17、besA given volume of air(specified by the manufacturer) is pulled through the tube by apump in a time period on the order of 1 to 10 min. Thelength-of-stain is related to the amount of air sampled and thehydrogen sulfide concentration during the sample period.4.1.2 Long-Term Detector TubesThe air sa

18、mple is pulledthrough the tube at a slower, constant flow rate (specified bythe manufacturer) by an electrical pump over a 1- to 8-h timeperiod. The length of color change and the sampling time areused to estimate the time weighted average (TWA) concentra-tion of hydrogen sulfide.4.1.3 Length-of-Sta

19、in Dosimeter TubesThis detector typesamples the atmosphere to be tested by diffusion; no pump isrequired. Sampling times are on the order of 1 to 8 h and thestain length as a function of sampling time is related to theTWA concentration of hydrogen sulfide.4.2 Information on the correct use of detect

20、or tubes andlength-of-stain dosimeters is presented.5. Significance and Use5.1 GeneralHydrogen sulfide is nearly ubiquitous. It oc-curs naturally in volcanic gases, in sulfur springs andfumaroles, in decaying of plant and animal protein, and inintestines as a result of bacterial action. Hydrogen sul

21、fide is aserious hazard to the health of workers employed in energyproduction from hydrocarbon or geothermal sources, in theproduction of fibers and sheets from viscose syrup, in theproduction of deuterium oxide (heavy water), in tanneries,sewers, sewage treatment and animal waste disposal, in workb

22、elow ground, on fishing boats, and in chemical operations,including the gas and oil industry.5.2 In 29 CFR 1910.1000, the Federal Occupational Safetyand Health Administration designates that worker exposure tocertain gases and vapors must not be exceeded in workplaceatmospheres at concentrations abo

23、ve specific values, averagedover a certain time span. Hydrogen sulfide is included in thislist. Refer also to NIOSH Criteria for a RecommendedStandard, Occupational Exposure to Hydrogen Sulfide.5.3 This practice will provide means for the determinationof airborne concentrations of hydrogen sulfide.5

24、.4 This practice provides means for either personal or areasampling and for short-term or time-weighted average (TWA)measurements. Refer to Threshold Limit Values for ChemicalSubstances in the Work Environment.6. Detector Tubes, Short-Term (1, 4-9)6.1 GeneralShort-term detector tubes are used for gr

25、ab-sampling. They allow determination of hydrogen sulfide con-centrations in approximately five min.6.2 Apparatus:6.2.1 Detector tubes for the detection of hydrogen sulfideand an appropriate pump are required. Because manufacturershave different tubes for different measurement ranges ofhydrogen sulf

26、ide, an estimate of the expected hydrogen sulfideconcentration is helpful. Detector tubes made by one manufac-turer must not be used with pumps made by a differentmanufacturer (10).6.2.2 The Safety Equipment Institute (SEI) has a voluntarycertification program for short-term detector tubes for hydro

27、-gen sulfide. This program consists of independent laboratoryverification of sampling pump precision and of detector tubeperformance. The pump and tube units certified under thisprogram are listed in the SEI Approved Equipment List. Thecertification test protocol is similar to that used in the nowdi

28、scontinued NIOSH Certification Program (11-13).6.2.3 In some sampling situations, particularly when testingfor hazardous hydrogen sulfide concentrations in confinedspaces, a remote sampling line and adapter can be used. Thisallows placement of the detector tube in the potentiallyhazardous area to be

29、 tested while the operator is in a safer area.6.3 Procedure:6.3.1 Carefully follow the instruction sheet of the manufac-turer for the proper use of hydrogen sulfide short-term detectortubes (see Practice D4490).6.3.1.1 Check the pump for leaks, total volume, and flowrate in accordance with the instr

30、uction manual for the pump.Also check the sampling line for leaks (if used).6.3.1.2 Remove one detector tube from the box and breakoff both tips.6.3.1.3 Insert the detector tube into the tube holder of thepump or onto the sample line, making sure that it is properlyoriented.6.3.1.4 Face the mounted

31、detector tube into the atmosphereto be tested. Sample an appropriate volume of air by pulling thepump handle out the required number of strokes, if using apiston pump, or squeezing the pump the proper number oftimes, if using a bellows-type or bulb-type pump.6.3.1.5 If hydrogen sulfide is present, t

32、he indicator chemicalin the tube will change color from white to brown or gray. Thelength of stain, correlated with the volume of air sampled, willindicate the concentration. Most detector tubes now have directreading concentration scales printed on the tube.6.3.1.6 For the most reliable estimate of

33、 the hydrogensulfide concentration, the maximum number of pump strokes(as specified by the manufacturer) should be taken so that thestained length is between 20 and 80 % of the total indicatingchemical length. At very low or very high concentrations, thisis not always possible.6.4 InterferencesWhen

34、using lead salts as the impregnant,sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, and mercaptans can interferewith accurate measurements, particularly at low hydrogensulfide concentrations. Sulfur dioxide, if present at comparableconcentrations to hydrogen sulfide, will give a positiveinterference, that is, will

35、 increase the length of stain; however,sulfur dioxide by itself will cause no stain. Mercaptans at ornear their TLV levels will not interfere, but at high concentra-tions (more than 100 ppm) they can give a positive interfer-ence. Nitrogen dioxide, at concentrations near its TLV, gives aslight negat

36、ive error. The effect of these interferences isminimal when silver cyanide, copper, or mercury compoundsare used as the impregnant.6.5 The accuracy of detector tubes from two manufacturerswas tested over a temperature range of 4C 40F to 49C120F and over a relative humidity range of 20 % to 90 %D4913

37、 00 (2016)2(14). The accuracy of these hydrogen sulfide detector tubes wasreduced only at high temperatures (one manufacturer).6.6 Measurement RangeHydrogen sulfide tubes are avail-able to measure concentrations from 0.5 to 70 000 ppm.6.7 AccuracySEI certified detector tubes must have anaccuracy (pr

38、ecision plus bias) of 625 % of the actual concen-tration or better for hydrogen sulfide concentrations from 10 to50 ppm. At 5 ppm the accuracy must be better than 635 %. Atconcentrations higher than 50 ppm, a minimum accuracy is notspecified in the SEI requirements, but is typically better than625 %

39、. Manufacturers of non-SEI certified hydrogen sulfidedetector tubes typically claim accuracies of better than 25 to35 %.6.8 ReagentsThe reagent system used to detect the pres-ence of hydrogen sulfide is either lead acetate, a mercurycomplex, a copper salt, or silver cyanide. These salts areimpregnat

40、ed on either granular alumina or silica gel.7. Detector Tubes, Long-Term (2, 15, 16)7.1 GeneralLong-term sampling equipment detects andmeasures hydrogen sulfide over an entire work shift (orfraction thereof) without the need for time consuming labora-tory analysis. This system measures a time-weight

41、ed-average(TWA) concentration.7.2 ApparatusDetector tubes for detecting hydrogen sul-fide and an electrical pump for pulling the sample through thetube at a low rate, such as 5 to 20 mL/min.7.3 Procedure:7.3.1 Carefully follow the instruction sheet of the manufac-turer for the proper use of hydrogen

42、 sulfide long-term tubes.7.3.1.1 Check the pump for proper flow rate or volume perpump stroke in accordance with the instruction manual for thepump.7.3.1.2 Remove one detector tube from the box and breakoff both tips.7.3.1.3 Insert the tube into the tube holder, making sure it isproperly oriented.7.

43、3.1.4 If necessary, connect the tube holder to the pump.With some systems, the tube is connected directly to the pumpwithout the use of a tube holder.7.3.1.5 Set the pump to the proper flow rate and turn it on.Record the starting time. For accurate work, the flow rate of thepump should be calibrated

44、 under actual use conditions. Referto appropriate Annex of Practice D3686.7.3.1.6 Continue sampling for the length of time desired,within the ppm-h capability of the tube. Record the time at theend of sampling.7.3.1.7 If hydrogen sulfide is present, a brownish staindevelops in the detector chemical.

45、 To determine theconcentration, either read the ppm-h directly from the tube anddivide by the sampling time (h) or refer to a calibration graph,finding the point of intersection of the stain length and thesampling time and read from the graph the correspondingconcentration.7.4 InterferencesThe inter

46、ferences are the same as forshort-term hydrogen sulfide tubes (see 6.4).7.5 Temperature and relative humidity have little effect as inthe case of short-term detector tubes.7.6 Measurement range 0.5 to 100 ppm.7.7 AccuracyTypical accuracy (precision plus bias) forlong-term detector tubes is better th

47、an 625 % of the actualconcentration (16).7.8 Reagents same as short-term tubes (see 6.8).8. Length-of-Stain Dosimeters (3, 17, 18)8.1 GeneralHydrogen sulfide length-of-stain dosimetersmeasure TWA concentrations. They operate by diffusion and,therefore, require no auxiliary equipment. They detect and

48、measure hydrogen sulfide over periods from 0.5 to 8.0 h (orlonger) without the need for laboratory analysis.8.2 ApparatusAll that is required is a hydrogen sulfidelength-of-stain dosimeter and the dosimeter holder supplied bythe manufacturer. Dosimeters and holders supplied by differentmanufacturers

49、 should not be interchanged.8.3 Procedure:8.3.1 Carefully follow the instruction sheet of the manufac-turer for the proper use of hydrogen sulfide length-of-staindosimeter tubes (see Practice D4599).8.3.1.1 The dosimeter is opened at one end to allow diffu-sion of the gas into the tube.8.3.1.2 The tube is mounted into a tube holder, which can beclipped onto a collar or pocket for personal monitoring, or ontoa stationary object for area monitoring.8.3.1.3 The chemically impregnated paper or gel within thetube changes color from white to brownish if hydroge
