23、. Preparation of Apparatus7.1 Wash the apparatus thoroughly in a solution of liquiddetergent and hot water and rinse with hot tap water (Note 3).Rinse with filtered isopropyl alcohol to remove the water; thenrinse twice with filtered solvent.NOTE 3Distilled or deionized water shall be used in areas

24、wherehardness or contamination increase the blank count over the allowablelevel.7.2 Sample Bottle PreparationRepeat the procedure of7.1 for both the sample bottles and caps, then allow them todrip dry. Place a piece of plastic film that has been rinsed withfiltered liquid over the mouth of the bottl

25、e. Hold the film whilescrewing on the cap to prevent the film from rotating.NOTE 4It is important to hold the film when applying and removingthe cap to prevent serration.8. Funnel Calibration8.1 Disperse a small quantity of pigment into 100 mL ofliquid in a glass bottle. Prepare for a filtration as

26、described in9.1. Filter the suspension through the membrane filter andallow to dry. Release the vacuum and remove the membranefilter. Place the membrane on a flat surface and measure thepigment stain at three diameters 0, 45 and 90, with a verniercaliper to the nearest 0.1 mm.8.2 Average the three m

27、easurements and calculate the areaas follows:Area 5pD2/4 (1)8.3 Mark the funnel to allow identification with calculatedarea. Rinse the filter funnel three times with clean liquid toremove remaining pigment from the funnel surface.9. Procedure9.1 Blank Analysis Filtration:9.1.1 Remove a membrane from

28、 the container and rinsewith filtered liquid. Place the membrane on the support, lowerthe funnel, and secure with the holding device. Cover thefunnel.9.1.2 Place an amount of filtered liquid equal to the amountof fluid used in the routine sample filtration in a sample bottleand agitate. Remove the c

29、over and pour the contents of thebottle into the funnel. Place approximately 50 mL of rinseliquid into the bottle and agitate. Pour rinse liquid into thefunnel and cover.9.1.3 Turn on the vacuum and allow the liquid to filter untilapproximately one third remains. Lift the cover and carefullywash dow

30、n the funnel walls with rinse liquid (Note 5). Replacethe cover and filter until the membrane is dry. Remove theholding device and funnel (see Note 6 and Note 7), then turnoff the vacuum immediately. Remove the membrane using theforceps and place it in a petri dish labeled “Blank.” The usermay choos

31、e to subtract the blank from his sample counts, ormay establish a maximum standard for particles in the blank.NOTE 5When the fluid filtration rate is excessive, the vacuum shouldbe released to allow adequate rinsing of the funnel walls.NOTE 6Do not slide the funnel during this operation.8“Reagent Ch

33、peia.”9Material conforming to USP XVII, 1965, p. 995 is suitable.F 311 97 (2002)2NOTE 7When filtration is completed the rate of repressurization shallbe such that no fluid agitation shall occur which could re-wet the filtermembrane.9.2 Sample Filtration:9.2.1 Repeat the procedure described in 9.1.1.

34、9.2.2 Thoroughly agitate the sample bottle (Note 8), andthen remove the cap.NOTE 8Other containers may be substituted providing they areidentified in the results. The sample bottle will of necessity remain thestandard container.9.2.3 Immediately remove the funnel cover, pour the samplecontents into

35、the funnel, and recover. Place approximately 50mL of rinse liquid in the bottle, recap, and agitate. Pour therinse liquid into the funnel and cover.NOTE 9Where a filtration time is required as for military hydraulicfluids, apply suction of 47 to 57 kPa (356 to 436 mm Hg) before rinsing,and record th

36、e time required to filter the specimen. The bottle is thenrinsed twice into the funnel as described.9.2.4 Turn on the vacuum and allow the sample to filter untilone third remains. Lift the cover and carefully wash the funnelwalls with rinse liquid (Note 5). Replace the cover and filteruntil the memb

37、rane is dry. Remove the cover, holding device,and funnel, then release the vacuum immediately. Using theforceps, transfer the membrane filter to the petri dish. Label thepetri dish giving the sample volume and identification. Thefilter is now ready for particulate contamination analysis.9.2.5 For pe

38、rmanent storage, required on military hydraulicfluids, sandwich the membrane between clean glass slideshinged together with transparent tape and seal the remainingsides with tape.10.
