4、ical Committee Prfung von flssigen Kraftstoffen und Heizlenof the Fachausschuss Minerall- und Brennstoffnormung of the Normenausschuss Materialprfung(Materials Testing Standards Committee).It should be borne in mind that the ignition temperature of flammable substances is not a physico-chemicalconst

5、ant but depends on the prevailing conditions in a particular case. However, since the method ofmeasurement makes it possible to grade the ignitability of flammable liquids and gases exposed to hotsurfaces, the standard does provide a basis for establishing appropriate safety measures for flame-proof

6、electrical and nonelectrical equipment.In the case of mixtures, particularly of oils, further ignitions of the sample material introduced into the ignitionvessel may be observed even at temperatures below the ignition temperature (determined as specified inthis standard) if air gets into the vessel

7、after introducing the sample. This post-ignition temperature maybe more than 100 K lower than the ignition temperature determined. For safety reasons, a check is alwaysto be made as to whether there is a post-ignition temperature 1 when determining the ignition temperature.AmendmentsThis standard di

9、n temperature of flammable liquids and gases,and of petroleum products and their mixtures at temperatures between 75 C and 650 C. The ignitiontemperature is a measure of the tendency of flammable substances to ignite in contact with hot bodies whenmixed with air and makes it possible to classify the

The flask is heated in an electric furnace and it is observed whether ignition takes place at the prevailingtemperature. Finally, any vapor

17、izable components left in the flask are blown out with air.The lowest ignition temperature is determined from a series of ignition tests in which temperature and samplesize are varied. The ignition temperature is then reported as the result of a selection from the lowest valuesobtained in a number o

18、f test series.6 SamplingSamples shall be collected as specified in DIN 51750-1 and DIN 51750-2. In the case of nonhomogeneoussubstances, measures shall be taken to prevent the composition of the sample being substantially altered byevaporation prior to the test since any change in the composition of

This is recommendedfor enabling the processes in the ignition vessel to be reliably observed from the side.7.10 Additional cover plate, fitted with ignition vessel and thermocouple, kept as a replacement.

38、This willmake it easier to perform several consecutive tests.8 Procedure8.1 Transferring the sample to the ignition vessel8.1.1 Transfer liquid samples with a pipette or viscous liquids having a dynamic viscosity of more than50 mPas with an injection syringe in a rapid but still readily countable se

39、quence of drops to the ignition vessel.Cool samples having an initial boiling point of less than 60 C as well as the pipette or the injection syringe toat least 30 C below the boiling point before the transfer. Protect the samples and the equipment fromatmospheric moisture while doing this.8.1.2 Col

40、lect gaseous samples only from the vapour space of the sample container and inject them as followsinto the ignition vessel: first remove an aliquot of the sample from the sample container, if necessary via apressure reducer, through the side attachment connection using a piston-operated pump and exp

41、el it via theelbow situated outside the ignition vessel. Once all the lines and the elbow have been filled with the gas undertest by flushing several times, transfer the elbow to the position shown in figure 4 and force the required quantityof the gas under test into the ignition vessel at a flow ra

42、te of about 25 ml/s.8.2 Preliminary testFirst make a rough preliminary test of the ignition temperature by heating the ignition vessel at a rate of 3 Cto 5 C/min, introducing five drops of liquid or 50 ml of the gaseous substance into the vessel every time thetemperature rises about 20 C. Determine

43、whether ignition occurs at each temperature. Always clean the vesselby blowing it out using a hand-operated bulb pump before introducing new sample material. The temperatureat which ignition is first observed under these conditions shall be regarded as the initial temperature for the maintest.8.3 Ma

44、in test8.3.1 Lowest value of first test seriesStarting at the initial temperature for the main test, introduce the sample in the same quantity as for thepreliminary test into the ignition vessel, lowering the temperature in steps of 5 C until a temperature is reachedat which, for the first time, no

45、ignition occurs. Then continue the ignition tests by varying the sample size at thistemperature.If ignition occurs in this process, repeat the ignition test after lowering the temperature of the ignition vessela further 5 C and record the ignition delay and the amount of substance introduced. In thi

46、s way, establish thetemperature that does not result in ignition for any of the quantities of sample material used. Now performfurther tests between this temperature and a temperature 5 C higher, altering the temperature and the samplesize introduced in small quantities. In doing this, it is advisab

47、le to start from the higher temperature and varythe quantity found most favourable at the next highest temperature by small amounts at every temperaturestage (reduced by about 2 C).The lowest temperature at which ignition is still observed under these conditions shall be taken as the lowestvalue of

48、the first test series.8.3.2 Lowest value of main testThe lowest value of the first test series may be affected by residues in a frequently used ignition vessel and shallconsequently not be regarded as a final result. The final lowest value shall be determined by a second test seriesat the end of the

49、 main test in the temperature range of the lowest value of the first test series using a fresh, cleanignition vessel or a used ignition vessel dried after carefully removing any impurities from the inside walls bywashing with water, if necessary after using acid or other solvents. In addition, after every ignition test, theignition vessel shall be cleaned with the bulb pump. The slight cooling of the vessel due to blowing cold air inshall be allowed to correct itself before starting the next ignition test.8.4 Repeating the testPerform further test seri
