Liquefied petroleum gases - Detection of hydrogen sulfide - Lead acetate method (ISO 8819:1993)

Specifies a procedure for the detection of hydrogen sulfide. The lower limit of detectability is 4 mg of hydrogen sulfide in 1 m^3 of gas. Methyl mercaptan, if present, produces a transistory yellow stain on the lead acetate paper which, however, fades completely in less than 5 min. Other sulfur compounds present in the gas do not interfere with the test.

Flüssiggas - Nachweis von Schwefelwasserstoff - Bleiacetatverfahren (ISO 8819:1993)

Diese Internationale Norm beschreibt ein Verfahren zum Nachweis von Schwefel- wasserstoff in Flüssiggasen. Die untere Erfassungsgrenze ist 4 mg Schwefel- wasserstoff je m3 Flüssiggas. Falls Methylmercaptan vorhanden ist, bildet sich auf dem Bleiacetatpapier eine gelbe Verfärbung, die jedoch innerhalb von weniger als 5 min vollständig verschwindet. Andere in Flüssiggas vorhandene Schwefelverbindungen stören den Nachweis nicht.

Gaz de pétrole liquéfiés - Détection de l'acide sulfhydrique - Méthode a l'acétate de plomb (ISO 8819:1993)

La présente Norme internationale prescrit une méthode pour la détection de l'acide sulfhydrique contenu dans les gaz de pétrole liquéfiés. Le seuil de détectabilité est de 4 mg d'acide sulfhydrique dans 1 m3 de gaz de pétrole liquéfié. La présence de méthylmercaptan se traduit par une tache jaune passagère sur le papier réactif à l'acétate de plomb, qui disparaît complètement en moins de 5 min. La présence d'autres composés soufrés dans le gaz de pétrole liquéfié n'a aucune répercussion sur l'essai.  
NOTE 1 Les gaz de pétrole liquéfiés et les produits de leur combustion ne devraient pas être trop corrosifs ni trop réactifs vis-à-vis des matériaux avec lesquels ils se trouvent en contact. Il est donc important de détecter la présence d'acide sulfhydrique, lequel est une substance très réactive. De plus, l'odeur de l'acide sulfhydrique est inacceptable pour certaines utilisations des gaz de pétrole liquéfiés (essence à briquet, par exemple).

Foreword
IS0 (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide
federation of national standards bodies (IS0 member bodies). The work
of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through IS0
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for
which a technical committee has been established has the right to be
represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental
and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. IS0
collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission
(IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are
circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International
Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting
a vote.
International Standard IS0 8819 was prepared by Technical Committee
ISODC 28, Petroleum products and lubricants.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition
(IS0 8819:1987), which has been technically revised.
Annex A of this International Standard is for information only.
