BS ISO 19701:2013

This standard BS ISO 19701:2013 Methods for sampling and analysis of fire effluents is classified in these ICS categories:

• 13.220.01 Protection against fire in general
• 13.220.40 Ignitability and burning behaviour of materials and products

This International Standard presents a range of sampling and chemical analytical methods suitable for the analysis of individual chemical species in fire atmospheres. The procedures relate to the analysis of samples extracted from an apparatus or effluent flow from a fire test rig or physical fire test model and are not concerned with the specific nature of the fire test.

This International Standard doesn’t cover aerosols (detailed in Reference [3]) and FTIR technique (detailed in Reference [4]). The gases of environmental interest, such as PAH, dioxins, furans, endocrinal disturbers, will be developed in a future document by ISO TC92/SC3.
