Method Approval

GB/T 30728,UNI 15104,ISO 16948 and ASTM

Procedure
1. Prepare instrument as outlined in the operator’s instruction manual (perform maintenance and
leak checks, etc.).
2. Purging and analyze blanks until instrument is stable (nitrogen results will reach a plateau),
3. (4-5) blanks and (1-2) waste samples to condition the instrument
4. 3 samples of calibration substance to check or carry out the calibration;
5. Test 9 samples
6. 2 samples of calibration substance to check the calibration;
7. Repetition of point 5 to point 6 until all samples are processed;

Note: Do Calibrating refer to operator’s instruction manual for details.
