United States13.2.1.1 Discussion

16、In high purity water measurements, the cell constant is normally between 0.001 and 0.1 cm1 to prevent electrical interference.This is lower than the 1 cm1 of the standard centimetre cube and is taken into account by direct reading instrument ranges thatare matched with specific cell constants.4. Sum

17、mary of Test Method4.1 Conductivity or resistivity is measured with a cell and temperature sensor or compensator in a flowing, closed system toprevent trace contamination from wetted surfaces and from the atmosphere. Specialized temperature compensation corrects themeasurement to 25C, taking into ac

18、count the temperature effects on the ionization of water, the contaminants, and interactionsbetween the two. In the absence of specialized temperature compensation, the sample temperature is controlled to 25 6 0.2C.4.2 To determine the cell constant of a high purity conductivity cell with an instrum

19、ent capable of accurate measurement overthe range of pure water to 150 S/cm with a single cell constant,Test Methods D1125 are used directly. Manufacturers certificationof cell constant traceability by this means is an acceptable alternative.4.3 To determine the cell constant of a high purity conduc

20、tivity cell with an instrument which does not accurately cover therange from pure water to 150 S/cm with a single cell constant, a secondary standard cell is used that has an intermediate cellconstant with precise value determined by Test Methods D1125. That secondary standard cell is then used in l

21、ow conductivitywater (not a standard) and readings are compared with those of the low constant cell under test. In this manner, the cell constantof the latter is determined. Manufacturers certification of cell constant traceability by this means is an acceptable alternative.5. Significance and Use5.

22、1 Conductivity measurements are typically made on samples of moderate to high ionic strength where contamination of opensamples in routine laboratory handling is negligible. Under those conditions, standard temperature compensation using coefficientsof 1 to 3 % of reading per degree Celsius over wid

23、e concentration ranges is appropriate. In contrast, this test method requiresspecial considerations to reduce trace contamination and accommodates the high and variable temperature coefficients of purewater samples that can range as high as 7 % of reading per degree Celsius. In addition, measuring i

24、nstrument design performancemust be proven under high purity conditions.5.2 This test method is applicable for detecting trace amounts of ionic contaminants in water. It is the primary means ofmonitoring the performance of demineralization and other high purity water treatment operations. It is also

25、 used to detect ioniccontamination in boiler waters, microelectronics rinse waters, pharmaceutical process waters, etc., as well as to monitor and controlthe level of boiler and power plant cycle chemistry treatment chemicals. This test method supplements the basic measurementrequirements for Test M

26、ethods D1125, D2186, and D4519.5.3 At very low levels of alkaline contamination, for example, 01 g/L NaOH, conductivity is suppressed, and can actuallybe slightly below the theoretical value for pure water. (11 and 2,2)4 Alkaline materials suppress the highly conductive hydrogenion concentration whi

27、le replacing it with less conductive sodium and hydroxide ions. This phenomenon is not an interference withconductivity or resistivity measurement itself but could give misleading indications of inferred water purity in this range if it isnot recognized.6. Interferences6.1 Exposure of the sample to

28、the atmosphere may cause changes in conductivity/resistivity due to loss or gain of dissolvedionizable gases. Carbon dioxide, normally present in the air, can reach an equilibrium concentration in water of about 1 mg/L andadd approximately 1 S/cm to the conductivity due to formation of carbonic acid

29、. Closed flow-through or sealed in-line cellinstallation is required for this reason.6.2 Power plant installations utilizing long sample lines can experience significant sampling problems. New sample linesnormally require longterm conditioning. Iron oxides and other deposits accumulate in slow flowi

30、ng horizontal sample lines andcan develop chromatograph-like retention of ionic species, resulting in very long delay times. Precautions are described in Section9.6.3 Cell and flow chamber surfaces will slowly leach trace ionic contaminants, evidenced by increasing conductivity readingswith very low

31、 or zero flowrate. There must be sufficient flow to keep these contaminants from accumulating to the point that theyaffect the measurement. The high and convoluted surface area of platinized cells precludes their use for high purity measurementsfor this reason.6.4 Capacitance of the cell and extensi

The measuring instrument must be designed to accommodate cell and4 The boldface numbers in parentheses refer to a list of references at the end of this sta

In addition, the instrument manufacturersrecommendations on cell leadwire must be carefully followed.6.5 Conductivity and resistivity measurements are referenced to 25C. Either samples must be controlled

35、upysample volume within the cell, causing low conductivity (high resistivity) readings. This problem is typical in makeup watertreatment systems where water warms up, drops in pressure, and is acidified by cation exchange operations. This releases dissolvedair and converts carbonates to carbon dioxi

36、de gas.6.7 High purity conductivity measurement must not be made on a sample downstream of pH sensors since they invariablycontaminate the sample with traces of reference electrolyte salts. Use a dedicated sample line or place the conductivity cellupstream from the pH sensors.6.8 Conductivity cells

37、mounted downstream from ion exchangers are vulnerable to catching resin particles between the cellelectrodes. Resin particles are sufficiently conductive to short the cell and cause high off-scale conductivity or extremely lowresistivity readings. Resin retainers must be effective and cells must be

38、accessible for cleaning. Cell designs with electrode spacinggreater than 0.06 in. (1.5 mm) 1.5 mm have been found to be less likely to trap such particles.6.9 Conductivity cells, if subjected to demineralizer regeneration reagents, would require excessive rinse time to obtainsatisfactory results. Th

Apparatus7.1 Measuring Instrument:7.1.1 The instrument shall be continuously reading in either conductivity or resistivity units. It shall be specifically designed tomeasure in high purity ranges, measuring with ac alter

40、nating current (ac) of appropriate voltage, frequency, wave shape, phasecorrection, and wave sampling technique to minimize errors due to parallel and series capacitance of cell and leadwire as well asminimizing electrode polarization errors and effects of small direct current (dc) potentials. A cel

41、l simulation technique to verifythe performance of an unproven measuring circuit design under high purity conditions is provided in Annex A1.7.1.2 The measurement shall include algorithms to temperature compensate conductivity or resistivity values to 25.0C. Thealgorithm shall compensate for changes

42、 in water ionization as well as for solute ion mobility for neutral salt contaminants. Theconductivity of pure water has been documented with high accuracy (33-5,4).7.1.3 In the case of samples containing acidic or basic solutes (such as power plant treatment using ammonia, morpholine, etc.,or acidi

43、c cation conductivity samples or microelectronics acid etch rinse monitoring), special algorithms shall be employed thataccount for the interaction of acids and bases with the ionization of water (56-8, 6, 7). The user is cautioned that accuracy oftemperature compensation algorithms for these solute

44、s may vary significantly. The user must determine the applicability andaccuracy for a particular sample in the anticipated temperature range. Fig. 1 illustrates the variation in temperature effects onconductivity representative of neutral salts, ammonia, morpholine, and acids. Where specialized high

45、 purity temperaturecompensation algorithms are not provided to accurately compensate for these effects, sample temperature shall be controlled to25.0625.060.2C. (Note that conductivity temperature coefficients exceed 7 % of reading per degree Celsius in the temperaturerange of 0 to 10C.)7.1.4 Output

46、 signal(s) from the instrument, if provided, shall be electrically isolated from the cell and from the earth groundto prevent ground loop problems when the instrument is connected to grounded external devices.7.2 Cell:7.2.1 Flow-through or in-line conductivity/resistivity cells shall be used to prev

47、ent contamination from the atmosphere andwetted surfaces as described in 6.1 and 6.3. Flowrates shall be maintained within the manufacturers recommendations. The cellshall retain its constant calibration under the conditions of flowrate, temperature, and pressure of the installation. The cell shalli

48、ncorporate an integral precision temperature sensor to ensure that it accurately senses the sample temperature where theconductivity/resistivity is being detected to ensure accurate temperature compensation.7.2.2 The cell for high purity water measurements shall not be used for measuring higher ioni

49、c content samples (greater than20 S/cm, less than 0.05 Mohm-cm) since it would retain ionic contaminants and require excessive rinse-down time for validmeasurements in high purity ranges. A high purity cell in a demineralizer system shall not be located where it can be exposed toregeneration reagents.7.2.3 Electrodes of the cell shall not be platinized for pure water measurements since the microscopically rough, porous surfacewould retain ionic contaminants and produce excessive downscale response times.
