Key Features

  • Hard-to-reach and on-the-spot measurements can be carried out using the tubes, pump and accessories
  • Obtain measurements within 10 seconds to 15 minutes (depending on the type of tube)
  • Pre-entry checks, confined space entry, variations in concentration levels in the workplace and contamination of breathing zones are possible applications which may use tubes
Specification
Application Range  
Standard Measuring Range:

0.1 to 1 ppm

Discoloration compared to color standard.

Number of Strokes n: 20
Time for Measurement: approx. 5 min
Standard Deviation: ± 50 %
Color Change: yellow --> pink
   
Ambient Operating Conditions  
Temperature: 0 to 30 °C
Absolute Humidity: < 30 mg H2O / L
   
Reaction Principle  
a) Ni(CO)4 + I2 --> NiI2 + 4 CO
b) NiI2 + Dimethylglyoxime --> pink colored complex
 
Cross Sensitivity
Iron pentacarbonyl is also indicated by a brownish discoloration, however, with less sensitivity. Measurement of nickel tetra carbonyl is not possible in the presence of hydrogen sulfide of sulfur dioxide, since the reading is suppressed. Such a disturbance can be recognised by decoloration of the indicating layer even before the reagent ampoule is opened.
 
Additional Information
After performing the required 20 pump strokes the reagent ampoule must be broken and the liquid carefully drawn onto the indicating layer using the pump.
