1 Scope
This part of ISO 12500 specifies the test layout and test procedures required for testing hydrocarbon vapour adsorbentfilters used in compressed-air systems to determine their effectiveness in removing hydrocarbon vapours. The performance characteristics to be identified are
-
— adsorptive capacity;
-
— pressure drop (Δp).
This part of ISO 12500 defines one method of presenting filter performance as hydrocarbon vapour capacity, expressed in milligrams, from results obtained under test conditions.
