| Abstract |
Report on the evaluation of the physical and performance (measured under controlled conditions) characteristics of 9 commercially available portable direct-reading hydrogen sulfide monitoring devices. Characteristics considered include: portability; readout; recorder output; simplicity of operation; instruction manuals; safety approval; ruggedness; sample conditioning; calibration; useful range; accuracy; zero drift; warm-up time; response time; operating humidity and temperature ranges; interferences and linearity; calibration stability. Test methods are described and the results are given in tabular form. |
