United States15.2 Automotive fuel specifications generally include T(V/L = 20) limits to ensure products of suitable volatility perfor-mance. For high ambient temperatures, a fuel with a high valueof T(V/L = 20), indicating a fuel with a low

29、ammable, health hazard.)8. Sampling8.1 General:8.1.1 Conduct bulk sampling to obtain the laboratorysamples in accordance with Practice D4057 except forgasoline-oxygenate blends where water displacement is notused. The extreme sensitivity of T(V/L)measurements to lossesthrough evaporation and the res

30、ulting changes in compositionis such as to require the utmost precaution and the mostmeticulous care in the handling of samples. (WarningExtremely flammable, harmful if inhaled or ingested. Skinirritant on repeated contact. Aspiration hazard.)8.1.2 The size of the sample container from which thesamp

31、le is taken shall be 1 L (1 qt). It shall be 70 % to 80 %filled with sample.8.1.3 The precision statement will be derived using samplesin 1 L (1 qt) containers. However, samples taken in containersof other sizes as prescribed in Practice D4057 can be used if itis recognized that the precision could

32、be affected. In the case ofreferee testing, the 1 L (1 qt) sample is mandatory.8.1.4 Perform the T(V/L)determination on the first testspecimen withdrawn from the sample container. Do not use theremaining sample in the container for a second T(V/L)determi-nation. If a second determination is necessar

33、y, obtain a newsample.8.1.5 Protect samples from excessive temperature prior totesting. This can be accomplished by storage in an appropriateice bath or refrigerator.8.1.6 Do not test samples stored in leaky containers. Discardand obtain a new sample if leaks are detected.8.2 Sampling TemperatureCoo

36、ent of the temperature of a similar liquid in a likecontainer placed in the cooling bath at the same time as thesample.8.3 Verification of Sample Container Filling:8.3.1 With the sample at a temperature of 0 C to 1 C, takethe container from the cooling bath or refrigerator and wipe drywith absorbent

37、 material. If the container is not transparent,unseal it and using a suitable gage, confirm that the samplevolume equals 70 % to 80 % of the container capacity (seeNote 5). If the sample is contained in a transparent glasscontainer, verify that the container is 70 % to 80 % full bysuitable means (se

38、e Note 5).8.3.2 Discard the sample if the container is filled to less than70 % by volume of the container capacity.8.3.3 If the container is filled to more than 80 % by volume,pour out enough sample to bring the container contents towithin the 70 % to 80 % by volume range. Do not return anysample to

39、 the container once it has been withdrawn.NOTE 5For non-transparent containers, one way to confirm that thesample volume equals 70 % to 80 % of the container capacity is to use adipstick that has been pre-marked to indicate the 70 % and 80 % containercapacities. The dipstick should be of such materi

40、al that it shows wettingafter being immersed and withdrawn from the sample. To confirm thesample volume, insert the dipstick into the sample container so that ittouches the bottom of the container at a perpendicular angle, beforeremoving the dipstick. For transparent containers, using a marked ruler

41、 orby comparing the sample container to a like container which has the 70 %and 80 % levels clearly marked, has been found suitable.8.3.4 Reseal the container, if necessary, and return thesample container to the cooling bath or refrigerator.8.4 Air Saturation of the Sample in the Sample Container:8.4

42、.1 Transparent Container OnlySince 8.3.1 does notrequire that the sample container be opened to verify thesample capacity, it is necessary to unseal the cap momentarilybefore resealing it, so that samples in transparent containers aretreated the same as samples in non-transparent containers.8.4.2 Wi

43、th the sample again at a temperature of 0 C to1 C, take the container from the cooling bath or refrigerator,wipe it dry with an absorbent material, remove the capmomentarily, taking care that no water enters, reseal and shakevigorously. Return it to the bath or refrigerator for a minimumof 2 minutes

44、.9. Preparation of Apparatus9.1 Prepare the instrument for operation in accordance withthe manufacturers instructions.9.2 Clean and dry, or rinse the test chamber to avoidcontamination of the test sample.9.3 When a vacuum pump is used for evacuation prior tosample introduction, visually determine fr

45、om the instrumentdisplay that the test chamber pressure is stable and does notexceed 0.1 kPa (0.01 psia). If the pressure is not stable orexceeds this value, check that the chamber contains no volatilematerials from a previous sample, the seals are satisfactory, thecalibration of the transducer is c

46、orrect, and the apparatus doesnot leak.9.4 If a syringe is used for introduction of the samplespecimen, chill the syringe to between 0 C and 1.0 C (32 Fto 34 F) such as in a refrigerator or ice bath before drawing inthe sample specimen. Water contamination of the syringereservoir during this cooling

47、 procedure shall be avoided. Oneway to achieve this is by sealing the outlet of the syringe duringthe cooling process.9.5 When a vacuum pump is used for evacuation prior tointroduction of the test specimen, set the temperature of the testchamber to close to the expected result, if known; or 40 C(104

48、 F), if unknown.9.6 When a moveable piston is used for evacuation, set thetemperature of the test chamber to close to 20 C (68 F) priorto introduction of the test specimen.10. Calibration10.1 Perform a calibration check of the pressure transduceras indicated by the performance check (see 10.3). The

49、calibra-tion of the transducer is accomplished using two referencepoints, zero pressure, and ambient barometric pressure.NOTE 6Calibration frequency of the pressure transducer may varywith instrument type and frequency of use. A calibration check of thepressure transducer at least once every six months is recommended.NOTE 7Pressure transducers can be sensitive to working temperature.Calibration should be performed at the test chamber temperature mostfrequently used.10.1.1 Connect a McLeod gage or a calibrated electronicvacuum meas
