Abstract
EPA has initiated a national QA program on the suppliers of Protocol Gases. In this program, which will operate continuously, Protocol Gases are obtained and analyzed by EPA. The results of this EPA analysis are then compared to the Certificate of Analysis supplied with the Protocol Gas. Reported here is a comparison between the results obtained by EPA on eight Protocol-2 Gases containing approximately 40 ppm of NO in nitrogen and the concentrations provided by the suppliers of the Protocol Gases. EPA's and the suppliers' values agreed within 2% for seven of the eight Protocol-2 Gases; the eighth differed by 2.5%.
