Analysis:

Chlorodifluorométhane (F22)

Method: IRSST - 153-1
Sampling device:
Sampling media required:
#IRSSTDescription
2121 Activated charcoal 400/200 mg

Parameters:
Flow rate: 0,2 L/min
TWA sampling volume: 5 L
STEL sampling volume: -
Remarks: Chlorodifluoromethane must be sampled specifically due to the sampling device used. Freon 22. However, simultaneous sampling and analysis of 1,1,2-trichloro-1,2,2-ethane (Freon 113) are possible.
Principle: Gas chromatography with flame ionization detection (GC-FID)
Precision (%): 10,4
