ISO 8573-9 Compressed Air - Test Methods for Liquid Water Content

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, offers precise and rapid testing services within the scope of ISO 8573-9 testing. ISO 8573-9 specifies test methods for determining liquid water content, expressed as the mass concentration of liquid water in compressed air. Limitations of the methods are also noted.

One of a series of standards aimed at harmonizing air pollution methods, this standard defines sampling techniques, specifies measurement procedures, and also gives evaluation, uncertainty considerations, and reporting requirements for the air purity parameter liquid water. Test methods are suitable for determining purity classes according to ISO 8573-1.

Test equipment and instruments shall be in good working order. The calibration requirements of the measuring equipment used, as specified in the applicable instructions, shall be taken into account. Pressure and temperature can also affect liquid water content measurement results. Therefore, the temperature and pressure at the measurement point must be kept at steady-state conditions.

This method describes the collection of condensate from the sampling point, the separation of water from this condensate, and the weight of liquid water contained in the compressed air sample. The volume of compressed air from which liquid water is separated will be measured.
