1 Scope
This document (all parts) specifies methods to determine chemical emission rates of
analyte
from ICT & CE
equipment
during intended operation in an Emission Test Chamber
(ETC).
This document (all parts) includes specific methods for equipment using consumables,
such as printers, and equipment not using consumables, such as monitors and
PC’s.
Part 1 specifies the methods to determine chemical emission rates of
analyte
from electronic equipment using consumables.
The methods comprise preparation, sampling (or monitoring) in a controlled ETC,
storage and analysis, calculation and reporting of emission rates.
Emission rates from EUT may also be determined according to additional requirements
identified by “RAL‑UZ 205 Option”.
Annex A specifies monochrome and colour print
patterns for use in the operating phase of EUT using
consumables.
The operational readiness of AMS is confirmed according to Annex B.
Calculations use the generalised model and approximations thereof as developed in
Annex C.
The emission rates determined with this method may be used to compare equipment in
the same class.
Predictions of “real indoor” concentrations from the determined
emissionrates are outside the scope of this document.
