6.3 Measurement System Preparation,
Analy: Calibration Error. and Sampling
System Bias Check. Follow Sections 6.2
through 6.4 of Method 6C.
7. Emission Test Procedure.
7.1 Selection of Sampling Site and
Sampling Points. Select 8 measurement site
and sampling points using the same criteria
that are applicable to tests performed using
Method 3.
7.2 Sample Collection. Position the
sampling probe at the first measurement
point. and begin sampling at the same rate as
used during the sampling system bias check.
Maintain constant rate sampling (i.e., +10
percent) during the entire run. The sampling
time per run shall be the same as for tests
conducted using Method 3 plus twice the
system response time. For each run, use only
those measurements obtained after twice the
response time of the measurement system has
elapsed to determine the average effluent
concentration.
7.3 Zero and Calibration Drift Test.
Follow Section 7.4 of Method 6C.
8. Quality Control Procedures.
The following quality control procedures
are recommended when the results of this
method are used for an emission rate
correction factor. or excess air determination.
The tester should select one of the following
options for validating measurement results:
8.1 If both O₂ and CO₂ are measured
using Method 3A. the procedures described in
