Laboratory test method for assessing the performance of gas-phase air-cleaning systems: air-cleaning devices.

Author(s) : ASHRAE

Type of monograph: Booklet, Standard/Recommendation

Summary

The air processed by building HVAC systems typically contains a variety of contaminants in gaseous form. The concentrations of these contaminants may vary from trace amounts in most cases to the toxic levels that can be encountered near a spill or some other extraordinary event. Whenever gaseous contaminants reach unacceptable levels - or may be expected to reach such levels - air cleaning may be used to improve the usability of the space or to protect the building occupants, the HVAC system components, or the contents of the building. These concerns exist not only for commercial buildings but for industrial workspaces as well. Gaseous air contaminants can be removed by various air-cleaning processes. This standard provides a performance test method both for individual filters and for complete devices designed to be used for full-scale commercial in-duct gaseous contaminant air cleaning.
