In August 2023, two new documents EVS-EN 15267-1:2023 and EVS-EN 15267-2:2023 were published to improve the measurement of air pollutants and support environmental protection.

Air quality monitoring equipment (AQME) is used to measure and monitor the quality of air in the environment. AQME can be used to measure a variety of air pollutants, including particulate matter, ground-level ozone, carbon monoxide, and nitrogen dioxide. It is used by a variety of stakeholders, including government agencies, businesses, and individuals.

The assessment of AQME is important to ensure that the equipment is accurate and reliable. The assessment is based on a number of factors, including the performance of the equipment, the quality management system of the manufacturer, and the surveillance of the manufacturing process. The assessment is a complex process that requires a number of expertise. It is an important part of ensuring that AQME is used to provide accurate and reliable data on air quality.

These documents establish the general principles of certification, including common procedures and requirements, for the certification of air quality monitoring facilities, as well as the initial assessment of the manufacturer's manufacturing control and the ongoing monitoring of the impact of subsequent design changes.
