31、NOTE 1When the DCT display is mounted on the end to the probessheath, the test jar with the probe inserted will be unstable. To resolve this,it is recommended that the probe be less than 30 cm in length but no lessthan 15 cm.A5 cm long stopper, that has a low thermal conductivity, withapproximately

32、half of it inserted in the sample tube will improve stability.6.2.2.1 The DCT calibration drift shall be checked at leastannually by either measuring the ice point or against areference thermometer in a constant temperature bath at theprescribed immersion depth to ensure compliance with 6.2.2.See Te

The gasket may be made of rubber, leather, or othermaterial that is elastic enough to cling to the test jar and hardenough to hold its shape. Its pu

Procedure8.1 Pour the specimen into the test jar to the level mark.When necessary, heat the specimen in a bath until it is justsufficiently fluid t

39、o pour into the test jar.NOTE 3It is known that some materials, when heated to a temperaturehigher than 45 C during the preceding 24 h, do not yield the same pourpoint results as when they are kept at room temperature for 24 h prior totesting. Examples of materials which are known to show sensitivit

40、y tothermal history are residual fuels, black oils, and cylinder stocks.8.1.1 Samples of residual fuels, black oils, and cylinderstocks which have been heated to a temperature higher than45 C during the preceding 24 h, or when the thermal history ofthese sample types is not known, shall be kept at r

41、oomtemperature for 24 h before testing. Samples which are knownby the operator not to be sensitive to thermal history need notbe kept at room temperature for 24 h before testing.8.1.2 Experimental evidence supporting elimination of the24 h waiting period for some sample types is contained in aresear

42、ch report.68.2 In the case of pour points above 36 C, use a higherrange temperature measuring device (6.2) such as IP 63C orASTM 61C, or a digital contact thermometer. Close the test jarwith the cork carrying the test temperature measuring device(6.2). Adjust the position of the cork and temperature

43、 measur-ing device so the cork fits tightly, the temperature measuringdevice and the jar are coaxial, and the temperature measuringdevice is immersed to the correct depth.8.2.1 For liquid-in-glass, the thermometer bulb should beimmersed so the beginning of the capillary is 3 mm below thesurface of t

44、he specimen.8.2.2 For digital contact thermometers, the probe should beimmersed so the end of the probe is 10 mm to 15 mm below thesurface of the specimen.8.3 For the measurement of pour point, subject the speci-men in the test jar to the following preliminary treatment:8.3.1 Specimens Having Pour P

45、oints Above 33 CHeatthe specimen without stirring to 9 C above the expected pourpoint, but to at least 45 C, in a bath maintained at 12 C abovethe expected pour point, but at least 48 C. Transfer the test jarto a bath maintained at 24 C 6 1.5 C and commenceobservations for pour point. When using a l

46、iquid bath, ensurethat the liquid level is between the fill mark on the test jar andthe top of the test jar.8.3.2 Specimens Having Pour Points of 33 C andBelowHeat the specimen without stirring to at least 45 C ina bath maintained at 48 C 6 1.5 C. Transfer the test jar to abath maintained at 24 C 6

47、1.5 C. When using a liquid bath,ensure that the liquid level is between the fill mark on the testjar and the top of the test jar. When the specimen temperaturereaches 27 C, and if using liquid-in-glass thermometers,remove the high cloud and pour thermometer, and place thelow cloud and pour thermomet

48、er in position. Transfer the testjar to the cooling bath (see 8.6.1).8.4 See that the disk, gasket, and the inside of the jacket areclean and dry. Place the disk in the bottom of the jacket. Placethe gasket around the test jar, 25 mm from the bottom. Insertthe test jar in the jacket. Never place a j

49、ar directly into thecooling medium.8.5 After the specimen has cooled to allow the formation ofparaffin wax crystals, take great care not to disturb the mass ofspecimen nor permit the thermometer to shift in the specimen;any disturbance of the spongy network of wax crystals willlead to low and erroneous results.8.6 Pour points are expressed in integers that are positive ornegative multiples of 3 C. Begin to examine the appearance ofthe specimen when the temperature of the specimen is 9 Cabove the expected pour
