The more frequently measurements are taken,the better is the resolution of the curve from which thecorrosion rate is derived.4.1.1 The electrical resistance of the metal elements beingmeasured is very low (typically 2 to 10 m). Consequently,special measurement techniques and cables

Its particular advantage is its speed of response tocorrosion rate upsets. On a corroding electrode subject tocertain qualifications (see 12.1),

Significance and Use5.1 General corrosion is characterized by areas of greater orlesser attack, throughout the plant, at a particular location, oreven on a particul

43、ar probe. Therefore, the estimation ofcorrosion rate as with mass loss coupons involves an averagingacross the surface of the probe. Allowance must be made forthe fact that areas of greater or lesser penetration usually existon the surface. Visual inspection of the probe element, coupon,or electrode

44、 is required to determine the degree of interferencein the measurement caused by such variability. This variabilityis less critical where relative changes in corrosion rate are to bedetected.5.2 Both electrical test methods described in this guideprovide a technique for determining corrosion rates w

46、n create corrosive conditions. Anearly warning of corrosive attack can permit remedial actionbefore significant damage occurs to process equipment.5.5 These techniques are also useful where inhibitor addi-tions are used to control the corrosion of equipment. Theindication of an increasing corrosion

47、rate can be used to signalthe need for additional inhibitor.5.6 Control of corrosion in process equipment requires aknowledge of the rate of attack on an ongoing basis. These testmethods can be used to provide such information in digitalformat easily transferred to computers for analysis.TEST METHOD

48、 AELECTRICAL RESISTANCE(1-6)46. Limitations and Interferences6.1 Results are representative for average metal loss on theprobe element. On wire-form measuring elements, pitting maybe indicated by rapid increases in metal loss reading after 50 %of probe life is passed. The larger cylindrical measurin

49、gelements are much less sensitive to the effect of pitting attack.Where pitting is the only form of attack, probes may yieldunreliable results.6.2 It should be recognized that the thermal noise andstress-induced noise on probe elements, and electrical noise onthese systems, occur in varying degrees due to the process andlocal environment. Care should be exercised in the choice ofthe system to minimize these effects. Electrical noise can beminimized by use of correct cabling, and careful location ofequipment and cable runs (where applicable)
