ISO 16000-29 Indoor Air - Part 29: Test Methods for VOC Detectors

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of ISO 16000-29 testing. ISO 16000-29 specifies performance testing methods for VOC detectors designed to monitor the concentration of VOCs in indoor and live atmospheres, as well as for controlling indoor air quality in portable, mobile and remote applications.

ISO 16000-29 Indoor Air - Part 29: Test Methods for VOC Detectors

The provisions in ISO 16000-29 cover individual VOC detectors as well as VOC detectors. ISO 16000-29 specifies requirements that apply only to the test method of VOC detectors, such as response time, stability and measuring range.

Indoor air volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are emitted from building materials, binders, furniture, pesticides, and other sources. In such a situation, VOC detectors can be used to scan, monitor indoor VOC concentrations, locate sources, control ventilation systems, etc. expected to be widely used. It is therefore desirable to use high-sensitivity VOC detectors that can detect a range of VOCs within a building. Several VOC detectors are commercially available that reflect the situation in this way.

This part of ISO 16000 contains important quantitative and technical specifications for VOC testing methods aimed at increasing the reliability of VOC detection and realizing wider use of VOC detectors.

There are various types of VOC detectors with different detection principles, such as semiconductor type, PID type and interference enhanced reflection type detectors. The working principle of the semiconductor type detector depends on the electrical conductivity changes that occur by chemical absorption on the surface of the heated sensing element when exposed to gases other than air. Gas concentrations are determined by measuring the change in resistance.
