Measurement Range (mg/L) Standard Deviation (%) Temperature [°C] Parameters
B        C
0.5 to 5 25 5 to 12 0.0059 - 50
  25 13 to 25 0.0059 - 100

Evaluation of Measurement

Calculate 1,1,1-trichloroethane concentration:

Y[mg/L] = A • B • (X[ppm] + C)

Cross Sensitivity

Perchloroethylene, carbon tetrachloride, dichloromethane and trichloroethylene are indicated with lower sensitivity. Petroleum hydrocarbons are not indicated.

Specification
Application Range  
Standard Measuring Range: 50 to 600 ppm
Number of Strokes n: 2 + 3 desorption strokes in clean air
Time for Measurement: approx. 1.5 min
Standard Deviation: ± 10 to 15 %
Color Change: grey --> brown red
   
Ambient Operating Conditions  
Temperature: 15 to 40 °C
Absolute Humidity: 5 to 15 mg H2O / L
   
Reaction Principle  
a) 1,1,1-trichloroethane + IO3 –/H2S2O7 --> Cl2
b) Cl2+ o-tolidine --> brown red reaction product
 
Cross Sensitivity
Other chlorinated hydrocarbons are indicated, but with different sensitivities.
In the presence of aromatic hydrocarbons the indication is too low (e.g. 200 ppm 1,1,1-trichloroethane and 200 ppm toluene, the reading amounts to 1/4 only, i.e. 50 ppm).
