Standard operating procedure for measurement of CO in ambient air by gas filter correlation (GFC)

Description

To obtain timely data for the purpose of air quality assessment, air quality trend reporting, air quality index reporting and to meet the requirements for inclusion of the data in provincial and national air quality databases, a continuous method of analyzing Carbon Monoxide (CO) concentrations in ambient air is used. This method is capable of measurement updates at a rate of once every five minutes or faster. Readings from instruments of this method enables the calculation of hourly averaged concentrations of CO. Commercially available CO analyzers are used in the method.
