| Sample quantity needed: |
20 - 100 mg |
| Unit: |

| Test result: |
Chlorine content |
| Operating time: |
~ 5 minutes |
| Analysis of: |
Gas engine oils, particularly if they are fired with unconventional gas, ex. Landfill gas, mine gas, etc |
| Brief description: |
The oil sample is burned at a temperature of 1000°C under supply of oxygen. The combustion gases are continued to rinse with the gas flow into the titration cell. In this cell is among other things a silver electrode in an electrolytic solution. If the combustion gases contain chloride ions, then these react with the silver ions, the silver content in the solution sink, and by more current consumption becomes the loss at silver ions in the solution again balanced. As soon as chlorine is completely abreacted, the measurement is terminated. From the river used for the measurement the chlorine content in the sample is computed.

| Statement: |
In landfill and biological gas facilities that is partly burdening gas which can be burned with chloric connections. With the burn then chlorine can arrive into the oil. The determination of the chlorine content serves the danger for the estimation for the formation of aggressive acids around so-called „pitting corrosion “to prevent.
