1、Designation: D2068 14D2068 17Standard Test Method forDetermining Filter Blocking Tendency1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D2068; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A numbe

2、r in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONThis test method describes three procedures using different filter media. The result of any test isdependent on the filter mandated in the p

3、rocedure. If a specification requires a specific D2068procedure, do not substitute a different procedure or filter without agreement from the specifier.1. Scope*1.1 This test method covers three procedures for the determination of the filter blocking tendency (FBT) and filterability ofmiddle distill

Terminology3.1 Definitions of Terms Specific to This Standard:3.1.1 filterability, nof certain fuels, the relationship between the volume of sample filtered and the measured pressure increaseacross the filter.3.1.1.1 Discus

18、sionThe filterability of the fuel can be assessed by recording the pressure when a specific volume of fuel has flowed through the filter,or recording the volume when a specific pressure across the filter has been achieved. This assessment may be assisted by plottinga volume versus pressure graph. Se

19、e Appendix X1.3.1.2 filter blocking tendency (FBT), nof certain fuels, a calculated dimensionless value that defines the tendency ofparticulates in a fuel to plug or block a filter.3.1.2.1 DiscussionThe value is calculated using the pressure across the filter or the volume of fuel filtered at the en

20、d of the test. Depending on theoutcome of the test, one of two equations is applied. See Section 10, Calculation. See 5.6 for interpretation of results.3.1.2 filterability, nof certain fuels, the relationship between the volume of sample filtered and the measured pressure increaseacross the filter.3

21、.1.2.1 DiscussionThe filterability of the fuel can be assessed by recording the pressure when a specific volume of fuel has flowed through the filter,or recording the volume when a specific pressure across the filter has been achieved. This assessment may be assisted by plottinga volume versus press

22、ure graph. See Appendix X1.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 A test portion of the fuel to be analysed is passed at a constant rate of flow (20 mL/min) through a specified filter medium.The pressure difference across the filter, and the volume of fuel passing the filter, are monitored until the pressure

23、reaches 105 kPaor the volume of fuel passing the filter medium reaches 300 mL. The pressure (see 3.1.13.1.2.1) and flow are then used to calculatethe filter blocking tendency, where a low number indicates a good fuel (see 5.6).4.2 The glass fiber filters specified for Procedures A and B are both 1.6

24、 m nominal pore diameter; Filter B is a pre-assembledencapsulated type.4.3 The pre-assembled nylon filter specified for Procedure C has a 5 m nominal pore diameter.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method is intended for use in evaluating the cleanliness of middle distillate fuels, and biodiesel

25、and biodiesel blendsfor specifications and quality control purposes.5.2 The filter media specified in the three procedures are all suitable for the materials in the Scope. Specifications calling upthis test method should state the procedure required.5.3 A change in filtration performance after stora

26、ge or pretreatment can be indicative of changes of fuel condition.5.4 The filterability of fuels varies depending on filter porosity and structure and therefore results from this test method mightnot correlate with full scale full-scale filtration.5.5 Causes of poor filterability in industrial/refin

27、ery filters include fuel degradation products, contaminants (including water)picked up during storage or transfer, effects due to temperature or composition for bio fuels, incompatibility of commingled fuels,or interaction of the fuel with the filter media. Any of these could correlate with orifice

28、or filter system plugging, or both.3 Available from American National Standards Institute (ANSI), 25 W. 43rd St., 4th Floor, New York, NY 10036, http:/www.ansi.org.4 This adjunct has been withdrawn and is no longer available.D2068 1725.6 The results of the FBT test can range from 1 with a fuel with

29、very good filterability, to over 100 for a fuel with poorfilterability. The selection of a single FBT number to define a pass or fail criteria is not possible as this will be dependent on thefuel type and applications.6.

Preparation of Apparatus8.1 Verification:8.1.1 Pressure and TemperatureFollow the manufacturers instructions for verifying that the pressure and temperaturereadings are in acc

47、ordance with the tolerances given in A1.1.3 and 6.6, respectively. Verify the pressure reading, at ambientatmospheric pressure (0 kPa) and at approximately 100 kPa, at least every 6six months or if the apparatus has not been used forthe previous 3three months. Verify the temperature reading is corre

48、ct, at ambient temperature, at least every 12twelve months. Ifthe readings do not meet the specified tolerances in A1.1.3 and 6.6, calibrate the sensors (8.2.1).8.1.2 Flow RateFollow the manufacturers instructions for verifying that the flow rate is 2020 mL61 mL/min through a filterassembly. The flo

49、w rate is verified by measuring the volume pumped during a 15 minutemin period, at least once a month, usinga suitable measuring cylinder (6.4). If the measured volume is between 285285 mL and 315 mL the flow rate is correct. Morefrequent checks on the flow rate may be made by measuring the volume during a 1 minutemin period using a 25 mL measuringcylinder (6.3). If the measured volume is not between 1919 mL and 21 mL, calibrate the pump (8.2.2).8.2 Calibration:8.2.1 Pressure and TemperatureFollow the manufacturers instructions to calibrate the p
