"Department" means the Department of Environmental Protection.

"Equipment diameter" means the diameter of a circular cross section having the same area as a noncircular cross section.

"Performance test" or "test" means a series of test runs used for the purpose of determining emissions of air contaminants to the outdoor atmosphere.

"Run" or "test run" means a single integrated measurement or procedure used for the purpose of collecting a sample of air contaminants emitted to the outdoor atmosphere during a specified time interval.

"Sample collector" means any device used to selectively separate and collect a sample of a specified contaminant from a gas stream, including, but not limited to, thimbles, filters, impingers, bubblers, cyclones, condensers and absorbers.
