ASTM D 1796 Document Information:
Title
Standard Test Method for Water and Sediment in Fuel Oils by the Centrifuge Method (Laboratory Procedure)
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Dec 1, 2004
Scope:
This test method describes the laboratory determination of water
and sediment in fuel oils in the range from 0 to 30 % volume by
means of the centrifuge procedure.
NOTE 1—With some types of fuel oils such as residual fuel oils
or distillate fuel oils containing residual components, it is
difficult to obtain water or sediment contents with this test
method. When this situation is encountered, Test Method D 95 (API
MPMS Chapter 10.5) or Test Method D 473 (API MPMS
Chapter 10.1) may be used.
NOTE 2—API MPMS Chapter 10.6 (Test Method D 1796) along
with API MPMS Chapter 10.3 (Test Method D 4007) formerly
superseded API Standard 2548.
The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the
standard. The values given in parentheses are for information
only.
This standard does not purport to address all of the safety
concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility
of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and
health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory
limitations prior to use. For a specific precautionary
statement, see 6.1.
