3、overs the measurement of waterpresent in insulating liquids by coulometric Karl Fischertitration. This test method is used commonly for test specimensbelow 100 % relative saturation of water in oil. The coulom-etric test method is known for its high degree of sensitivity(typically 10 g H2O). This te

Summary of Test Method3.1 This test method is based on the reduction of iodinecontaining reagent according to the traditional Karl Fischerreaction. The proposed reaction mechanism is

9、c Karl Fischer test method requires theuse of an automatic titrator with commercially availablereagents. Karl Fischer instruments regenerate iodine coulo-metrically from the iodide in the Karl Fischer reagent. The testspecimen is injected into a titration cell where the iodineconsumed by the reactio

In both cells the anode

Interferences5.1 Compounds such as aldehydes, ketones, free halogens,most acids, and oxidizing or reducing agents may interferewith coulometric Karl Fischer titrators. If a drifting end pointis noted,

18、 an alternative solvent system or another titrationmethod is warranted. If this drifting end point cannot becorrected, the water values should be regarded as suspect. Adetailed discussion of interfering substances can be found inthe treatise on aquametry.55.2 Studies have shown that the water conten

19、t of an insu-lating liquid sample may be influenced significantly by thesample container.6A sample may either gain or lose water onstorage in a glass container depending upon the initial watercontent of the sample, the manner in which the container iscleaned and dried, and the length of storage time

20、 beforeanalysis. In addition, sample bottles should not be dried attemperature in excess of 110C and should be rinsed with theliquid being tested prior to taking the test specimen.5.3 Erroneous low readings may be obtained if previousspent oil test specimens are not removed from the solventsystem on

21、 a routine basis. Excess oil may not mix thoroughlywith the solvent system thus preventing the total water contentof that test specimen from being measured properly. Stirringshould be at such a rate that an oil layer will not form on topof the reagent. If such an oil layer does form while at theinst

22、ruments maximum stirrer speed, stop testing and removethe oil layer. If accurate results can not be obtained, thesolution should be discarded.5.4 Upon setting up of the titration vessel and solventsystem, the walls of the titration vessel should be wetted byswirling the solvent system solution aroun

37、he alcohol (ACS reagent grade) at 25Csuch that the final mixture consists of a two-phase system inwhich the lower water phase is at least 2 cm high. Initially, thissolution should be mixed thoroughly and allowed to stand atroom temperature for at least three days to achieve completeequilibration.NOT

38、E 1For the best accuracy the solution should not be mixed orshaken after standing. Remove the sample aliquot from the top phase andinject it immediately into the titration cell. The degree of saturation of thewater-saturated 1-Octanol varies 1 % between 10 and 30C.7.3.3 The response of the instrumen

39、t shall be verified with 1to 2 L of water; this can give a response value of 1000 to 2000g within the specified precision of the instrument.8. Safety Precautions8.1 Pyridine was the organic amine that was traditionallyused in Karl Fischer reagents; however, pyridine-free formu-lations are now availa

40、ble commercially. Pyridine-free reagentstitrate faster and are less toxic, less odorous, and more stablethan pyridine types. The reagents may contain potentiallyhazardous chemicals, such as iodine, pyridine, sulfur dioxide,methanol, chloroform, chlorinated hydrocarbons, or other or-ganic materials.

41、Wear chemical resistant gloves when mixingthe reagents and removing solution from the titration chamber.Care must be exercised to avoid unnecessary inhalation ofreagent vapors or direct contact of the reagents with the skin oreyes. Following accidental spillage, flush the affected area withcopious a

42、mounts of water.NOTE 2Carefully read and follow manufacturers instructions andMaterial Safety Data Sheet when using commercially available reagentsystems.9. Sampling9.1 The preferred method for sampling insulating liquids isPractice D 3613; however, Practices D 923 also are suitable. Ifthe test spec

43、imen is cloudy or contains free water, it may bedifficult to obtain a representative specimen.10. Preparation of Apparatus10.1 Thoroughly clean and dry the titration vessel and thenreassemble according to the manufacturers recommendations.Follow the instructions provided in Annex A2 for detailedinst

44、ructions on cleaning.10.2 Fill reagent reservoirs with appropriate reagents ac-cording to the manufacturers instructions.10.3 Turn the instrument on and allow to stabilize.11. Verification of System Operation11.1 The accuracy of titration of the instrument and reagentsshall be verified prior to begi

45、nning of testing by use of asuitable verification solution (see 7.3) containing a knownquantity of moisture. It is desirable to verify the systemoperation using a solution that approximates the same range ofwater expected to be in the samples. Verification solutions shallbe run with new reagents pri

46、or to testing. If verificationsolution results lie outside parameters established by themanufacturer for acceptable moisture content of the solution,reagents shall be changed and reverified.12. Procedure12.1 After verifying the system is operating properly, allowthe instrument to restabilize prior t

47、o use.12.2 Follow the manufacturers instructions for suggestedspecimen size for an expected range of moisture content.12.3 Using an appropriate syringe and needle (see 6.4 and6.5) sample the insulating fluid to be tested. Prior to sampling,rinse the syringe and needle with the liquid to be tested on

48、etime.12.4 Determine the sample mass by difference to threesignificant figures by weighing the test specimen before andafter injection. Alternately, inject a known volume of a samplewhose density is known at the test temperature to determinesample size.12.5 Reagent solutions can be used until verifi

49、cation solu-tions no longer test accurately. See Section 11 for instructionson the use of verification solutions.13. Calculation13.1 Most commercially available coulometric Karl Fischerinstruments automatically calculate the water content in ppm orpercent. If not, calculate the amount of water in the sample asfollows:Water Content, mg/kg ppm!5A/B (2)where:A = mass of water, (g) (instrument readout), andB = mass of test specimen, g.14.
