Abstract
New EPA regulations (40 CFR Part 50, Appendix D) allow the use of transfer standards for the calibration of ambient ozone monitors. This document is a reference aid to help users select ozone transfer standards and reference them to a primary UV standard. It defines ozone transfer standards, explains their purpose and role in calibrating ambient ozone analyzers, and discusses various advantages and disadvantages of their use. Several different types of ozone transfer standards are described, including analytical instruments, manual analytical procedures and ozone generation devices. The major part of the document is devoted to the procedures necessary to establish the authority of ozone transfer standards. Appendix A contains the UV primary ozone standard procedure. Other appendices give more specific guidance for the qualification and certification of several common and practical types of transfer standards--the BAKI manual procedure, two gas phase titration procedures, ozone generators, and ozone analyzers.
