LIST OF DESIGNATED REFERENCE AND EQUIVALENT METHODS

Issue Date: June 6, 2012 

(www.epa.gov/ttn/amtic/criteria.html)

These methods for measuring ambient concentrations of specified air pollutants have been designated as 

"reference methods" or "equivalent methods" in accordance with Title 40, Part 53 of the Code of Federal Regulations 

(40 CFR Part 53). Subject to any limitations (e.g., operating range or temperature range) specified in the applicable 

designation, each method is acceptable for use in state or local air quality surveillance systems under 40 CFR Part 58 

unless the applicable designation is subsequently canceled. Automated methods for pollutants other than PM10 are 

acceptable for use only at shelter temperatures between 20°C and 30°C and line voltages between 105 and 125 volts 

unless wider limits are specified in the method description. 

Prospective users of the methods listed should note (1) that each method must be used in strict accordance with 

its associated operation or instruction manual and with applicable quality assurance procedures, and (2) that 

modification of a method by its vendor or user may cause the pertinent designation to be inapplicable to the method as 

modified. (See Section 2.8 of Appendix C, 40 CFR Part 58 for approval of modifications to any of these methods by 

users.) 

Further information concerning particular designations may be found in the Federal Register notice cited for 

each method or by writing to the National Exposure Research Laboratory, Human Exposure and Atmospheric Sciences 

Division (MD-D205-03), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Research Triangle Park, North Carolina 27711. 

Technical information concerning the methods should be obtained by contacting the source listed for each method. 

Source addresses are listed at the end of the listing of methods, except for the addresses for lead method sources, which 

are given with the method. New analyzers or PM10 samplers sold as reference or equivalent methods must carry a label 

or sticker identifying them as designated methods. For analyzers or PM10 or samplers sold prior to the designation of a 

method with the same or similar model number, the model number does not necessarily identify an analyzer or sampler 

as a designated method. Consult the manufacturer or seller to determine if a previously sold analyzer or sampler can be 

considered a designated method or if it can be upgraded to designation status. Analyzer users who experience 

operational or other difficulties with a designated analyzer or sampler and are unable to resolve the problem directly 

with the instrument manufacturer may contact EPA (preferably in writing) at the above address for assistance. 

This list will be revised as necessary to reflect any new designations or any cancellation of a designation 

currently in effect. The most current revision of the list will be available for inspection at EPA's Regional Offices, and 

copies may be obtained at the Internet site identified above or by writing to the National Exposure Research Laboratory 

at the address specified above.

Notes

1

 Users should be aware that designation of this analyzer for operation on ranges less than the range specified in the 

performance specifications for this analyzer (40 CFR 53, Subpart B) is based on meeting the same absolute performance 

specifications required for the specified range. Thus, designation of these lower ranges does not imply commensurably better 

performance than that obtained on the specified range. 

2

 This analyzer is approved for use, with proper factory configuration (if applicable), on either 50 or 60 Hertz line frequency 

and nominal power line voltages of 115 VAC and 230 VAC, or similar voltages as specified in the operation or instruction 

manual associated with the method.
