Our paper presents the motives for conducting the equivalence tests and the reasons of discrepancies between the results of PM10 dust concentration obtained via the reference method and the methods based on 'on-site' measurement. The reference and non-reference methods of measurement of PM10 dust concentration in air have been discussed. Field tests for equivalence, following the Polish standard and the European Union (EU) guidelines, carried out by the ARMAAG Foundation in the Tr-City region, have been analyzed. Collection factors with respect to the 'on-site' samplers, obtained in various measurement stations in the EU member countries, also are presented.
