18、a-surement of ionic constituents dissolved in waters. Theseinclude dissolved electrolytes in natural and treated waters,such as boiler water, boiler feedwater, cooling water, and salineand brackish water.4.1.1 Their concentration may range from trace levels inpure waters (1)4to significant levels in

19、 condensed steam (seeTest Methods D 2186 and D 4519, and Ref (2), or pure saltsolutions.4.1.2 Where the principal interest in the use of conductivitymethods is to determine steam purity, see Ref (3). These testmethods may also be used for checking the correctness ofwater analyses (4).5. Interference

20、s5.1 Exposure of a sample to the atmosphere may causechanges in conductivity/resistivity, due to loss or gain ofdissolved gases. This is extremely important in the case of verypure waters with low concentrations of dissolved ionizedmaterials. The carbon dioxide, normally present in the air, candrast

21、ically increase the conductivity of pure waters by approxi-mately 1 S/cm. Contact with air should be avoided by usingflow-through or in-line cell where feasible. Chemically pureinert gases, such as nitrogen or helium, may be used to blanketthe surface of samples.5.2 Undissolved or slowly precipitati

22、ng materials in thesample can form a coating on the electrodes of the conductivitycell that may cause erroneous readings. For example, biofoul-ing of the cell or a build-up of filming amines may cause poorcell response. In most cases these problems can be eliminatedby washing the cells with appropri

23、ate solvents.5.3 If an unshielded cell is used to measure the resistivity/conductivity of high resistivity water there is a possibility ofelectrical pickup causing erroneous reading. For this reason itis recommended that conductivity cells for this application beof coaxial shielded type or equivalen

24、t, and that the cables andinstrument also be shielded.6. Apparatus6.1 Measuring CircuitThe instrument may be a manuallyoperated wheatstone bridge or the equivalent, or a directreading analog or digital meter. Instruments shall energize theconductivity cell with alternating current and, together with

25、 thecell and any extension leadwire, shall be designed to reduceerrors from the following sources:6.1.1 In highly conductive solutionsUncompensated elec-trode polarization due to excessive current density at theelectrode surfaces can cause negative conductivity errors.Insufficient series capacitance

26、 at the electrode/solution inter-face can allow charging effects to distort the a-c measurementand cause errors if not compensated. Leadwire resistance canadd significantly to the measured resistance.6.1.2 In low conductivity solutionsExcessive parallel ca-pacitance in the cell and extension leadwir

27、e can shunt themeasurement and cause positive conductivity errors. Tempera-ture compensation errors can be significant below 5 S/cm ifvariable coefficient algorithms are not employed as describedin Test Method D 5391.6.1.3 These sources of error are minimized by an appropri-ate combination of a-c dr

28、ive voltage, wave shape, frequency,phase correction, wave sampling technique and temperaturecompensation designed in by the instrument manufacturer. Theinstrument manufacturers recommendations shall be followedin selecting the proper cell constant, leadwire size, and lengthand maintenance of the ele

29、ctrode surface condition for therange of measurement. Calibration may be in either conduc-tivity or resistivity units.6.1.4 When an output signal is required from an on-lineinstrument, it shall be electrically isolated from the cell drive4The boldface numbers in parentheses refer to the list of refe

Howeve

34、r, samples with conductivity greater than10 S/cm may also be measured. In all other cases, pipet-typeor dip cells can also be used. Pipet or dip cells may be used tomeasure samples in the range of 1 to 10 S/cm if the sample isprotected by an inert gaseous layer of nitrogen or helium.6.2.2 A cell con

35、stant shall be chosen which will give amoderate cell resistance, matching the instrument manufactur-ers requirements for the range of measurement. For laboratorybridges, Table 2 provides conservative guidelines.6.2.3 Flow-through and in-line cells shall be mounted sothat continuous flow of the sampl

36、e through or past it ispossible. Flow rate should be maintained at a constant rateconsistent with the manufacturers recommendations for thecell being used, particularly at conductivities below 10 S/cm.The cell shall retain calibration under conditions of pressure,flow, and temperature change, and sh

37、all exclude the atmo-sphere and be constructed of corrosion resistant, chemicallyinert materials. The chamber or cell shall be equipped withmeans for accurate measurement of the temperature.6.2.4 Platinized cells shall not be used for measurement ofconductivities below 10 S/cm, except that a trace o

38、r flash ofplatinum black may be used on cells for measurements in therange of 0.1 to 10 S/cm (see 9.4). Because of the cost andfragility of platinum cells, it is common practice to usetitanium, monel, and graphite electrodes for measurementswith accuracies on the order of 1 %. Note that these electr

39、odesmay require special surface preparation. Titanium and monelelectrodes are especially suitable for high resistance solutionssuch as ultrapure water, but may introduce a small surfaceresistance which limits their accuracy when the measuredresistance is less than a few thousand ohms (1).6.2.5 It is

40、 recommended that cells intended for the measure-ment of conductivities below 10 S/cm be reserved exclusivelyfor such applications.6.3 Temperature Probes:6.3.1 For Temperature ControlThe measurement of tem-perature is necessary for control of a temperature bath, manualtemperature compensation, or au

41、tomatic temperature compen-sation, or all of these. Thermometers, thermistors, and resis-tance temperature detectors with accuracies of 60.1C orbetter are acceptable for this application. An ASTM precisionthermometer, Number 63C, as defined in Specification E1,isrecommended. The calibration of tempe

42、rature probes should bechecked periodically by comparison to a reference temperatureprobe whose calibration is traceable to the U.S. NationalInstitute of Science and Technology (formerly NBS) or equiva-lent.6.3.2 For Temperature CorrectionA thermometer accu-rate to 0.1C is acceptable for this applic

Unless otherwise indicated, it is intended thatall reagents shall conform to the specifications of the Co

44、mmit-tee on Analytical Reagents of the American Chemical Society,where such specifications are available.5Other grades may beused, provided it is first ascertained that the reagent is ofsufficiently high purity to permit its use without lessening theaccuracy of the determination.7.2 Purity of WaterU

45、nless otherwise indicated, referencesto water shall be understood to mean reagent water conformingto Specification D 1193, Type I. In making up the potassiumchloride solutions for cell constant determinations, use water ofconductivity not greater than 1.5 S/cm. If necessary, stabilizeto the laborato

46、ry atmosphere by aspirating air through thewater from a fritted glass or stainless steel gas dispersion tube.The equilibrium point is reached when the conductivity re-mains constant but not greater than 1.5 S/cm.
