ROHS Substances table 46 ROHS Name CAS TWAEV STEV Ceiling (mg/m³) Notes Sampling Device Flow L/min Volume TWAEV STEV (L) Principle MRV µg CVa (%) # meth. Remarks Antimony [7440-36-0], metal and compounds (as Sb) 0,5 Omega M-083700AF or Omega M- 1,5 180 FAAS 10 IRSST 55-2 082500AFP mixed cellulose ester filter 905 MCE filter-37 915 MCE filter-25 Specific sampling must be carried out for this substance. The analytical results are expressed as total antimony. Antimony trioxide (as Sb) 1309-64-4 0,5 C3 Omega M-083700AF or Omega M- 1,5 180 FAAS 10 IRSST 55-2 082500AFP mixed cellulose ester filter 905 MCE filter-37 915 MCE filter-25 Specific sampling must be carried out for this substance. The analytical results are expressed as total antimony. Antimony trioxide, production (as Sb) 1309-64-4 C2 RP EM Omega M-083700AF or Omega M- 082500AFP mixed cellulose ester filter 905 MCE filter-37 915 MCE filter-25 1,5 180 FAAS 10 IRSST 55-2 Specific sampling must be carried out for this substance. The analytical results are expressed as total antimony. ANTU (alpha- Naphthylthiourea) 86-88-4 0,3 Polytetrafluorocarbon (teflon) filter 1,5-2 480 HPLC-UV NIOSH S276 Contact the IRSST before sampling. Argon 7440-37-1 Ax DRI-elec IRSST 26-C Since argon is a simple asphyxiant, the field method for determination of oxygen in air is done with a direct-reading instrument (DRI). The minimum reported value is 1% oxygen. The reference method corresponds to calibration of the DRI. Arsenic, elemental [7440-38-2], and inorganic compounds (except Arsine) (as As) 0,1 Mixed cellulose ester filter 1-4 ICP NIOSH 7300 Contact the IRSST before sampling. The recommended sampling volume is 5 to 2000 litres. Arsenic trioxide, production 1327-53-3 C2 RP EM Mixed cellulose ester filter followed by a cellulose pad impregnated with sodium carbonate and glycerol. 1-3 1000 FAAS NIOSH 7901 Contact the IRSST before sampling. There is no reference value for the standard, but measurement could be required nonetheless by targeting the lowest possible limit of detection, given the C2 carcenogenicity notation. Arsine 7784-42-1 0,16 Activated charcoal tube 100/50 mg 0,01- 10 ET-AAS NIOSH 6001 0,2 Contact the IRSST before sampling. Stable for 6 days at 25°C. The different arsenic compounts can interfere with arsine. An MCE filter place before the tube can remove the aerosols.
ROHS Substances table 47 ROHS Name CAS TWAEV STEV Ceiling (mg/m³) Notes Sampling Device Flow L/min Volume TWAEV STEV (L) Principle MRV µg CVa (%) # meth. Remarks Asbestos, Actinolite 12172-67-7 1 f/cc 5 f/cc C1 EM Cassette with conductive extension and mixed cellulose ester filter, Environmental Express CS250080 918 MCE filter-25 0,5-16 PCM 400 IRSST 243-1 Open cassette sampling. A flow rate not exceeding 2.5 L/min is recommended for determining an average concentration. Supply at least 2 blanks per series of samples or 10% of sample total, whichever is highest. Send the samples in a cardboard box supplied by the IRSST (#3010). In relatively uncontaminated atmospheres, where the fibre concentration is much lower than 0.1 fibres/mL, use larger sampling volumes (3000 to 10000L) in order to obtain quantifiable densities. The method applies to the counting of all fibres whose refractive index is compatible with the mounting solution. The minimum reported value is 25 fibres/mm². Characterization of the fibres in bulk samples or in deposited dusts is done using method 244-2. An analysis using a transmission electron microscopy (TEM) method may be required for some materials containing fine asbestos fibres, for example floor tiles.
