15、mpletion of the reaction is detected with a platinum sensing electrode. The coulombs of electricityrequired to generate the necessary amount of iodine then is converted into the amount of water present in the test specimen by useof the Faraday equation.3.3 Titration CellThe coulometric titration cel
16、l consists of either a sealed vessel containing both an anode and cathode whichare separated by a diaphragm or a sealed vessel containing an anode and cathode which are not separated by a diaphragm. In bothcells the anode compartment contains a solution consisting of sulfur dioxide, iodide, and an a
17、mine in a solvent containingmethanol/chloroform or methanol/longer chain alcohol. In the cell with a diaphragm the cathode compartment contains similarreagents optimized for cathodic reduction.4. Significance and Use4.1 Electrical characteristics of an insulating liquid may be affected deleteriously
18、 by excessive water content. A high watercontent may make a dielectric liquid unsuitable for some electrical applications due to deterioration of properties such as thedielectric breakdown voltage.4.2 These tests are suitable for use in acceptance specifications, in control of processing, and in eva
19、luating the condition ofdielectric liquids in service.5. Interferences5.1 Compounds such as aldehydes, ketones, free halogens, most acids, and oxidizing or reducing agents may interfere withcoulometric Karl Fischer titrators. If a drifting end point is noted, an alternative solvent system or another
20、 titration method iswarranted. If this drifting end point cannot be corrected, the water values should be regarded as suspect. A detailed discussion ofinterfering substances can be found in the treatise on aquametry.55.2 Studies have shown that the water content of an insulating liquid sample may be
21、 influenced significantly by the samplecontainer.6 A sample may either gain or lose water on storage in a glass container depending upon the initial water content of thesample, the manner in which the container is cleaned and dried, and the length of storage time before analysis. In addition, sample
22、bottles should not be dried at temperature in excess of 110C and should be rinsed with the liquid being tested prior to taking thetest specimen.5.3 Erroneous low readings may be obtained if previous spent oil test specimens are not removed from the solvent system ona routine basis. Excess oil may no
23、t mix thoroughly with the solvent system thus preventing the total water content of that testspecimen from being measured properly. Stirring should be at such a rate that an oil layer will not form on top of the reagent. Ifsuch an oil layer does form while at the instruments maximum stirrer speed, s
24、top testing and remove the oil layer. If accurate resultscan not be obtained, the solution should be discarded.5.4 Upon setting up of the titration vessel and solvent system, the walls of the titration vessel should be wetted by swirling thesolvent system solution around in the vessel.6. Apparatus6.

26、rodesThis electrode pair performs the cathodic reduction of iodide, which allows the Karl Fischerreaction to take place. It may consist of two platinum meshes or wires separated by a diaphragm within a glass assembly or twoplatinum meshes or wires not separated by a diaphragm.6.2 Titration FlaskThe

A bottomdrain cock is desirable but not necessary for removing reagents.6.3 StirrersMeans for agitation during titration will consist of a magnetic stirrer with a glass or TFE-fluorocarbon-coveredstirrin

36、e water-saturated alcohol can be prepared by adding deionized water to the alcohol (ACS reagent grade) at 25C suchthat the final mixture consists of a two-phase system in which the lower water phase is at least 2 cm high. Initially, this solutionshould be mixed thoroughly and allowed to stand at roo
37、m temperature for at least three days to achieve complete equilibration.NOTE 1For the best accuracy the solution should not be mixed or shaken after standing. Remove the sample aliquot from the top phase and injectit immediately into the titration cell. The degree of saturation of the water-saturate
38、d 1-Octanol varies 1 % between 10 and 30C.7.3.3 The response of the instrument shall be verified with 1 to 2 L of water; this can give a response value of 1000 to 2000g within the specified precision of the instrument.8. Safety Precautions8.1 Pyridine was the organic amine that was traditionally use
39、d in Karl Fischer reagents; however, pyridine-free formulations arenow available commercially. Pyridine-free reagents titrate faster and are less toxic, less odorous, and more stable than pyridinetypes. The reagents may contain potentially hazardous chemicals, such as iodine, pyridine, sulfur dioxid
40、e, methanol, chloroform,chlorinated hydrocarbons, or other organic materials. Wear chemical resistant gloves when mixing the reagents and removingsolution from the titration chamber. Care must be exercised to avoid unnecessary inhalation of reagent vapors or direct contact ofthe reagents with the sk
41、in or eyes. Following accidental spillage, flush the affected area with copious amounts of water.NOTE 2Carefully read and follow manufacturers instructions and Material Safety Data Sheet when using commercially available reagent systems.9. Sampling9.1 The preferred method for sampling insulating liq
42、uids is Practice D3613; however, Practices D923 also are suitable. . If thetest specimen is cloudy or contains free water, it may be difficult to obtain a representative specimen.10.
