3、 diode laserabsorption spectroscopy(TDLAS)analyzers also known as a“TDL analyzers.”The particular wavelength for H2S measure-ment varies by manufacturer,typically between 1000 and10 000 nm with an individual laser having a tunable range ofless than 10 nm.The H2S concentration ranges can be any-where
4、 from 0-5 ppm(v)to 0-90%by volume.1.2 UnitsThe values stated in SI units are to be regardedas the standard.No other units of measurement are included inthis standard.TDLAS analyzers inherently output concentra-tions in unitless molar ratios such as ppm(v).NOTE1Weight-per-volume units such as milligr
5、ams or grains of H2Sper cubic foot or cubic meter can be derived from ppm(v)at“standardconditions”or standard temperature and pressure.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establ
