Our company is accredited according to EN ISO/IEC 17025, for the ESSAY activities defined in technical annex 1318 / LE2491.

SCOPE: TSampling in the Environmental Sector:

Air quality:

In J. Aguirre s.l. we are qualified to perform Accredited Samples for the subsequent determination of PM₁₀ y PM_2,5 particles, following the standard EN 12341:2014. Two types of sampling can be carried out; one in fixed stations (measuring stations in continuous throughout the year, in which case the customer’s equipment must be accredited in a specific location with GPS coordinates); or take samples in situ, that is, carry accredited equipment from J. Aguirre s.l. to a location for a temporary campaign.

APPLICATIONS OF SAMPLING IN FIXED STATIONS:

Public Air Quality Networks.

Private Networks of Air Quality, well that they report data to the administration for the Evaluation of the Air Quality; either because its integrated environmental authorization (IEA) requires it; or by and for better and greater control of industrial processes.

APPLICATIONS OF SAMPLING IN SITU:

Obtaining the CORRECTION FACTOR of particulate matter monitors, demonstration of Equivalence.

Verification of aptitude with the standard reference method in Automatic Measurement Systems (AMS) of particulate matter PM₁₀ and PM_2,5 as indicated by EN 16450:2017.
Campaigns to measure PM₁₀ and/or PM_2,5 to see the impact of some industrial activity-construction-quarries etc. … in the population.

Sampling of PM₁₀ samples according to EN 12341:2014 for the subsequent determination of lead, cadmium, arsenic and nickel (Pb, Cd, AS and Ni) as described in EN 14902:2005.

Sampling of PM₁₀ saccording to EN 12341:2014 for the subsequent determination of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (benzo (a) pyrene) in ambient air as indicated by EN 15549:2008, relative to the improvement of air quality.
