scope:
This standard defines a laboratory method for measuring the emission rate of fume from arc welding using a fume box technique. It also defines a method of collecting the fume for subsequent analysis and refers to suitable analytical techniques. The methodology is suitable for use with all open arc welding processes but the design of the fume box used may vary depending upon the welding process and whether or not the welding can be conducted automatically.
The emission rate method can be used to evaluate the effects of welding electrodes and wires, welding parameters, processes, shielding gases, test piece composition, test piece surface condition etc on fume emission rate. Following analysis of the fume collected, the effects of test parameters on fume composition can also be determined.
