Summary of Practice4.1 This practice is based on the photometric assay of ozone(O3) conce

10、ntrations in a dynamic flow system. The concentra-tion of O3in an absorption cell is determined from a measure-ment of the amount of 253.7 nm light absorbed by the sample.This determination requires knowledge of (1)4the absorptioncoefficient of O3at 253.7 nm, (2) the optical path lengththrough the s

11、ample, (3) the transmittance of the sample at awavelength of 253.7 nm, and (4) the temperature and pressureof the sample. The transmittance is defined as the ratio:I/Iowhere:I = the intensity of light that passes through the cell and issensed by the detector when the cell contains an O3sample, and1T

Each O3concentration is determined fro

Significance and Use5.1 The reacti

18、vity and instability of O3preclude the storageof O3concentration standards for any practical length of time,and precludes direct certification of O3concentrations asStandard Reference Materials (SRMs). Moreover, there is noavailable SRM that can be readily and directly adapted to thegeneration of O3

19、standards analogous to permeation devicesand standard gas cylinders for sulfur dioxide and nitrogenoxides. Dynamic generation of O3concentrations is relativelyeasy with a source of ultraviolet (UV) radiation. However,accurately certifying an O3concentration as a primary standardrequires assay of the

20、 concentration by a comprehensivelyspecified analytical procedure, which must be performed everytime a standard is needed (9).5.2 This practice is not designed for the routine calibrationof O3monitors at remote locations (see Practices D 5011).6. Apparatus6.1 Atypical complete UV calibration system

21、consists of anO3generator, an output port or manifold, a photometer, asource of zero air, and other components as necessary. Theconfiguration must provide a stable O3concentration at thesystem output and allow the photometer to assay accurately theoutput concentration to the precision specified for

22、the photom-eter. Fig. 1 shows the system, and illustrates the calibrationsystem. Ozone is highly reactive and subject to losses uponcontact with surfaces. All components between the O3genera-tor and the photometer absorption cell shall be of inertmaterial, such as glass or TFE-fluorocarbon. Lines an

23、d inter-connections shall be as short as possible, and all surfaces shallbe chemically clean. For certification of transfer standards thatprovide their own source of O3, the generator and possiblyother components shown in Fig. 1 may not be required (seePractices D 5011).6.1.1 UV Photometer, consisti

24、ng of a low-pressure mercurydischarge lamp, collimation optics (optional), an absorptioncell, a detector, and signal-processing electronics, as shown inFig. 1. It shall be capable of measuring the transmittance, I/Io,at a wavelength of 253.7 nm with sufficient precision that thestandard deviation of

25、 the concentration measurements does notexceed the greater of 0.005 ppm or 3 % of the concentration. Itshall incorporate means to assure that no O3is generated in thecell by the UV lamp. This is generally accomplished byabsorbing the 184.9 nm Hg line with a high silica window, orby isolating the 253

26、.7 nm Hg line with an interference filter. Inaddition, at least 99.5 % of the radiation sensed by the detectorshall be 253.7 nm. This is usually accomplished by using asolar blind photodiode tube. The length of the light paththrough the absorption cell shall be known with an accuracy ofat least 0.5

27、%. In addition, the cell and associated plumbingshall be designed to minimize loss of O3from contact withsurfaces (10).6.1.2 Air Flow Controller, capable of regulating air flows asnecessary to meet the output stability and photometer precisionrequirements.6.1.3 Flowmeters, calibrated in accordance w

28、ith PracticeD 3195.6.1.4 Ozone Generator, capable of generating stable levelsof O3over the required concentration range. It shall be stableover short periods to facilitate the sequential photometricmeasurement of I and Io, and to allow for stability of themonitor or transfer standard connected to th

29、e output manifold.Conventional UV-photolytic type generators may be adequate,but shall have line voltage and temperature regulation.6.1.5 Output Manifold, constructed of glass, TFE-fluorocarbon, or other nonreactive material. It shall be ofsufficient diameter to ensure a negligible pressure drop at

30、thephotometer connection and other output ports. The outputmanifold serves the function of providing an interface betweenthe calibration system and other devices and systems thatutilize the output O3concentrations. It shall have one or moreports for connection of the external instruments or systems,

31、 andshall be such that all ports provide the same O3concentrations.The vent, which exhausts excess gas flow from the system andinsures that the manifold outlet ports are kept at atmosphericpressure for all flowrates, shall be large enough to avoidappreciable pressure drop, and shall be located downs

32、tream ofthe output ports to ensure that no ambient air enters themanifold due to eddy currents, back diffusion, and so forth.6.1.6 Three-Way Valve, constructed of TFE-fluorocarbon, toswitch the flow through the absorption cell from zero air (forthe Iomeasurement) to manifold gas (for the I measureme

33、nt).6.1.7 Temperature Indicator, accurate to 61C. This indi-cator is needed to measure the temperature of the gas in thephotometric cell to calculate a temperature correction. In mostphotometers, particularly those whose cell is enclosed inside acase or housing with other electrical or electronic co

34、mponents,the cell operates at a temperature somewhat above ambientroom temperature. Therefore, it is important to measure theD 5110 98 (2004)2temperature of the gas inside the cell, and not room tempera-ture. A small thermocouple or thermistor, connected to anexternal readout device, may be attached

35、 to the cell wall orinserted through the cell wall to measure internal cell tempera-ture. The point of temperature sensing shall be representativeof the average cell temperature. The temperature sensingdevice shall be calibrated against a NIST certified thermometerinitially, and at periodic interval

36、s, subject to the laboratoryquality control checks (11). See Method E 220 or Test MethodsE 644 for calibration procedures.6.1.8 Barometer or Pressure Indicator, accurate to 250 Pa (2torr). The barometer or pressure indicator is used to measurethe pressure of the gas in the cell to calculate a pressu

37、recorrection. Most photometer cells operate at atmosphericpressure. If there are no restrictions between the cell and theoutput manifold, the cell pressure should be very nearly thesame as the local barometric pressure. A certified local baro-metric pressure reading can then be used for the pressure

38、correction. If the cell pressure is different from the localbarometric pressure, some means of accurately measuring thecell pressure (manometer, pressure gauge, or pressure trans-ducer) is required. This device shall be calibrated against asuitable pressure standard, in accordance with Test MethodsD

39、 3631.6.1.9 Output Indicating Device, such as continuous stripchart recorder or digital volt meter.6.1.9.1 If a recorder is used, it shall have the followingspecifications:Accuracy 60.25 % of spanChart width no less than 150 mmTime for full-scale travel 1 s6.1.9.2 If a digital volt meter is used, it

40、 shall have anaccuracy of 60.25 % of range.7. Reagents and Materials7.1 Zero AirFree of O3and any substance that by itself orwhose decomposition products from the ozonizer might reactwith O3, absorb 255.7 nm light, or undergo photolysis (forexample NO, NO2, ethylene, and particulate matter). The air

41、shall be purified to remove such substances. Dirty air shall beprecleaned to remove particulate matter, oil mist, liquid water,and so forth.FIG. 1 Schematic Diagram of a Typical UV Photometric Calibration SystemD 5110 98 (2004)37.1.1 The following describes a system that has been usedsuccessfully: T

42、he air is dried with a membrane type dryer,5followed by a column of indicating silica gel. The air isirradiated with a UV lamp to generate O3, to convert NO toNO2and then passed through a column of activated charcoal (6to 14 mesh) to remove NO2,O3, hydrocarbons, and variousother substances, a column

43、 of molecular sieve (6 to 16 mesh,type 4A), and a final particulate filter (2 m) to removeparticulate matter. (WarningAn important requirement inphotometer operation is that the zero air supplied to thephotometer during the Iomeasurement is from the same sourceas that used for the generation of O3.

44、The impurities present inzero air from different sources can significantly affect thetransmittance of an air sample. This requirement presents noproblem if the configuration shown in Fig. 1 is used. However,there may be a problem in certifying O3generator transferstandards that have their own source

45、 of zero air or O3(seePractices D 5011). The zero air produced in 7.1.1 is very dry.The O3response of some measurement methods (for example,ethylene chemiluminescence, KI bubblers) is affected bychanges in relative humidity. This dependence should be takeninto account when reporting results.)8. Haza

46、rds8.1 Safety HazardsSee Practice D 3249 for safety precau-tions on the use of monitors and electronic equipment.8.1.1 Ozone is a toxic gaseous substance. See PracticeE 591 for biological effects, and for safety and health require-ments.8.1.2 The manifold vents and photometer and monitorexhausts mus

47、t be vented to remove exhaust gases from theworkplace. Care shall be taken to avoid a back pressure in thecell and manifold, and in the monitor or transfer standard beingcalibrated.9. Preparation of Apparatus9.1 ConditioningThe system shall be conditioned byflowing O3at maximum concentration for 10

48、to 30 mininitially, and after periods of time while the system was notused, prior to reuse.9.2 General OperationA photometer used as a primarystandard shall be dedicated exclusively to calibration serviceand specifically not used for ambient monitoring or as atransfer standard. The reason for this r

49、equirement is that thephotometer must be intrinsically accurate and not exposed tooutside effects. If it is used for other purposes, it will eventuallybecome dirty and will be prone to O3losses and will giveerratic readings. Reserving the photometer for use as a primarystandard, where only clean, dry, filtered gas passes through thecell, will minimize loss of accuracy. A photometer used as atransfer standard will be subjected to environmental condi-tions, which may have an effect on its output.9.3 Photometer VerificationsSince the accuracy of thecalibration standard
