IS 16278 : Part 1 : 2014/ISO 15011-1 : 2009 : Health and Safety in Welding and Allied Processes Laboratory Method for Sampling Fumes and Gases Part 1 Determination of Fume Emission Rate During Arc Welding and Collection of Fumes for Analysis

Reaffirmed 2023

NATIONAL FOREWORD

This Indian Standard (Part 1) which is identical ISO 15011-1 : 2009 ‘Health and safety in welding and allied processes — Laboratory method for sampling fume and gases — Part 1: Determination of fume emission rate during arc welding and collection of fume for analysis’ issued by International Organization for Standardization (ISO) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards on the recommendation of the Welding General and Its Applications Sectional Committee and approval of the Metallurgical Engineering Division Council.

The text of ISO Standard has been approved as suitable for publication as an Indian Standard without deviations. Certain conventions are however not identical to those used in Indian Standards. Attention is particularly drawn to the following:

a) Wherever the words ‘International Standard’ appear referring to this standard, they should be read as ‘Indian Standard’.
