Gas analysis - Preparation of calibration gas mixtures using dynamic methods - Part 1: General aspects (ISO 6145-1:2019)

This document gives a brief overview of each of the dynamic techniques which are described in detail in the subsequent parts of ISO 6145. This document provides basic information to support an informed choice for one or another method for the preparation of calibration gas mixtures. It also describes how these methods can be linked to national measurement standards to establish metrological traceability for the composition of the prepared gas mixtures. Since all techniques are dynamic and rely on flow rates, this document describes the calibration process by measurement of each individual flow rate generated by the device. Methods are also provided for assessing the composition of the generated gas mixtures by comparison with an already validated calibration gas mixture. This document provides general requirements for the use and operation of dynamic methods for gas mixture preparation. It also includes the necessary expressions for calculating the calibration gas composition and its associated uncertainty. Gas mixtures obtained by these dynamic methods can be used to calibrate or control gas analysers. The storage of dynamically prepared gas mixtures into bags or cylinders is beyond the scope of this document.

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.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the

Introduction
This document is one of a series of standards which describes the various dynamic methods for the
preparation of calibration gas mixtures.
Several techniques are available and the choice between them is decided based on the desired gas
composition range, the consistency of equipment with the application and the required level of
uncertainty. This document aids with making an informed choice by listing all the advantages and
limitations of the methods.
The main techniques used for the preparation of gas mixtures are:
a) piston pumps;
b) continuous injection;
c) capillary;
d) critical orifices;
e) thermal mass-flow controllers;
f) diffusion;
g) saturation;
h) permeation;
i) electrochemical generation.
In dynamic methods, a gas A is introduced at a known constant volume or mass flow rate into a known
constant flow rate of a complementary gas B. Gases A and B can be either pure gases or gas mixtures.
The preparation process can be continuous (such as mass flow controllers, permeation tube) or pseudo-
continuous (such as piston pump).
The dynamic preparation techniques produce a continuous flow of calibration gas mixtures into the
analyser but do not generally allow the build-up of a reserve by storage under pressure.

5.1 General
All preparation techniques described in ISO 6145 (all parts) are based on the combination of gas flows.
These flow rates can be measured on a volume or mass basis. The composition is calculated from the
flow rate data and the composition of the parent gases.
It is applicable only to
— pure gases,
— gas mixtures, or

ISO 6145-1:2019(E)

— totally vaporized components at ambient pressure,
which do not react with each other or with any surfaces of the mixing device.
For the calculation of the composition, it is essential to appreciate the composition of the parent gases
used for preparing the calibration gas mixture. Even if such gases are considered “pure”, their purity
shall be verified in accordance with ISO 19229. The corresponding compositional data of these parent
gases shall be used in the calculation of the composition, as described in Clause 7.
Practically, all preparation systems are furthermore sensitive to changes or fluctuations in the
conditions under which the calibration gas mixture is prepared. These conditions typically include
the pressure and temperature of the gases, as well as the dynamic effects of combining flows and
homogenization of the calibration gas mixture, among others. In the subsequent parts of ISO 6145,
attention is drawn to these effects, and care shall be taken to follow these instructions.
Several techniques are available and the choice between them should be decided based on the desired
composition range, the availability of equipment and the required uncertainty.
The principles of gas mixing systems are described in each part of ISO 6145.
Depending on its principle, each dynamic method will generate gas mixtures of composition based
on either volume fraction, mass fraction, amount-of-substance fraction or mass concentration. The
calibration procedure will also affect the expression of gas mixture composition (mass, volume or
amount-of-substance fraction). The final fraction and its associated uncertainty depend both on the
calibration method and on the preparation technique.
5.2 Suitability of the method to the application
Before preparing a gas mixture, it is necessary to consider the suitability of the dynamic system to
the application. Pressure and flow rates should be consistent with the analyser to which the dynamic
system will be linked.
Users shall comply with the manufacturers' recommendations. Check if the dynamic method is sensitive
to external parameters, such as temperature or atmospheric pressure, and follow the recommendations
given in each part of ISO 6145.
Depending on the principle used by the dynamic system, the achievable range of concentration in
the final mixture will differ. In order to compare the capabilities of each method, a dilution ratio is
estimated as follows:
— use of pure components as parent components (for example: in cylinders, or permeation tubes or by
syringe injection);
— only one step dilution is considered.
This dilution ratio could be extended for some dynamic systems by two step dilution.
When choosing the type of the dynamic method, the user shall take into consideration the advantages
and limitations of each method.
5.3 Piston pumps
ISO 6145-2 specifies a volumetric method for the dynamic preparation of calibration gas mixture using
piston pumps. Two or more piston pumps, combined in a gas-mixing pump, are driven with a defined
ratio of strokes. The stroke volume of each piston pump is individually determined by the geometry
(cross-section) of the cylinder and the height of stroke of the piston. The composition is rapidly
changed by the mechanical changing of the ratio of strokes. Suitable peripherals for gas feeding and
homogenization of the final mixture are recommended.

ISO 6145-1:2019(E)

The calibration of the stroke volume is made by dimensional measurements in the SI base unit of length.
Uncertainty evaluation of the gas mixture composition and an assessment of potential sources with
quantification of significant sources of uncertainty are out lined in detail in ISO 6145-2.
The merits of the method are that the composition and the associated uncertainty of the calibration gas
mixture are calculated from the geometric stroke volume and the ratio of strokes of the piston pumps.
The content of each component is directly expressed in volume fractions and in amount-of-substance
fractions.
Final mixture flow rates from 5 l/h to 500 l/h can be prepared depending on the equipment used.
4
Using this method, dilution ratios from 1:1 up to 1:10 can be prepared from initial amount-of-substance
fraction. Higher dilution ratios can be prepared by a two-stage dilution.
5.4 Continuous (syringe) injection
ISO 6145-4 specifies a method for preparation of calibration gas mixtures using continuous injection.
The calibration component, either in the gaseous or liquid phase, is displaced from a reservoir through
a capillary into a complementary inert gas stream. The system may contain a syringe, whose plunger
is continuously driven by a suitable variable-speed motor. Alternatively, the component may be forced
through the capillary by controlled pressurization of the reservoir.
This method applies also to multi-component mixtures of known composition. In the case of l

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.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
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. Details of any
patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or on
the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.
For an explanation on the voluntary nature of standards, the meaning of ISO specific terms and
expressions related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO's adherence to the World
Trade Organization (WTO) principles in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) see the following URL:

This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 158 Gas Analysis.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition (ISO 6145-1:2003), which has been technically
revised.
The main changes compared to the previous edition are as follows:
- The techniques for the preparation of gas mixtures are described in an abbreviated manner
since there is no need to repeat the text and formulae from each of the different parts of the ISO
6145 series. However, a summary table presenting the advantages and limitations of each
method has been introduced.
- Recommendations regarding the handling of the dynamic mixing systems and quality
considerations have been added.
- The methods and instruments to calibrate a dynamic system have changed, and are better
described.
- The calculations to obtain composition and uncertainties are more detailed, and take into account
the different ways of mixing gases (volume flow rates or mass flow rates)
- Clauses on certificates and verification have been added.
A list of all parts in the ISO 6145 series can be found on the ISO website.

Introduction
This document is one of a series of standards which describes the various dynamic methods for the
preparation of calibration gas mixtures.
Several techniques are available and the choice between them is decided on the basis of the desired gas
composition range, the consistency of equipment with the application and the required level of
uncertainty. This document aids with making an informed choice by listing all the advantages and
limitations of the methods.
The main techniques used for the preparation of gas mixtures are:
a) piston pumps
b) continuous injection
c) capillary
d) critical orifices
e) thermal mass-flow controllers
f) diffusion
g) saturation
h) permeation
i) electrochemical generation
In dynamic methods, a gas A is introduced at a known constant volume or mass flow rate into a known
constant flow rate of a complementary gas B. Gases A and B can be either pure gases or gas mixtures. The
preparation process can be continuous (e.g., mass flow controllers, permeation tube) or pseudo-
continuous (e.g., piston pump).
The dynamic preparation techniques produce a continuous flow rate of calibration gas mixtures into the
analyser but do not generally allow the build-up of a reserve by storage under pressure.

1 Gas analysis — Preparation of calibration gas mixtures using
2 dynamic methods — Part 1: Methods of calibration
3 1 Scope
4 This document gives a brief overview of each of the dynamic techniques which are described in detail in
5 the following parts of ISO 6145. This document provides basic information to support an informed choice
6 for one or another method for the preparation of calibration gas mixtures. It also describes how these
7 methods can be linked to national measurement standards to establish metrological traceability for the
8 composition of the prepared gas mixtures.
9 Since all techniques are dynamic and rely on flow rates, this first part of ISO 6145 describes the
10 calibration process by measurement of each individual flow rate generated by the device.
11 Methods are also provided for assessing the composition of the generated gas mixtures by comparison
12 with an already validated calibration gas mixture.
13 This document provides general requirements for the use and operation of dynamic methods for gas
14 mixture preparation. It also includes the necessary expressions for calculating the calibration gas
15 composition and its associated uncertainty.
16 Gas mixtures obtained by these dynamic methods can be used to calibrate or control gas analysers.
17 The storage of dynamically prepared gas mixtures into bags or cylinders is beyond the scope of this
18 document.

45 5 Principle
46 5.1 General
47 All preparation techniques described in ISO 6145 (all parts) are based on the combination of gas flows.
48 These flow rates can be measured on a volume or mass basis. The composition is calculated from the flow
49 rate data and the composition of the parent gases.
50 It is applicable only to
51 — pure gases,
52 — gas mixtures, or
53 — totally vaporized components at ambient pressure.
54 which do not react with each other or with any surfaces of the mixing device.

55 For the calculation of the composition, it is essential to appreciate the composition of the parent gases
56 used for preparing the calibration gas mixture. Even if such gases are considered "pure", their purity shall
57 be verified in accordance with ISO 19229. The corresponding compositional data of these parent gases
58 shall be used in the calculation of the composition, as described in Clause 7 of this document.
59 Practically, all preparation systems are furthermore sensitive to changes or fluctuations in the conditions
60 under which the calibration gas mixture is prepared. These conditions typically include the pressure and
61 temperature of the gases, as well as the dynamic effects of combining flows and homogenization of the
62 calibration gas mixture, among others. In the subsequent parts of ISO 6145, attention is drawn to these
63 effects, and care shall be taken to follow these instructions.
