Full Description

1.1This test method covers the determination of the volume of free water and sediment (as a percentage of the sample) that is suspended in the bulk fuel in middle distillate fuels with viscosities in the range of 1.0mm/s to 4.1mm/s at 40C (1.0cSt to 4.1cSt at 104F) and densities in the range of 770kg/m to 900kg/m at 15C.

Note 1:Fuels corresponding to Specification D396 Grades No. 1 and 2, D975 Grades No. 1-D and 2-D, Specification D2880 Grades No. 0-GT, 1-GT and 2-GT, and Specification D3699 Grades No. 1-K and 2-K and similar middle distillate fuels and blendstocks will usually fall in this viscosity and density range. Test Method D1796 is intended for higher viscosity fuel oils.

1.2The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard.
