Summary and certification proposal
1.1 Summary
Ecotech Pty Ltd has commissioned TÜV Rheinland Energie und Umwelt GmbH to carry out
performance testing of the Serinus 30 measuring system for the component CO.
Testing was performed in compliance with the following standards and guidelines:
•
VDI Guideline 4202 Sheet 1: Performance criteria for performance tests of automated
ambient air measuring systems; Point-related measurement methods for gaseous
and particulate air pollutants, September 2010
•
VDI Guideline 4203 Sheet 3: Testing of automated measuring systems; Test proce-
dures for point related ambient air measuring systems for gaseous and particulate air
pollutants, September 2010
•
DIN EN 14626: Ambient air – Standard method for the measurement of the concen-
tration of carbon monoxide by non-dispersive infrared spectroscopy, December 2012
The Serinus 30 measuring system uses the method of non-dispersive infrared spectroscopy,
which serves as a reference method in the EU, to measure CO. Tests were performed in the
laboratory as well as during a three month field test in Cologne. The measured ranges were
as follows:
Table 1:
Measured range during testing

Measured range in [ppm] or [µmol/mol]
CO
0 – 100
0 – 86

The data refer to 20°C and 101.3 kPa
Minimum requirements were met during performance testing.
TÜV Rheinland Energie und Umwelt GmbH therefore suggests its type approval for continu-
ous measurement of carbon monoxide concentrations in ambient air.
