Gas analysis - Preparation of calibration gas mixtures using dynamic volumetric methods - Part 4: Continuous syringe injection method (ISO 6145-4:2004)

ISO 6145-4:2004 specifies a method for continuous production of calibration gas mixtures, containing two or more components, from pure gases or other gas mixtures by continuous injection of the calibration component(s) into a complementary gas stream by means of a syringe.
If pre-mixed gases are used instead of pure gases (see Annex A), much lower volume fractions can be obtained. The volume flow rates, from which the volume fractions are determined, can be calculated from the individual flow rates and can be independently measured by a suitable method given in ISO 6145-1.
The merits of the method are that a substantial quantity of the gas mixture can be prepared on a continuous basis and that multi-component mixtures can be prepared almost as readily as binary mixtures if the appropriate number of syringes is utilized, or if the syringe already contains a multi-component mixture of known composition. This method also provides a convenient means for increasing the volume fraction of the calibration component in the mixture in small steps. It is therefore a useful method for evaluation of other characteristics of gas analysers, such as minimum detection limit and dead zone, as well as accuracy. The relative expanded uncertainty in the volume fraction obtainable for a binary mixture (at a coverage factor of 2) is 5 % and the range of applicability is 10-5 to 10-2.

Gasanalyse - Herstellung von Kalibriergasgemischen mit Hilfe von dynamisch-volumetrischen Verfahren - Teil 4: Kontinuierliches Spritzen-Injektionsverfahren (ISO 6145-4:2004)

DDieser Teil der ISO 6145 legt ein Verfahren zur kontinuierlichen Herstellung von Kalibriergasgemischen mit zwei oder mehr Komponenten aus reinen Gasen oder anderen Gasgemischen durch kontinuierliche Injektion der Kalibrierkomponente(n) in einen Grundgasstrom mittels einer Spritze fest.
Wenn Vorgemische an Stelle von reinen Gasen verwendet werden (siehe Anhang A), so lassen sich viel niedrigere Volumenanteile erreichen. Die Volumenströme, aus denen die Volumenanteile bestimmt werden, können aus den einzelnen Durchflussgeschwindigkeiten berechnet werden, und sie können mit einem geeigneten Verfahren aus ISO 6145-1 unabhängig gemessen werden.
Die Vorteile des Verfahrens bestehen darin, dass eine substantielle Menge des Gasgemischs auf kontinuierlicher Basis hergestellt werden kann, und dass sich Multikomponenten-Gemische bei Verwendung einer entsprechenden Zahl von Spritzen oder, wenn die Spritze bereits ein Multikomponenten-Gemisch bekannter Zusammensetzung enthält, fast ebenso leicht herstellen lassen wie binäre Gemische. Dieses Verfahren stellt auch ein zweckdienliches Hilfsmittel dar, um den Volumenanteil der Kalibrierkomponente in dem Gemisch in kleinen Schritten zu erhöhen. Es ist daher ein nützliches Verfahren für die Ermittlung anderer Kenngrößen von Gasanalysatoren wie der unteren Nachweisgrenze und der Totzone sowie der Genauigkeit. Die relative erweiterte Unsicherheit des Volumenanteils, die sich bei einem binären Gemisch erreichen lässt, beträgt 5 % (bei einem Überdeckungsfaktor von 2), und der Anwendungsbereich ist 10–5 bis 10–2.

Analyse des gaz - Préparation des mélanges de gaz pour étalonnage à l'aide de méthodes volumétriques dynamiques - Partie 4: Méthode continue par seringue d'injection (ISO 6145-4:2004)

L'ISO 6145‑4:2004 décrit une méthode de production continue de mélanges de gaz pour étalonnage, contenant au moins deux constituants, à partir de gaz purs ou d'autres mélanges de gaz, par injection continue des constituants étalons dans un gaz de complément à l'aide d'une seringue.
Si des prémélanges de gaz sont utilisés à la place de gaz purs, des fractions volumiques plus petites peuvent être obtenues. Les débits volumiques, à partir desquels les fractions volumiques sont déterminées, peuvent être calculés à partir des débits individuels et mesurés de manière indépendante selon une méthode appropriée donnée dans l'ISO 6145-1.
La méthode a pour mérite de permettre la préparation d'une quantité significative de mélange de gaz en continu, et la préparation de mélanges à constituants multiples presque aussi aisément que les mélanges à base de deux constituants si un nombre approprié de seringues est utilisé ou si la seringue contient déjà un mélange à constituants multiples de composition connue. Cette méthode présente également un moyen pratique d'augmenter, étapes par étapes, la fraction volumique du constituant étalon dans le mélange. Il s'agit donc d'une méthode utile d'évaluation des autres caractéristiques des analyseurs de gaz, telles que la limite de détection minimale et la zone morte, ainsi que l'exactitude. L'incertitude relative élargie dans la fraction volumique qu'il est possible d'obtenir pour un mélange à base de deux constituants (selon un facteur d'élargissement de 2) est de 5 % et la plage d'applicabilité de 10-5 à 10-2.

ISO 6145-4:2004(E)
Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International
Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 6145-4 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 158, Analysis of gases.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 6145-4:1986), which has been technically
revised.
ISO 6145 consists of the following parts, under the general title Gas analysis — Preparation of calibration gas
