 2012 Edition has just been released and is now available from Document Center Inc. The new revsion, titled “Workplace exposure. General requirements for the performance of procedures for the measurement of chemical agents,” specifies general performance requirements for procedures for the determination of the concentration of chemical agents in workplace atmospheres as required by the Chemical Agents Directive 98/24/EC.
These requirements apply to all measuring procedures, irrespective of the physical form of the chemical agent (gas, vapour, airborne particles), the sampling method and the analytical method used. This European Standard is applicable to all steps of a measuring procedure, measuring procedures with separate sampling and analysis steps, and direct-reading devices.
The 24-page BS EN 482:2012 replaces the previous (now obsolete) 2006 Edition. It is the official English language edition of EN 482:2012. Since the EN standards are not available as stand-alone publications, but only as re-publications as adopted by each country in the European Union, this is normally how we sell the standard at Document Center Inc.
