Significance and Use4.1 These test methods are applicable for such purposes asimpurity detection and, in some cases, the quantitative mea-surement of ionic constituents dissolved in waters. The

19、seinclude 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 condensed steam (seeTest Methods D 2186 and D 4519, and

20、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. Interferences5.1 Exposure of a sample to the atmosphere may causechan

21、ges 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, candrastically increase the conductivity of pure waters by approx

22、i-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 precipitating materials in thesample can form a coating on the elect

23、rodes 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 appropriate solvents.5.3 If an unshielded cell is used to measure

24、 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 equivalent, and that the cables andinstrument also be shielded.6.

25、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 thecell and any extension leadwire, shall be designed to

26、 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 at the electrode/solution inter-face can allow charging

27、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 leadwire can shunt themeasurement and cause positive conductivit

28、y 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 drive voltage, wave shape, frequency,phase correction, wave

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 drivecircuit to prevent interaction between a solution ground at thec

34、ell and an external circuit ground.6.2 Cells:6.2.1 Flow-through or in-line cells shall be used for mea-suring conductivities lower than 10 S/cm (resistivities higherthan 100 000 ohm cm), to avoid contamination from theatmosphere. However, samples with conductivity greater than10 S/cm may also be mea

35、sured. 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 constant shall be chosen which will give amoderate cell resistance,

36、 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 sample through or past it ispossible. Flow rate should be maintained

37、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 shall exclude the atmo-sphere and be constructed of corrosion resi

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 or flash ofplatinum black may be used on cells for measurements i

39、n 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 electrodesmay require special surface preparation. Titanium and monele

40、lectrodes 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 recommended that cells intended for the measure-ment of conduct

41、ivities 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 automatic temperature compen-sation, or all of these. Thermometers

42、, 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 temperature probes should bechecked periodically by comparison to a r

Unless otherwise indicated, it is intended thatall reagents shall conform to the specifications of the Commit-tee on Analytical Reagents of the American Chemical Society

In making up the potassiumchloride solutions for cell constant determinations, use water ofconductivity not greater than 1.5 S/cm. If necessary, stabilizeto the laboratory atmosphere by aspirating air through thewater from a fritted

47、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. The equilibriumconductivity must be added to Table 1.7.3 Alcohol95 % ethyl alcohol. Alternatively, use isopro-pyl alcohol or methyl alcohol.7.4 Aqua Re
