.4.1 Testing of IIEPA Filter Banks. | |||
Perform the following steps on the high efficiency filter systems listed below and attach a completed test report for each filter .m - | |||
system to this procedure. , | |||
4.1.1 ~ Establish ai[ flow through the' filter being tested. Measure and . | |||
record the resistance across the filter bank. . | |||
4.1.2 Connect the penetrometer sampling line to upstream sampling port . | |||
and calibrate it against its built-in standard in accordance with t,he manufacturer's instruction. | |||
2~ ' | |||
4.1.3 For an' acceptance test of a new system, check the background dust concentration upstream and dounstream of the filters; the bdck- | |||
[ | |||
- ground dust concentration shall be Icss than 257. of the expected aerosol concentration during the test. .r - | |||

tion and adjust the generator as necessary. | |||
T | |||
) 4.1.5 . Connect the penetrometer to the upstream sample point, allow it to stabilize, and adjust it to read 507. or higher on the lowest sen-sitivity . scale, readjusting the DOP generator as necessary. Record 7 | |||
the upstream reading. It may prove in larger systems a lower or 1f i | |||
s | |||
'different scale reading is necessary to establish an upstream reading. | |||

; '4. 2 Testing of Iodine Adsorber Banks , | |||
Perform the following steps on each iodine adsorber bank listed' below and attach a completed test report for each, bank to this i procedure. | |||
4.2.1 Each iodine adsorber shall be inspected individually for any - | |||
[ visibic damage prior to testing. | |||
~; | |||
* 4.2.2 Establish air flow through the bank. | |||
T l 4.2.3 Conhect the sample lines to upstream and downstream sample points, establish detcetor operating conditions used in their calibration, establish . upstream dilution-air rat o to produce an upstream con-centration at the tracer gas detector which is within the linear | |||
)J response range. | |||
4.2.4 Take upstrena background samples and downstream background sampics , | |||
{g ,(5 minimum for noncontinuous detectors). If these show no back- . | |||
ground contaminants that might interfere with the test results, | |||
; continue with the test. If downstream interference;is too great to . | |||
1 obtain a base line, purge the bank at rated system air flow for 8 | |||
^ ~ | |||
to 12 hours, or change tracer gas. | |||
! 4.2.5 Estimate the tracer gas transit time from the generator on through , | |||
, i the injection port and system to the detector. Start the injection and after the estimated transit time, monitor the upstream concen-7 tration. The time when the initial tracer gas is detected is des-j ignated as time zero tracer gas R-11. | |||

ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA 5.1 Each IIEPA filter bank, except for those specified in step 5.3, shall have a miximum Icakage of 0.057. (cf ficiency of 99.957.) or as specified by the Contractor, based on the actual number of ,particules that pen-ctrate the filter when using the polydisperse acrosol, gen'erated from a liquid DOP having a particle diameter of 0.75 + 0.50 micron. , | |||
5.2 Each iodine adsorber bank si'all have an in-place maximum leakage of 1.07. (ef ficiency of 99.0%), or #a s specified by the Co tractor, based on the differential zero time concentration of the upstream and down- | |||
. stream sampics. It is understood that the test shous only acchanical i- Icak and does not- represent actual clemental iodine of methyl iodide , | |||
removal efficiency. , , | |||
f i | |||
-5. 3 The Sample Rack filters and Fume Hood filters shall have a masimum Icakage of 57. (efficiency of 95%) as specified by the DOP test in | |||

EQUIPMENT & SYSTEM TESTS
.4.1 Testing of IIEPA Filter Banks.
Perform the following steps on the high efficiency filter systems listed below and attach a completed test report for each filter .m -
system to this procedure. ,
4.1.1 ~ Establish ai[ flow through the' filter being tested. Measure and .
record the resistance across the filter bank. .
4.1.2 Connect the penetrometer sampling line to upstream sampling port .
and calibrate it against its built-in standard in accordance with t,he manufacturer's instruction.
2~ '
4.1.3 For an' acceptance test of a new system, check the background dust concentration upstream and dounstream of the filters; the bdck-
[
- ground dust concentration shall be Icss than 257. of the expected aerosol concentration during the test. .r -

the upstream reading. It may prove in larger systems a lower or 1f i
s
'different scale reading is necessary to establish an upstream reading.

- '4. 2 Testing of Iodine Adsorber Banks ,
Perform the following steps on each iodine adsorber bank listed' below and attach a completed test report for each, bank to this i procedure.
4.2.1 Each iodine adsorber shall be inspected individually for any -
[ visibic damage prior to testing.
~;
- 4.2.2 Establish air flow through the bank.
T l 4.2.3 Conhect the sample lines to upstream and downstream sample points, establish detcetor operating conditions used in their calibration, establish . upstream dilution-air rat o to produce an upstream con-centration at the tracer gas detector which is within the linear
)J response range.
4.2.4 Take upstrena background samples and downstream background sampics ,
{g ,(5 minimum for noncontinuous detectors). If these show no back- .
ground contaminants that might interfere with the test results,
- continue with the test. If downstream interference;is too great to .
1 obtain a base line, purge the bank at rated system air flow for 8

! 4.2.5 Estimate the tracer gas transit time from the generator on through ,
, i the injection port and system to the detector. Start the injection and after the estimated transit time, monitor the upstream concen-7 tration. The time when the initial tracer gas is detected is des-j ignated as time zero tracer gas R-11.

ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA 5.1 Each IIEPA filter bank, except for those specified in step 5.3, shall have a miximum Icakage of 0.057. (cf ficiency of 99.957.) or as specified by the Contractor, based on the actual number of ,particules that pen-ctrate the filter when using the polydisperse acrosol, gen'erated from a liquid DOP having a particle diameter of 0.75 + 0.50 micron. ,
5.2 Each iodine adsorber bank si'all have an in-place maximum leakage of 1.07. (ef ficiency of 99.0%), or #a s specified by the Co tractor, based on the differential zero time concentration of the upstream and down-
. stream sampics. It is understood that the test shous only acchanical i- Icak and does not- represent actual clemental iodine of methyl iodide ,
removal efficiency. , ,
f i
-5. 3 The Sample Rack filters and Fume Hood filters shall have a masimum Icakage of 57. (efficiency of 95%) as specified by the DOP test in
. Step 4.1.
