Reaction Principle
NH3+ pH indicator -> blue reaction product
Cross Sensitivity
Other basic substances such as e.g. organic amines are indicated
as well.
The indication is not affected by:
300 ppm nitrous fumes
2,000 ppm sulfur dioxide
2,000 ppm hydrogen sulfide
Extension of the Measuring Range
Using n = 2 strokes, divide the reading by 2; the measuring range
will be 2.5 to 50 ppm.
