| Part no | Dräger Tube | Substance | Measurement Range |
| 8101341 | Tetrahydrothiophene 1/b (5) | Dicyclopentadiene | 1.5 to 15 mg/m3 |
| Tetrahydrothiophene | 1 to 45 mg/m3 |
Application Range:
| Standard Measuring Range: | 1 to 10 ppm / 4 to 40 mg/m3 |
| Number of Strokes n: | 30 |
| Time for Measurement: | in air: approx. 15 min in natural gas: approx. 10 min |
| Standard Deviation: | ± 15 to 20 % |
| Colour Change: | violet to yellow brown |
Ambient Operating Conditions:
| Temperature: | 0 to 35 °C |
| Absolute Humidity | < 30 mg H2O / L |
Reaction Principle:
THT + KMnO4 ~> yellow brown reaction product
Cross Sensitivity:
Up to 10 ppm hydrogen sulfide is adsorbed in the pretube, causing a brown discoloration. It is impossible to measure tetrahydrothiophene in the presence of mercaptans. Up to 100 ppm of olefines (e. g. ethene, propene) will cause the color of the indicating layer to become lighter, at higher concentrations the olefins are also indicated. Up to 200 ppm methanol does not interfere
Extension of the Measuring Range
1.6 to 16 ppm / 6.4 to 64 mg/m3 n = 20 multiply the reading by 1.6.
