Terminology3.1 Definitions:3.1.1 digital contact thermometer (D

17、CT), nan electronicdevice consisting of a digital display and associated tempera-ture sensing probe.3.1.1.1 DiscussionThis device consists of a temperaturesensor connected to a measuring instrument; this instrumentmeasures the temperature-dependent quantity of the sensor,computes the temperature fro

18、m the measured quantity, andprovides a digital output. This digital output goes to a digitaldisplay and/or recording device that may be internal or externalto the device. These devices are sometimes referred to as a“digital thermometer.”3.1.1.2 DiscussionPET is an acronym for portable elec-tronic th

Summary of Test

21、Method4.1 A specimen of the sample is cooled under specifiedconditions and, at intervals of 1 C, is drawn into a pipet undera controlled vacuum through a standardized wire mesh filter.The procedure is repeated, as the specimen continues to cool,for each 1 C below the first test temperature. Testing

22、iscontinued until the amount of wax crystals that have separatedout of solution is sufficient to stop or slow down the flow sothat the time taken to fill the pipet exceeds 60 s or the fuel failsto return completely to the test jar before the fuel has cooled bya further 1 C.4.2 The indicated temperat

23、ure at which the last filtrationwas commenced is recorded as the CFPP.5. Significance and Use5.1 The CFPP of a fuel is suitable for estimating the lowesttemperature at which a fuel will give trouble-free flow incertain fuel systems.5.2 In the case of diesel fuel used in European light dutytrucks, th

24、e results are usually close to the temperature of failurein service except when the fuel system contains, for example,a paper filter installed in a location exposed to the weather orif the filter plugging temperature is more than 12 C below thecloud point value in accordance with Test Method D2500,D

25、5771, D5772,orD5773. Domestic heating installations areusually less critical and often operate satisfactorily at tempera-tures somewhat lower than those indicated by the test results.5.3 The difference in results obtained from the sample asreceived and after heat treatment at 45 C for 30 min can beu

26、sed to investigate complaints of unsatisfactory performanceunder low temperature conditions.6.
