2、ar 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. Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of air (Note1) and carbon tetrafluoride as impurities in sulfur hexafl

3、uoride.NOTE 1Nitrogen, oxygen, or any of their mixtures is considered to beair. Commercial grade air or nitrogen is used for standardization.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.3 This standard does not purport

4、to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Summary of Test Method3.1 Air and carbon tetrafluoride are separated physically bygas chromatography and compared to corresponding compo-nents separat

6、ed under similar conditions from a referencestandard mixture of known composition. The individual com-pounds of air are not separated. The composition of the sampleis calculated from its chromatogram by comparing the area ofthe peak of each component with the area of the peak of thecorresponding com

7、ponent on the reference standard chromato-gram.4. Significance and Use4.1 Air and carbon tetrafluoride (CF4) are two contaminantsof interest in sulfur hexafluoride (SF6). Both of these contami-nants adversely affect the performance of SF6when used as anelectrical insulating gas. Specification for ma

8、ximum levels ofthese contaminants are given in Specification D2472.4.2 Gas chromatography is used to separate these contami-nants from a sample of SF6and to determine their concentra-tion.5. Apparatus5.1 Gas Chromatograph, consisting of a sample inlet sys-tem, adsorption column, flow meter, detector

9、, and data han-dling system. Ensure that the column material of constructionand sample components are compatible. The apparatus mustcompletely separate air, carbon tetrafluoride, and sulfurhexafluoride as indicated by return of the recorded peak to thebase line between each successive peak. Chromato

10、grams mustbe reproducible so that successive runs of a reference standardagree on each component peak area or height within 5 %.
