6.5 Permeation Tube (used with IZS option)
SO
is normally a gas at room temperature and pressure, but can be liquefied at moderate
2
pressures. The permeation tube consists of a small container of SO
of PTFE which is permeable to SO
the nanogram/min range. If the tube is kept at constant temperature, usually about 50
device will provide a stable source of SO
intended to be used as a periodic span check and is not to be used as a calibration device.
See below for permeation tube ordering information.

output is a fixed function of the permeation tube and is noted on shipping container.
The temperature is set at 50.0

temperature warnings set at 49
tube at all times to prevent build-up of SO
If desired, the output of the permeation tube can be adjusted by adjusting the oven temperature up or
down slightly. The adjust increment is 0.1
temperature.
When the IZS system is in SPAN mode, the flow across the permeation tube is the sum of the
reaction cell flow and the purge flow, which is about 700 cc/min. The gas concentration can be
calculated using following equation;
PxKm
C =
F
where
P=permeation rate, ng/min.@ 50
Km=(24.46)/molecular weight, where 24.46 is the molar volume in liters @ 25

F=total flow rate (sum of sample flow and purge flow), cc/min.
C=concentration, ppm.
