10000 ppm 1%<br />

Table 16: Particle concentration in ppm and % with subdivisions<br />

Please note<br />

Because of the variation of a gas volume with temperature and pressure changes<br />

it is necessary to use one of the following alternatives for describing a concentration<br />

value:<br />

• additional specification of gas temperature and pressure values<br />

existing during measurement<br />

or<br />

• conversion of the measured concentration value into the corresponding value<br />

at standard zero conditions, see the following chapter.<br />

After conversion, the volume is expressed as standard volume<br />

(standard cubic meter, Nm 3 or m 3 N).<br />

Standard zero conditions of a gas<br />

The volume of a gas depends on its actual temperature and pressure.<br />

To achieve <strong>com</strong>parable results a standard zero volume has been defined:<br />

A gas has its standard zero volume at a pressure of 1013 mbar (hPa)<br />

and a temperature of 273 K (corresponding to 0 °C).<br />
