Full Description

ISO 11171:2016 specifies procedures for the following:

a) primary particle-sizing calibration, sensor resolution and counting performance of automatic particle counters (APCs) for liquids capable of analysing bottle samples;

b) secondary particle-sizing calibration using suspensions verified with a primary calibrated APC;

c) establishing acceptable operation and performance limits;

d) verifying particle sensor performance using a truncated test dust;

e) determining coincidence and flow rate limits.
