Emissions
Monitor (CEM) system to independent Reference
Method data. LEHDER typically follows the Environment
Canada methodology (EPS 1/PG/7) when conducting
RATA programs.
| Typical parameters
monitored for CEM RATA test programs are: |
 |
Oxygen (O2) |
|
Carbon Dioxide (CO2) |
|
Carbon Monoxide (CO) |
|
Oxides of Nitrogen (NOX) |
|
Sulphur dioxide (SO2) |
|
Stack Gas Velocity |
|
Stack Gas Volumetric Flow Rate |
|
Stack Gas Temperature |
|
Stack Gas Pressure |
Essentially, the plant CEM system data and LEHDER
reference method data are compared over the same
time period as one minute averages over a 30 minute
period. A minimum of nine tests (a maximum of
twelve tests) are completed to evaluate the plant
CEM system performance. LEHDER compares the data
after each test to determine the status of the
CEM system. Complete pass or fail data are provided
to the facility at the end of the day.
LEHDER can provide assistance with CEM Certification
Relative Accuracy Tests, Cylinder Gas Audits (CGAs),
Annual QA/QC Manual Audits and any other questions
regarding your facility CEM System.
