1、Designation: D 2685 95 (Reapproved 2003)Standard Test Method forAir and Carbon Tetrafluoride in Sulfur Hexafluoride by GasChromatography1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 2685; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case

2、 of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of air (Note1) and carbon tetrafluoride as impuri

3、ties in sulfur hexafluoride.NOTE 1Nitrogen, oxygen, or any of their mixtures is considered to beair. Commercial grade air or nitrogen is used for standardization.1.2 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the u
