1、Designation: D2420 13Standard Test Method forHydrogen Sulfide in Liquefied Petroleum (LP) Gases (LeadAcetate Method)1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D2420; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the yea

2、r of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope*1.1 This test method2covers the detection of hydrogensulfide in liquefied petroleum (LP) gases. The sensitivity of t

3、hetest is about 4 mg/m3(0.15 to 0.2 grain of hydrogen sulfide per100 ft3) of gas.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. The values given in parentheses are for informationonly.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with i

The strips of paper shall be approximately50 mm long and 10 mm wide and containa3mmhole near oneend so they will hang freely vertical in the test apparatus.6.3 Gas Flow IndicatorCapable of measuring flow ratesin the range of 2 to 3 L of gas per minute.

Sampling7.1 Collect a representa

18、tive sample by Practice D1265 usinga clean, highpressure sample container which is inert tohydrogen sulfide.7.1.1 As an alternative sampling procedure, connect the testapparatus directly to the sample source and perform the test inthe field. This method of direct field measurement eliminatesany inac

19、curacy introduced by the sampling procedure orsample container.7.2 (WarningExperience has demonstrated that thechemical activity and physical absorptive properties of hydro-gen sulfide can cause the concentration of H2S in a liquefiedpetroleum gas sample to be depleted before analysis, evenwhen the

20、sample is contained in scrupulously clean, stainlesssteel sample cylinders. Conversely, an increase in sulfideconcentration has been found to occur when samples ofliquefied petroleum gas containing no hydrogen sulfide aretransferred in sample cylinders that have not been properlycleaned and which ha

21、ve been in use with samples containinghydrogen sulfide. This demonstrates that data obtained onsamples tested for hydrogen sulfide in the laboratory might notreliably represent the hydrogen sulfide concentration at thesample source.)8. Procedure8.1 Connect the test apparatus to the sample source by

22、useof a minimum length of highpressure tubing (see 6.5).8.2 Flush the line and apparatus for about 1 min.8.3 Fill the water bath with warm water (50 C to 70 C).Tap water is satisfactory.8.4 By use of the needle valve, adjust the rate of gas flow to2.3 6 0.2 L/min.8.5 Immediately, place a single stri

Remove the test paper and proceed asdescribed in Section 1

Interpretation of Results9.1 Compare the exposed test paper with a moist test paperthat has not been exposed.5Internal surface coatings and coated cylinders are available commercially.FIG. 1 Typical Apparatus for Detecting Hydrogen Sulfide in Liquefied Petroleum GasD2420 1329.1.1 In the absence

25、 of distinct coloration, interpret theresult as “negative” (“pass”).9.1.2 If there is a distinct coloration, wait 5 min beforeinterpreting the test results.9.1.2.1 If, after 5 min, the paper has no distinct coloration,interpret the result as “negative” (“pass”).NOTE 1The presence of methyl mercaptan

26、 in liquefied petroleum gasgives a distinct yellow stain to the test paper which, however, fadescompletely in less than 5 min.9.1.2.2 If, after 5 min, the paper does have a distinctcoloration, interpret the result as “positive” (“fail”).NOTE 2 Concentrations of H2S in LPG of 4 mg/m3and higher willgi

Precision and Bias11.1 In the case of passfail data or results from otherqualitative tests no generally accepted method for determiningprecision or bias

28、is currently available.11.2 BiasThe procedure in Test Method D2420 for mea-suring hydrogen sulfide has no bias because the value ofhydrogen sulfide is defined only in terms of this test method.12.
