19、ice consisting of a digital display and associated temperaturesensing probe.3.1.1.1 DiscussionThis device consists of a temperature sensor connected to a measuring instrument; this instrument measures the temperature-dependent quantity of the sensor, computes the temperature from the measured quanti

These devices are sometimesreferred to as a “digital thermometer.”3.1.1.2 DiscussionPET is an acronym for portable electronic thermometers, a subset

22、 and 35.43.2.2 cold filter plugging point, nhighest temperature, expressed in multiples of 1 C, at which a given volume of fuel failsto pass through a standardized filtration device in a specified time when cooled under the conditions prescribed in this test method.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 A spe

23、cimen of the sample is cooled under specified conditions and, at intervals of 1 C, is drawn into a pipet under acontrolled vacuum through a standardized wire mesh filter. The procedure is repeated, as the specimen continues to cool, for each1 C below the first test temperature. Testing is continued

24、until the amount of wax crystals that have separated out of solution issufficient to stop or slow down the flow so that the time taken to fill the pipet exceeds 60 s or the fuel fails to return completelyto the test jar before the fuel has cooled by a further 1 C.4.2 The indicated temperature at whi

25、ch the last filtration was commenced is recorded as the CFPP.5. Significance and Use5.1 The CFPP of a fuel is suitable for estimating the lowest temperature at which a fuel will give trouble-free flow in certainfuel systems.5.2 In the case of diesel fuel used in European light duty trucks, the resul

26、ts are usually close to the temperature of failure inservice except when the fuel system contains, for example, a paper filter installed in a location exposed to the weather or if thefilter plugging temperature is more than 12 C below the cloud point value in accordance with Test Method D2500, D5771

27、, D5772,or D5773. Domestic heating installations are usually less critical and often operate satisfactorily at temperatures somewhat lowerthan those indicated by the test results.5.3 The difference in results obtained from the sample as received and after heat treatment at 45 C for 30 min can be use

28、d toinvestigate complaints of unsatisfactory performance under low temperature conditions.6.
