ASHRAE Standard 185.3P, Method of Testing In-Room Devices and Systems for Microorganism Removal or Inactivation in a Chamber:
Purpose
- The standard establishes a method of test for evaluating in‐room air cleaners (IRACs) and systems for commercial or industrial consumers for microorganism removal or inactivation in a test chamber.
Scope
- The method of test specifies selected indicator microorganisms in the test chamber and defines procedures for generating the bioaerosols required for the method of test.
- This standard provides a method for counting the number of viable microorganisms in the test chamber to calculate the elimination efficiency for each microorganism.
- This standard establishes minimum performance specifications for the equipment required to conduct the tests, defines methods of calculating and reporting results obtained from the test data, and establishes a reporting system to be applied to IRACs and systems covered herein.
- This standard does not address the health and safety effects of operating IRACs and systems in an occupied room.
