Dry the sensormembrane to remove all sample water which may containDO3.Allow the sensor to equilibrate with the air temperature to62C. If there is a large temperature diff

Equivalence of zero is considered to be 0.005D7677 163mg/L (ppm) in most commercial instruments. Some polaro-graphic sensors have an intrinsic zer

Follow the sensor manufacturers recommenda-tions.11.2 Two methods are used for span calibration of polaro-graphic ozone sensors: in-line calibration using a colorimetricreference and air calibration.11.2.1 Colorimetric Calibration of SpanEither of thereagent s
7、ystems noted in 8.3 can be used as the reference forspan calibration. The IOA has approved the indigo method.3With the sensor inline and reading stable DO3values, collect asample of water representative of the water the sensor ismeasuring. This can be from a port near an inserted sensor oron the out
8、let of the sensor flow housing drain. In either case,the sample must flow gently, without spray or turbulence thatcould de-gas the sample. Sample the water using three aliquotsor ampoules, simultaneously noting the reading on the on-lineinstrument. Measure all three grab samples. Discard an outlieri

Calculate the averageand input the value as the on-line instrument span calibrationaccording to manufacturers instructions.11.2.2 Air
10、 Calibration of Span (suitable for instruments soequipped)Since oxygen and ozone are similar in their per-meation rates through the sensor membrane, the rate ofpermeation of a known oxygen quantity can be equated to anozone calibration value. Single point air calibration can be ameans to calibrate s
11、pan in a DO3instrument with this capabil-ity. Remove the sensor from the line and place it in a locationknown to be free of ozone gas. Be sure the outer surface of thesensor membrane is dry and free of sample water, which maycontain DO3. Allow the sensor to equilibrate with the airtemperature within
12、 62C. If there is a large temperaturedifference between the air and the sensor, for example, 5C,this may take over an hour. Enter the air calibration mode in theanalyzer electronics which temporarily changes the polariza-tion potential applied to the cathode and changes the responseto oxygen (O2) pa
13、rtial pressure. Determination of the O2partialpressure of air is determined from the barometric pressure andtemperature of the air. Allow at least 10 minutes for the sensorto stabilize and then perform the calibration function accordingto the manufacturers instructions. Return to the ozone mea-surem
14、ent mode of the instrument and allow the extendedperiod of time required for the sensor to repolarize and stabilizeon ozone measurement per manufacturers recommendations.11.3 Calibration VerificationSpan and zero verificationare normally required.11.3.1 Colorimetric Verification of SpanWith the sens

The DO3value forverifying the span should be 70 % of the target processcon
16、trol limit DO3value. System DO3values for verificationmay be higher than the target control limit. Sample andmeasure the ozone concentration of the water the same as forcalibration in 11.1. Compare the average of the three values tothe reading of the instrument. If they differ by 0.015 mg/L(0.02 mg/

18、free ofozone gas. Dry the sensor membrane to remove sample waterwhich may contain DO3. Allow the sensor to equilibrate withthe air temperature within 62C. If there is a large temperaturedifference between the air and the process, for example, 5C,this may take over an hour. To check the air calibrati

Allow at least10 minutes for equilibration and record the % last calibrationvalue. If % last calibration value is not available then record %ideal value or absolute air value. Compa
20、re to % ideal orabsolute air value when calibrated. If the two agree within thequality limits set (typically 65 to 15 %), the sensor span hasbeen verified. Restore the instrument to the ozone measure-ment mode and allow the manufacturers extended repolariza-tion time before ozone measurements are us

Dry the sensormembrane to remove all sample water, which may containDO3. Allow the sensor to equilibrate with the air temperaturewithin
22、62C. If there is a large temperature difference betweenthe air and the process, for example, 5C, this may take overan hour. The sensor must read zero or the equivalence of zero(0.005 mg/L, in most commercial instruments). Otherwise azero calibration is required.12. Procedure12.1 The normal operation
23、 of the analyzer is automatic afterconfiguration by the user and does not require user interventionfor routine analysis.12.2 Based on calibration verification results showing anincreasing drift rate, it is necessary to replace the electrolyte ormembrane or both. With some sensors a cleaning process
24、isalso required. If using manufacturer-recommended materialsfor sensor cleaning, observe all safety precautions whenhandling those materials.13. Quality Control13.1 Instrument and sensor verification and calibration mustbe performed according to the manufacturers instructions forboth the continuous
25、measuring equipment and the colorimetricstandard, if used.13.2 Verification FrequencyCalibration verificationshould be checked on a periodic basis. Verification frequency isdetermined based on risk of sensor drift or failure. Factors thatcontribute to sensor drift and failure are (1) continuous high
26、levels of ozone exposure (in accordance with manufacturer3International Ozone Association Revised guideline document, “ColorimetricMethod for Manual Determination of Ozone Concentration in Water,” OzoneScience and Engineering, Vol 20.6, 1998, p. 443.D7677 164specifications), (2) membrane wear due to
27、 excessive flow rates,pressure fluctuations, or abrasive water action, and (3) electro-lyte depletion. Verification should be performed at least everytwo months or according to manufacturers recommendations.13.3 Calibration FrequencyCalibration must be per-formed at least as frequently as the manufa
28、cturers scheduleand instructions and whenever a sensor is returned to serviceafter maintenance. Sensors must be allowed to fully polarizeand reach stability before calibration after maintenance.Minimally, calibration should be performed semi-annually.13.4 Where the verification and calibration of oz
29、one sensorsdepend on a colorimetric method as the standard, at least threecolorimetric samples and measurements must always be madeas outlined in 11.2.1 and 11.3.1.14.

This inability to obtain precisionand bias data for continuous determinations is recognized andstated in the scope of Practice D2777.14.2 The ephemeral nature of ozone makes it impossible toprovide s
31、table ozone standards for comparisons.14.3 Accuracy of ozone measurements by this method areprimarily limited by the reference method to which they arecalibrated.14.3.1 Some colorimetric methods to measure ozone usinggood technique have been found to give repeatability on theorder of 60.02 mg/L in t
32、he range of 0.05 to 0.50 mg/L.414.3.2 Air span calibration, in instruments so equipped, hasbeen found to give repeatability of 65 %, that is, 0.0025 mg/Lat an ozone concentration of 0.05 mg/L.15.

33、datory Information)X1. POLAROGRAPHIC OZONE SENSOR OPERATIONX1.1 The typical polarographic ozone sensor consists of atleast two electrodes. Minimally there is an anode and cathodeand sometimes a third electrode known as a guard ringelectrode. The sensor also includes a temperature sensor forcompensat
34、ion of the ozone measurement. The electrodes arecovered by a gas permeable membrane and submersed inelectrolyte typically containing a bromide salt dissolved inwater. The cathode is set to a potential suitable for thereduction of molecular ozone to hydroxide ion and oxygen.The change in chemical spe
35、cies results in an amperometricdraw at the cathode and this draw is directly related to thepartial pressure of ozone contacting the cathode. The partialpressure at the cathode is, in turn, proportional to the ozonepartial pressure in the sample. The relationship betweenchemistry and electrical curre
36、nt can be described by thefollowing pair of redox reactions.Cathode Reduction: H2O+O3+2e- O2+2OH-Anode Oxidation: Ag+2Br- 2 AgBr + 2 e-Overall Reaction: H2O+2Ag+2Br-+O3 2 AgBr + O2+2OH-The permeation rate of ozone through the membrane is thelimiting factor for how much ozone from the liquid makes it
37、sway to the cathode. Variation in membrane permeation rateresults in the need for calibration. Once the membrane perme-ation rate is normalized by calibration, the partial pressurevalue can be converted to dissolved ozone concentration. Themeasuring system compensates for the temperature depen-dence
