APPARATUS FOR HYDROGEN SULFIDE TESTER AZA1314
The Apparatus for Hydrogen Sulfide Tester AZA1314 from AZA Lab conforms to the ASTM D7621 Standard Test Method for the determination of hydrogen sulfide in fuel oils by rapid liquid phase extraction.
In this method, a weighed test sample is placed into a heated vessel containing a diluent base oil, where air is bubbled through to extract hydrogen sulfide gas. The extracted gas is then directed, via a vapor phase processor (Procedure A), to an H₂S-specific electrochemical detector, which measures its concentration in air and calculates the amount in the liquid phase in mg/kg. For Procedure B, the use of a filter cartridge is not required.
