What is the partial pressure limit of wet H2S for carbon steel at what temperature

What does the spec that you are working with say?
Each of the specs lists alloys and the limits for H2S, temp, pH, and other criteria.

As Mr. Jones pointed out, the NACE spec just addresses cracking.
You need to also consider all other forms of corrosion that might impact service.

NACE MR0175 is a widely spread practice but actual limits depends on industry. What is your industry?
 
@ENGRANIA
This is an equipment type, not an industry. Check ISO 17945, ISO 21457, ISO 15156, NACE 8X194, NACE MR0103, NACE RP0296 for applicability. Note that standard applicable is affected by CO2 content and similar factors. Also para. 8 API 581 and DNVGL's report #14671 "Neutral and High pH SCC" might be useful.
