Berger) Reply-to: [email protected] To: [email protected] Hi Roger; I machined down a #14 ga wire to 0.020 that is about 1/4" long and made a run with it. Today I have made four 2 liter HVAC arc with CO2 gas blanket all at diferent run times, as below. Minutes Final conductance Arc elect. dia. T.E. NO3 (resolution 0.01 ppm from 0 to 20 ppm) 60 36 0.020" VVVW 0 76 57 0.063" VVVW 0 90 55 0.063" None 0 110 47 0.063" None 0 The T.E. was measured in a total dark room (10:15 pm) in the basement with no lights. V= Very; W=Weak. In all cases the arc was blue. If any red or yellow shows up the NO3 will increase.
Bob: When I achieve sputtering the color is deep orange with sparks. I have analyzed for nitrate and nitrite several times and have found "below detection limit" or very close to it. Roger I have not had time to run Ag ppm but in the past it has followed rather closely to the final conductance. The finer arc point had no effect on the production rate. Are you using a CO2 gas blanket or how are you generating the plasma? In what ambient?\ Bob: I do not use a protective blanket of any kind.
