Continuous Opacity Monitoring System definition

Continuous Opacity Monitoring System means all equipment required to determine opacity and data recording.
Continuous Opacity Monitoring System. (COMS) means a continuous monitoring system that measures the opacity of emissions.
Continuous Opacity Monitoring System or “COMS” means the total equipment used to sample and condition (if applicable), to analyze, and to provide a record of the opacity of emissions from a Unit.
