Frequent and regular monitoring of this substance in the workplace air is essential. The known test tube method is used for this. A known method for detecting volatile as well as atomized arsine poisonous gas makes use of a test tube in which a filter consisting of an inorganic or organic fibrous material, such as glass cotton cellulose, asbestos, is fitted upstream of a layer of highly active silica gel. . As the air sample passes through, the arsine it contains is retained in the filter, while the volatile arsine is fixed by the silica gel. The reagent is then passed through the test tube in the form of a tin chloride solution in concentrated hydrochloric acid. In this case, the mist droplets retained by the fiber filter are entrained by the reagent,
washed away into the silica gel layer. Arsine poison gas reacts with reagents on silica gel. Measurement using this method can only quantitatively detect arsine poisonous gas with an indicated sensitivity of 5 mg in 1 m 3 (West German Patent No.
742689 specification).

Other known test tubes for detecting chlorvinylarsine (Lewisite) include an ampoule filled with hydrochloric acid in the direction of flow of the air to be tested, a support material coated with a metal powder, such as zinc, aluminum or magnesium powder. a surface active layer of alkali glass gravel or the like and an indicator layer of a known detection reagent for hydrogen arsenide, such as silica gel impregnated with a solution of gold chloride. To measure chlorvinylarsine, the tip of the test tube is broken off and the air to be tested is absorbed into the test tube. If the air contains lewisite, this is separated in the surface-active layer with the formation of arsenic compounds. After absorbing a predefined amount of air, the ampoule is broken through a crushing groove provided in the test tube wall, but its contents, together with still a small amount of air, bind to the metal powder as hydrochloric acid vapor. The hydrogen generated here reacts with the precipitated arsenic compound to form hydrogen arsenide, which colors the indicator layer in a known manner (West German Patent No. 1140749).

Both known test tube methods use arsenic trioxide in air.
It is not suitable for quantitatively defining aerosols. Its sensitivity is insufficient to measure within the limits indicated in the list of MAK values for arsenic trioxide = 0.2 mg/m 3 . Conventionally, quantitative measurements within this limit range have had to be carried out by laboratory methods due to the high cost.

This task consists of using an ampoule containing a reagent, which is placed upstream of the indicator layer, seen in the flow direction of the air to be tested, and is surrounded by a glass tube with a breakable tip. In test tubes for measuring arsenic trioxide aerosols, the ampoule is broken when the glass tube is broken, and the break point is covered with a shrink hose. A reagent ampoule filled with dilute sulfuric acid, a filter paper impregnated with zinc dust connected to the end of the glass tube wall, an accumulation layer of granular silica gel, a separating layer of granular inert quartz and The solution is to include an indicator layer consisting of granular silica gel impregnated with gold chloride.

This solution is advantageously used in test tube methods.
The test tube according to the invention allows all necessary parts to be combined in one device. The test tube method is generally known in principle and makes it possible to carry out air tests for monitoring workplaces in a simple manner and manner. For the measurement, in a first step the tip of the test tube is opened and then a predetermined amount of the air to be tested is passed through the test tube using a known suction pump. In a similar subsequent process, fold the reagent ampoule and
The contents are then drawn up into the separation layer using a suction pump. If the arsenic trioxide aerosol to be measured is present in the test air, a reduction to hydrogen arsenide takes place, which then colors the indicator layer. The length of the coloration is directly proportional to the amount of arsenic trioxide aerosol deposited and is therefore a measure for the concentration in the air to be tested, 0.1-1 mg As 2 O 3 per m 3
A range of concentrations can be reliably detected.

A wide variety of test tubes for measuring a number of corresponding gases are known. Many known components can also be utilized in test tubes according to the invention. This is a glass tube 6 with two breakable tips 7 and 8. The charge is held in its individual sections between the holding members 10 in a manner that it cannot swing. The glass tube 6 is successively arranged in the flow direction 9 of the air to be tested, including a crushable reagent ampoule 1 filled with dilute sulfuric acid and a filter paper 2 impregnated with zinc dust connected to the end of the glass tube wall. , an integration layer 3, a separation layer 4 and an indicator layer 5. The material of the accumulation layer 3 is in this case granular silica gel, the material of the separation layer 4 is granular inert quartz, and the material of the indicator layer 5 is granular silica gel impregnated with gold chloride. The breakable reagent ampoule 1 is surrounded by a glass tube with a constriction as the breaking point 12. This broken point is covered with an airtight shrink hose 11, which bends so that when the glass tube is broken, the ampoule inside is also broken. In this case, the shrink hose 11 prevents the test gas as well as the contents of the ampoule from leaking out of the glass tube.
