ISO Air Quality Standards
ISO Air Quality Standards
ISO
ISO (International Standards Organisation) is the worlds largest
developer and publisher of international standards.
ISO is a network of the national standards institutes of
159 countries, one member per country, with a Central
Secretariat in Geneva, Switzerland, that co-ordinates the
system. ISO is a non-governmental organisation that
forms a bridge between the public and private sectors.
On one hand, many of its member institutes are part of
the governmental structure of their countries, or are
mandated by their government. On the other hand, other
members have their roots uniquely in the private sector,
having been set up by national partnerships of industry
associations.

ISO12500
ISO12500 series has been introduced specifically to test
purification equipment and complements the ISO8573
series. ISO12500 currently consists of four parts:
Purification equipment

Coalescing filters
Oil Vapour Removal filters
Coalescing & Dust Removal filters
Water Separators

Testing of Coalescing & Dust Removal Filters
ISO12500-3:2009 provides a guide for choosing an
appropriate method of determining the solid particulate
removal efficiency rating by particle size. Measurement
methods are recommended based on the size range of the
particulates that the filter being tested has been designed
to remove. The test is performed as a type-test on filters as
being representative of a range. The following two particle
diameter size ranges are identified: Fine Filter Range - 0,01
< 5,0 m, and Coarse Filter Range, 5,0 40 m.
ISO7183:2007
ISO7183:2007 identifies test methods for measuring dryer
parameters including: pressure dewpoint, flow rate,
pressure drop, compressed air loss, power consumption
and noise emission. It also provides partial-load tests for
determining the performance of energy saving devices.
The standard is only applicable to compressed air dryers
working in the 0.5 16 bar g pressure range and include the
following dryer types: adsorption dryers, membrane dryers
and refrigeration dryers.
