This standard describes a bench test method for the measurement of the emission rate of a specified airborne hazardous substance from machines using a test rig under specified operating conditions of the machine. This standard does not specify any value for the air velocity of the inhalable particles. The measurement of the emission rates of a specified pollutant emitted from machines can serve for: a) the evaluation of the performance of a machine; b) the evaluation of the improvement of the machine; c) the comparison of machines within groups of machines with the same intended use (groups are defined by the function and materials processed); d) the ranking of machines from the same group according to their emission rates; e) the determination of the state of the art of machines with respect to their emission rate.
