In this first revision the two Partshave been combined as a single document superseding Parts 1 and 2 which are now withdrawn. M

9、inor changes have been made; in particular, the requirement for the boil test has been modified to remove a discrepancy left after an amendment to the first editions. Other changes are mainly editorial, for example, to take into account the revision in1974 of BS1309, and to make clear that the use o

10、f suitable fillers during manufacture is not excluded by the requirements of the standard. Certification. Attention is drawn to the certification facilities described on the inside back cover of this standard. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract.

11、 Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations. Summary of pages This document comprises a front cover, an inside front cover, pages i and ii, pages1 to 6, an inside back cover an

12、d a back cover. This standard has been updated (see copyright date) and may have had amendments incorporated.

13、agms of gas meters intended for use with natural gas. Two types of leather are specified. Type 1. E.I. sheepskin leather, manufactured as described in outline inAppendix A. Type 2. Split hide leather, manufactured as described in outline inAppendix B. 2 References The titles of the British Standards

14、 referred to in this standard are listed on page 6. 3 Definitions For the purposes of this British Standard, thedefinitions given in BS2780 apply. 4 Requirements 4.1 pH value. When determined as described in BS1309, the pH value of the finished leather shall be not lower than3.5. 4.2 Iron. When dete

15、rmined by the method described inAppendix C, the iron content of the finished leather at a volatile matter content of14%(m/m), determined as described in BS1309 shall not exceed 5004g (Fe) per gram of leather. 4.3 Shrinkage in boiling water. When the finished leather is tested by the procedure descr

16、ibed inAppendix D, the mean percentage decrease in the diameter of the test piece shall not exceed3.0%. 4.4 Chromium. When determined by either the perchloric acid method or the alkaline fusion method for chromic oxide content described in BS1309, the chromic oxide content of the finished leather at

17、 a volatile matter content of14% (m/m), determined as described in BS1309 shall be not less than2.5% Cr 2 O 3 . 4.5 Thickness 4.5.1 Type 1. The thickness of finished type1 leather, measured by the procedure described in BS3144, and the permissible variation in thickness, shall be subject to agreemen

18、t between the purchaser and the vendor. 4.5.2 Type 2. When determined as described in BS3144, the thickness of the finished type2 leather shall be not less than1.20mm at any point within the area which will form a diaphragm. The difference between the maximum thickness and minimum thickness within t

19、his area shall not exceed0.30mm. Providing that finished type2 leather complies with these requirements, the mean thickness and the tolerance on the thickness shall be the subject of agreement between purchaser and vendor. 5 Marking The finished leather shall be indelibly marked so that the followin

20、g information will appear on each diaphragm. a) Manufacturers name or identification mark. b) Manufacturers batch or lot number. c) “BS 2797 type 1” or “BS 2797 type 2”, asappropriate. NOTEOther information may be added if required. Addition of the date of rettanage is recommended.BS2797:1976 2 BSI

21、12-1999 Appendix A Method of manufacture ofE.I. sheepskin diaphragm leather (type 1) A.1 Raw material Well preserved E.I. tanned Persian sheepskins are used. Skins used are chosen to be of good tannage and free from harmful materials, holes, flaying defects and serious imperfections of fibre structu

22、re. Skins are selected for thickness so that during shaving (seeA.2.1) the thickness is reduced by a minimum. A.2 Tannage A.2.1 Shaving. The flesh side is slightly shaved and the skin is finished to the required thickness (see4.5.1) on the grain side. A.2.2 Retanning. Skins are retanned with basic c

23、hromium sulphate so that the finished leather will meet the requirements of4.4. A.2.3 Inert materials. At an appropriate stage, the manufacturer may incorporate into the leather inert materials (known as “fillers”) which do not prevent the finished leather from complying with the requirements of thi

24、s standard. A.3 Fat-liquoring The leather is treated (fat-liquored) with oil (excluding oil derived from marine animals) and with soap flakes complying with the requirements of BS1912, to yield a finished leather containing3% (m/m) added oil and2% (m/m) added soap both calculated on a basis of14% (m

25、/m) volatile matter in the finished leather. NOTE 1The use of neatsfoot oil is recommended. NOTE 2Bar soap, complying with the requirements of BS1911, is an alternative to soap flakes, provided that the quantity used is adjusted to compensate for any difference in fat content. Appendix B Method of m

26、anufacture of split hide diaphragm leather (type 2) B.1 Raw material The raw material used is good quality vegetable-tanned split hide made from either: a) UK market hides, or b) good quality wet-salted hides of European origin. The split hides are selected so that during shaving (seeB.2.1) no more

27、than0.5mm of the leather need be removed. Hides used are selected so that they are free from harmful material and so that the areas from which the diaphragms will ultimately be cut are free from ticks, holes, healed or partially healed warble holes, brands, score marks and other serious imperfection

28、s of the grain or fibre structure. B.2 Rettanage B.2.1 Shaving. The hides are shaved so that the finished leather complies with the requirements of4.5.2. As a final operation, the leather may be lightly shaved or buffed on the grain side. B.2.2 Retanning. The split hides are retanned with basic chro

29、mium sulphate so that the finished leather will meet the requirements of4.4. B.2.3 Inert materials. At an appropriate stage the manufacturer may incorporate into the leather inert materials (known as “fillers”) which do not prevent the finished leather from complying with the requirements of this st

30、andard. B.3 Fat-liquoring The leather is treated (fat-liquored) with oil (excluding oils derived from marine animals) and with soap flakes complying with the requirements of BS1912, to yield a finished leather containing3% (m/m) added oil and2% (m/m) added soap both calculated on a basis of14% (m/m)

31、 volatile matter in the finished leather. NOTE 1The use of neatsfoot oil is recommended. NOTE 2Bar soap, complying with the requirements of BS 1911, is an alternative to soap flakes, provided that the quantity used is adjusted to compensate for any difference in fat content. Appendix C Procedure for

32、 the determination of iron content C.1 Reagents Use reagents of recognized analytical reagent quality and water complying with the requirements of BS3978. The following reagents are required. C.1.1 Ammonia solution, dilute. Mix ammonia solution (d = 0.880) with an equal volume of water. C.1.2 Hydroc

33、hloric acid, dilute (approximately 6N). Mix concentrated hydrochloric acid (d = 1.18) with an equal volume of water. C.1.3 Potassium thiocyanate solution. 400gperlitre. C.1.4 Standard iron solution (104g Fe per millilitre). Dissolve0.7022g of ammonium ferrous sulphate, (NH 4 ) 2SO 4 .FeSO 4 .6H 2 O,

34、 in water. Add1ml to2ml of concentrated nitric acid and evaporate the solution to dryness on a water bath. Dissolve the residue in10ml of the dilute hydrochloric acid and dilute to1000mlwith water. From this solution prepare a 1+9 dilution 104g of iron (Fe) per millilitre immediately before use.BS27

35、97:1976 BSI 12-1999 3 C.2 Apparatus Usual laboratory apparatus is required and, in particular, the following. C.2.1 Platinum dish, iron-free. C.2.2 Nessler cylinders, 50ml, complying with the requirements ofBS612. C.2.3 Microburette C.2.4 One-mark volumetric flask, 100ml, class B, complying with the

36、 requirements of BS1792. C.3 Procedure Weigh5 0.1g of the leather into the platinum dish and heat it carefully, at the minimum temperature necessary, below500 C, to form an ash free from carbonaceous particles. Take care that at no time does any part of the dish reach a bright red heat. NOTEThe low

37、ignition temperature prevents fusion of alkali salts present. If necessary, to eliminate carbonaceous particles, cool the dish, moisten the ash with a few drops of water, dry carefully and then heat again to a temperature below500 C. Cool the dish, add1ml to2ml of the dilute hydrochloric acid to the

38、 ash and evaporate to dryness on a water bath. Dissolve the residue in1ml to2ml of the dilute hydrochloric acid, dilute with water, boil and filter. Dilute the cooled filtrate to100ml in the volumetric flask. Transfer a10.0ml aliquot portion into a Nessler cylinder, dilute with water, add5ml of the

39、dilute hydrochloric acid then add5ml of the potassium thiocyanate solution. Dilute to50ml with water andmix. Into a second Nessler cylinder containing5ml of thedilute hydrochloric acid,5ml of the potassium thiocyanate solution and approximately37ml of water, gradually add standard iron solution from

40、 the microburette until the colour of the solutions in the two Nessler cylinders matches when the solutions are viewed vertically from above with the cylinders held over a white surface. Note the volume of standard iron solution added. C.4 Expression of result Calculate the result as follows. Iron c

41、ontent (4g Fe per gram) = 1 720 V/(100 x) where V is the volume, in millilitres, of standard iron solution used; x is the percentage volatile matter content of the leather, determined as described in BS1309.
