Operating Limits

x= 1ni=1nX1, y= 1ni=1nY1   (Eq. 1)

 

Where:

X1 = the PM CPMS data points for the three runs constituting the performance test,

Y1 = the PM concentration value for the three runs constituting the performance test, and

n = the number of data points.

 

R= Y1X1-z                      (Eq. 2)

 

Where:

R = the relative mg/dscm per milliamp for the PM CPMS,

Y1 = the three run average mg/dscm PM concentration,

X1 = the three run average milliamp output from the PM CPMS, and

z = the milliamp equivalent of the instrument zero paragraph (9)(b)(A) of this rule.

 

Ol=z+0.75(L)R                    (Eq. 3)

 

Where:

Ol = the operating limit for the PM CPMS on a 30-day rolling average, in milliamps.

L = the source emission limit expressed in lb/Mmbtu,

z = the instrument zero in milliamps, determined from paragraph (9)(b)(A) of this rule, and

R = the relative mg/dscm per milliamp for the PM CPMS, from Equation 3.

 

Oh= 1ni=1nX1                    (Eq. 4)

 

Where:

X1 = the PM CPMS data points for all runs i,

n = the number of data points, and

Oh = the site specific operating limit, in milliamps.

Initial and Annual Performance Testing

 

Cadj = Cmeas (20.9 - 7)/(20.9 - %O2)                (Eq. 5)

 

Where: Cadj = pollutant concentration adjusted to 7 percent oxygen;

Cmeas = pollutant concentration measured on a dry basis;

(20.9 - 7) = 20.9 percent oxygen - 7 percent oxygen (defined oxygen correction basis);

20.9 = oxygen concentration in air, percent; and

%O2 = oxygen concentration measured on a dry basis, percent.
