A superscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1 NOTEUnits information was editorially revised in December 2010.1. Scope1.1 T

3、his test method practice covers the determination technique for a dip tube of a mechanical pump dispenser.1.2 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in eachsystem may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall

4、 be used independently of the other. Combining values from thetwo systems may result in non-conformance with the standard.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibilityof the user of this standard to establish appro

5、priate safety safety, health, and healthenvironmental practices and determine theapplicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.1.4 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardizationestablished in the Decision on Principles for

6、 the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issuedby the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.2. Significance and Use2.1 This test method practice is to be used to determine the length of a dip tube of a mechanical pump dispenser that exten

7、dsto the bottom-corner of a container.2.2 This test method practice is to be used to determine the length of a dip tube of a mechanical pump dispenser that extendsto the bottom-center of a container.3. Apparatus3.1 Thin Metal Ruler, with minimum gradients of one millimeter and/or 116 in. along with

8、a zero index at the end of the ruler.3.2 Calipers.4. ProcedureTEST METHOD PRACTICE “A”DIP TUBE LENGTH DETERMINATION TO THE BOTTOM-CORNER OF THECONTAINERNOTE 1This test method practice is used when the dip tube of a mechanical pump dispenser must extend to the bottom-corner of a container.4.1 Place t

9、he zero-index end of the ruler into the container as shown in Fig. 1.4.2 Turn the ruler so that the side of the ruler reaches as far into the bottom-corner of the container as possible.NOTE 2If the cross-sectional area of the container is not round, position the ruler into the farthest bottom-corner

10、 of the container.4.3 Adjust the ruler so that it is positioned through the center axis of the container opening.4.4 Measure the dip tube length to within 1 mm or 116 in. If the measurement value is between the whole millimetre or 116thgradient, use the larger value (that is, if measurement is 118.5

11、 mm, use 119 mm; or if measurement is 4-2132 in., use 4-1116 in).1 This test method practice is under the jurisdiction ofASTM Committee F02 on FlexiblePrimary Barrier Packaging and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee F02.30on Mechanical Pump Dispensers.Current edition approved Oct. 1, 2010M
