New Test Method for Determination of Total Hydrocarbons in Compressed Air or Nitrogen
1. Scope
This new test method will be developed specifically for testing for low levels of total hydrocarbons in compressed air or nitrogen systems or bottles. This method will cover sampling techniques and analytical methods for accurate measurements to ensure the quality of the source gas (air or nitrogen) can meet certain performance specifications for compressed gas.
Keywords
Nitrogen, compressed air, total hydrocarbons
Rationale
There is currently no test method specifically for compressed air or nitrogen, even though this is a common requirement for uses and makers of compressed air and nitrogen.
