Additional information
| Significance and Use | ||||||||||||||||
|
5.1?The water and sediment content of fuel oil is significant because it can cause corrosion of equipment and problems in processing. A determination of water and sediment content is required to measure accurately net volumes of actual fuel oil in sales, taxation, exchanges, and custody transfers. 5.2?This test method may not be suitable for products that contain alcohols that are soluble in water. In cases where the impact on the results may be significant, the user is advised to consider using another test method, such as Test Method D6304. |

|
1.1?This test method describes the laboratory determination of water and sediment in fuel oils in the range from 0 % to 30 % volume by means of the centrifuge procedure. Note 1:?With some types of fuel oils such as residual fuel
oils or distillate fuel oils containing residual components, it is
difficult to obtain water or sediment contents with this test
method. When this situation is encountered, Test Method
D95 (API MPMS Chapter 10.5) or Test Method
D473 (API MPMS Chapter 10.1) may be
used.
Note 2:?API MPMS Chapter 10.6 (Test Method
D1796) along with API
1.2?The
values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The
values given in parentheses are for information only.
1.3?This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. 1.4?This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee. |
