BImSchV). 1.63 liter gas are sucked three times thru a filter paper. The grey coloration is subsequently compared with a soot dot comparison scale and the mean value of the three nearest soot indices is determined. For obvious reasons, a soot dot as low as possible (&lt;1) should be aimed at. This measurement can be performed using a manual soot pump. Alternatively several ecom flue gas analyser models (e.g. ecom-EN3-R, ecom-EN3-F, ecom-J2KNpro) offer the integral soot dot measurement via sampling system.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"class_list":["post-5638","glossar","type-glossar","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ecom.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/glossar\/5638","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ecom.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/glossar"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ecom.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/glossar"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ecom.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5638"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
