12、ent reference electrodes(1) (PREs) have been used for many years to monitor buried structures susceptible to corrosive elements. These Cu/CuSO4PREs vary in both design and construction.

The standard should be used by Cu/CuSO4 PRE users for specifying minimum acceptance criteria or for identifying products that may provide a longer service life.

20、n 1: General 1.1 This standard describes a test method to measure specific physical properties and the relative stability of Cu/CuSO4PREs when they are subjected to specific environmental stresses. These reference HOHFWURGHVZKLOHSHUPDQHQWLQWKHSKVLFDOVHQVH(they are not commonly removed), do exhibit a

21、 finite service life. This test method is intended to provide a measure of the relative durability that may be expected. The test method specifically focuses on the ability of the Cu/CuSO4PRE to (1) resist migration of CuSO4from within the PRE into its surrounding environment and (2) to resist the m

22、igration of chloride from its surrounding environment into the PRE. 1.2 Unique field conditions may alter the durability of Cu/CuSO4PREs. Factors such as temperature, sunlight, and soil contaminants can significantly affect PRE durability. Although consideration of these parameters is outside the sc

23、ope of this standard, they may require consideration in certain field applications. 1.3 Environmental factors must be accounted for while performing durability testing. Articles have been written indicating possible factors resulting in erroneous potential measurements from a half-cell and their rel

24、evance to PREs.1,2Variables that usually affect portable Cu/CuSO4reference electrodes are temperature and sunlight variations. Both cited articles indicate that potential measurements can vary by 0.9 mV/C (0.5 mV/F), and that exposure to direct sunlight can cause variations in potential up to +20 mV

25、. However, because PREs are typically used in locations with no direct sunlight exposure and limited temperature variations, such effects should be minimal.1Another environmental factor that can cause a change in potential is chloride contamination. This is generally only a problem with prolonged ex

26、posure to chloride-rich environments (e.g., seawater, brackish water, or chloride-rich soil). As the chloride contamination increases, the potential shifts further away from its reference potential (potential with no chlorides present) and can reach a value of 123 mV in a 60,000 ppm chloride solutio

27、n.2The chloride variations have been confirmed to some degree through laboratory testing.3All of these factors must be considered when Cu/CuSO4PRE durability tests are performed. 1.4 Long-term failure of PREs has been attributed to a dried-out PRE, which is a particular problem in dry soils. Consequ

28、ently, PREs are often installed prepotted in a moisture-retaining backfill. The tendency for PREs to dry out is not addressed by this test method. 1.5 The natural tendency for the potential of a Cu/CuSO4 PRE to vary must also be considered. Some of this variation may occur as a result of the age of

29、the PRE and/or differences in manufacturing. As a result, PREs are listed as being repeatable to r6 mV.4 1.6 The tests described herein are relative tests that should only be used to compare PREs that are tested concurrently. Users should not attempt to draw meaningful conclusions from the results o

30、f tests performed at different times because the variations may be the result of uncontrolled differences between the two tests rather than the differences in the PREs themselves. The tests are intended to provide comparative data on Cu/CuSO4PREs tested concurrently; therefore, no pass/fail criteria

31、 are established by this standard. 1.7 The tests described herein are relatively short in duration and there are insufficient data to show a correlation between proper short-duration tests and expected service life. However, it would be reasonable to conclude that if one PRE lasts longer than anothe

32、r in these tests, similar relative durability could be expected in actual applications. _ Section 2: Test Equipment and Reagents 2.1 High-LPSHGDQFHYROWPHWHURUGDWDORJJLQJGHYLFH DPLQLPXPLQSXWLPS HGDQFHRI0 XQOHVVLWFDQEHVKRZQWKDWDmeter with lower input impedance is sufficient) as required to ensure accu

One way to determine accuracy is to measure several new or rehabilitated portable Cu/CuSO4r

Analytical-grade chemicals shall be used when construct

36、ing a standard electrode. The standard electrode shall be checked against a new or rehabilitated portable Cu/CuSO4reference electrode to confirm less than 5 mV deviation. 2.4 Reagent-grade sodium chloride (NaCl); 2.5 Temperature-monitoring device capable of reading 1 C (or 2 F) 2.6 Resistivity meter

39、nt chloride ions leach into the test PRE. 3.1.1 PREs shall be tested in the configuration in which they are used. Plastic bags or other shipping materials shall be removed prior to testing in accordance witKPDQXIDFWXUHUVLQVWUXFWLRQV 3.1.2 If a PRE is normally installed in a bag containing backfill,

40、it shall not be removed from the bag without consulting the manufacturer. Removing the PRE can affect its performance and, in some cases, permanently damage the PRE. 3.2 Visual Examination 3.2.1 A visual examination shall be performed on each test PRE. 3.2.2 The condition of the test PRE prior to te

42、 3.3.1.1 Each test PRE shall be placed in a separate nonmetallic 19 L (5.0 gal) test container of DI water in accordance with ASTM D1193, Type IV requirements.
