CONT

Dans le cas des poussières, l'échantillon est obtenu par aspiration d'une partie aliquote de l'effluent, par un système approprié, dans des conditions dite d'isocinétisme. [...] Le non respect de l'isocinétisme conduit à des erreurs graves pour les particules moyennes et grosses et influe peu sur les plus fines (pour ces dernières, on se rapproche d'un gaz homogène).
