This digitaloutput goes to a digital display and/or recording device that may be internal or external to the device. These devices are sometimesreferred to as a “digital thermometer.”

Summary of Test Method4.1 A specimen 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 cont

23、inues to cool, for each1 C below the first test temperature. Testing is continued 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 ja

24、r before the fuel has cooled by a further 1 C.4.2 The indicated temperature at which 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 sy

25、stems.5.2 In the case of diesel fuel used in European light duty trucks, the results 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

26、 than 12 C below the cloud point value in accordance with Test Method D2500, D5771, 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

27、from the sample as received and after heat treatment at 45 C for 30 min can be used toinvestigate complaints of unsatisfactory performance under low temperature conditions.6.
