1、Designation:D546213Standard Test Method forOn-Line Measurement of Low-Level Dissolved Oxygen inWater1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D5462;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.
2、A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This test method covers the on-line determination ofdissolved oxygen(DO)in water samples primarily in rangesfrom 0 to 500 g/L(ppb),althou
3、gh higher ranges may be usedfor calibration.On-line instrumentation is used for continuousmeasurements of DO in samples that are brought throughsample lines and conditioned from high-temperature and high-pressure sources when necessary.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard.
4、No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.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 establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bilit
