1.1 This specification covers requirements for premoistened wipe materials that are used to collect settled dusts on surfaces for the subsequent determination of beryllium.

1.2 For wipe materials used for the determination of lead in surface dust, refer to Specification E1792. This is mentioned to insure that users of wipes recognize that there is some relationship between wipes and the analyte of interest.

1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard.

1.4 This specification contains notes that are explanatory and are not part of the mandatory requirements of the specification.

1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

2. Referenced Documents (purchase separately) The documents listed below are referenced within the subject standard but are not provided as part of the standard.
