Testing Volume and Safe Repeatability
In order to achieve the required amount of ‘testing volume’ needed to validate real-world testing, three points must be considered:
- System accuracy
- Federal and/or state health and safety guidelines and/or standards
- Economic viability based on the first two points.
Once a particular portable emissions system has been identified and pronounced as accurate, the next step is to ensure that the worker(s) are properly protected from work hazards associated with the task(s) being performed in the use of the testing equipment. For example, typical functions for a worker may be to transport the equipment to the jobsite (i.e. car, truck, train, or plane), carry the equipment to the jobsite, and lift the equipment into position.

Famous quotes containing the words testing, volume and/or safe:
“Traditional scientific method has always been at the very best 20-20 hindsight. It’s good for seeing where you’ve been. It’s good for testing the truth of what you think you know, but it can’t tell you where you ought to go.”
—Robert M. Pirsig (b. 1928)
“To be thoroughly conversant with a Man’s heart, is to take our final lesson in the iron-clasped volume of despair.”
—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1845)
“Stupid misery of fame and money. Always we were safe from it, mistaking our obscurity for a curse when it was a treasure. Free to make what we liked, to be ourselves, even do nothing at all. No one watching. We could be real.”
—Kate Millett (b. 1934)
