Abstract
The performance characteristics of commercially available sulfur dioxide monitors were determined. Con-ductimetric, colorimetric, and coulometric analyzers were investigated. During this phase of the study, characteristics that were more closely related to field operation were studied. These included comparability of data among the instruments over a period of time, weekly calibration drift, maintenance requirements (including operating cost), unattended operation performance, and the effect of rotameter changes on calibration. The methodology and apparatus used to determine each operational parameter are described. The results of this study should be useful in the selection of instruments for monitoring sulfur dioxide.
