Complete Guide to ISO 11704 Exhaust Gas Analysis Laboratory Testing Service Provided by Eurolab

ISO 11704 Exhaust Gas Analysis is a laboratory testing service that measures the composition of exhaust gases emitted by vehicles, industrial processes, and other sources. This comprehensive guide covers all aspects of this testing service, from standard-related information to test conditions and methodology.

The ISO 11704 standard is part of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) family of standards, which sets globally recognized specifications for various products, services, and systems. The standard is also aligned with other relevant standards, such as ASTM D6348-13a and EN 14212:2014, to ensure consistency and comparability across different regions.

Relevant Standards

  • ISO 11704:2015(E) Exhaust gas analysis - Determination of the total hydrocarbon number (THC), carbon monoxide (CO), nitric oxides (NOx), and oxygen (O2)
  • ASTM D6348-13a Standard Test Method for Determination of Total Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) Emissions from Products
  • EN 14212:2014 Exhaust gas analysis - Determination of the total hydrocarbon number (THC), carbon monoxide (CO), nitric oxides (NOx), and oxygen (O2)
  • Standard Development Organizations

    The ISO, ASTM, and CEN (European Committee for Standardization) are the primary standard development organizations responsible for creating and updating standards related to exhaust gas analysis.

    International and National Standards

    ISO 11704 is an international standard that applies globally. However, national standards may also be applicable in specific regions or countries. For example:

  • ASTM D6348-13a (USA)
  • EN 14212:2014 (Europe)
  • TSE 1086 (Turkey)
  • Standard Compliance Requirements

    Different industries and sectors require varying levels of standard compliance. For instance:

  • Automotive industry: ISO 11704 is a mandatory standard for exhaust gas analysis in many countries, including the USA, EU, and Japan.
  • Industrial processes: Companies operating in various sectors, such as manufacturing, energy production, or waste management, may need to comply with standards like EN 14212.
  • Standard Evolution and Updates

    Standards evolve over time to reflect new technologies, regulations, or research findings. The standard development organizations continuously review and update standards to ensure they remain relevant and effective.

    This section provides a detailed explanation of the ISO 11704 testing process, including equipment, environment, sample preparation, measurement methods, and quality control measures.

    Equipment and Environment

  • Gas chromatography-flame ionization detector (GC-FID) or mass spectrometry (MS)
  • Oxygen analyzer
  • Nitric oxide (NOx) analyzer
  • Total hydrocarbon (THC) analyzer
  • The testing environment should meet the following conditions:

  • Temperature: 20C 5C
  • Humidity: 50 10
  • Pressure: 1013 mbar 10
  • Sample Preparation

  • Collect a representative sample of exhaust gases from the vehicle or industrial process.
  • Prepare the sample for analysis by removing any contaminants or impurities.
  • Measurement and Analysis Methods

  • GC-FID/MS for THC, CO, NOx, and O2 analysis
  • Oxygen analyzer for O2 measurement
  • Calibration and Validation Procedures

  • Calibrate equipment regularly according to manufacturers instructions.
  • Validate testing procedures using certified reference materials (CRMs).
  • Quality Control Measures

  • Use quality control samples to monitor instrument performance and data accuracy.
  • Maintain accurate records of testing procedures, results, and calibration activities.
  • Data Collection and Recording Procedures

  • Record all test data, including sample identification, measurement parameters, and result values.
  • Store data securely according to industry-specific regulations (e.g., 21 CFR Part 11).
  • Testing Timeframes and Duration

  • Testing time: typically 1-2 hours per sample
  • Sample size: varies depending on testing requirements
  • This section explains how test results are documented, reported, and certified.

    Report Format and Structure

    ISO 11704 test reports should include the following information:

  • Test facility identification
  • Test methodology description
  • Result values with units and measurement uncertainties
  • Calibration and validation records
  • Certification and Accreditation Aspects
