Terminology3.1 Definitions:3.1.1 digital contact thermome

18、ter (DCT), nanan electronic device consisting of a digital display and associated temperaturesensing probe.3.1.1.1 DiscussionThis device consists of a temperature sensor connected to a measuring instrument; this instrument measures the temperature-dependent quantity of the sensor, computes the tempe

19、rature from the measured quantity, and provides a digital output. This digitaloutput goes to a digital display and/or recording device that may be internal or external to the device. These devices are sometimesreferred to as “digital thermometers.”3.1.1.2 DiscussionPET is an acronym for portable ele

20、ctronic thermometers, a subset of digital contact thermometers (DCT).4. Summary of Test Method4.1 Kinematic viscosity and percent change is determined at low temperature using apparatus defined in Test Method D445 andSpecifications D446 at time intervals of 3 h and 72 h following an initial measurem

21、ent at 35 min.5. Significance and Use5.1 Aircraft turbine lubricants, upon standing at low temperatures for prolonged periods of time, may show an increase inkinematic viscosity. This increase may cause lubrication problems in aircraft engines. Thus, this test method is used to ensure thatthe kinema

22、tic viscosity does not exceed the maximum kinematic viscosity in certain specifications for aircraft turbine lubricants.6. Apparatus6.1 Viscometers, drying tubes, low-temperature bath, thermometer, timer, secondary viscosity standard, filter, and cleaningsupplies are described in detail in Test Meth

23、od D445.6.2 ViscometerThe viscometer shall meet the requirements of Test Method D445 and Specifications D446 and be of the typein which the sample can be rerun without cleaning the viscometer. Suitable holders should be used. For convenience it isrecommended that the viscometer size be chosen to kee

24、p the efflux time between 200 s and 1000 s.NOTE 1Consult Specifications D446 regarding calibration constant correction for the actual test temperature when using Specifications D446viscometers that are not suspended level types.6.3 Drying TubesFit the viscometer openings with drying tubes filled wit

25、h indicating silica gel, using cotton at top and bottomto hold the loosely packed desiccant in place. Provide a cross-connection on the viscometer side of the drying tubes (which canbe closed by a pinch clamp or stopcock while liquid is being drawn into the efflux bulb) so that the restriction to ai

26、r flow will notcause error. Replace the silica gel when a lavender color is noticeable.6.4 Viscosity Temperature BathThe constant-temperature bath must be capable of holding several viscometers at once. It musthave adequate stirring of the liquid medium (Note 2) and balance between heat losses such

27、that the bath temperature can bemaintained at the required temperature 60.03 C.NOTE 2Isopropanol or other clear, low-freezing point liquid may be used as a bath liquid.6.5 Temperature Measuring DeviceUse either a digital contact thermometer as described in 6.5.2 with equal or better accuracyor a cal

28、ibrated ASTM Kinematic Viscosity Test Thermometer such as 73C (40 C) or 74C or 43C (51 C) conforming to therequirements as prescribed in Specification E1 which have an accuracy after correction of 60.03 C or better. The ASTM 74Cthermometer has a specification between 55.4 C and 52.6 C but is availab

29、le from some suppliers with the scale expanded tocover 51 C. The 43C thermometer is only graduated in 0.1 C increments so interpretation at midpoints between the lines maybe required.6.5.1 When using liquid-in-glass thermometers, use a magnifying device to read the thermometer to the nearest 15 divi

30、sion (forexample, 0.02 C on thermometers graduated in 0.1 C increments) to ensure that the required test temperature and temperaturecontrol capabilities are met.3 Available from Standardization Documents Order Desk, DODSSP, Bldg. 4, Section D, 700 Robbins Ave., Philadelphia, PA 19111-5098, http:/dod

If the corrected temperature reading error is greater than the temperature tolerance, then the thermometer must berecalibrated.6.5.2 W

32、hen using a digital contact thermometer (DCT), the following requirements shall apply:Criteria Minimum RequirementsDCT E2877 Class ADisplay resolution 0.01 C, recommended 0.001 CDisplay accuracy 30 mK (0.03 C) for combined probe andsensorSensor type RTD, such as a PRT or thermistorDrift less than 10

33、 mK (0.01 C) per yearResponse time less than or equal to 6 s as defined in Speci-fication E1137Linearity 10 mK over range of intended useCalibration Report The DCT shall have a report of temperaturecalibration traceable to a national calibrationor metrology standards body issued by acompetent calibr

34、ation laboratory with demon-strated competency in temperature calibra-tion. An ISO 17025 accredited laboratory withtemperature calibration in its accreditationscope would meet this requirement.Calibration Data The calibration report shall include at least 3calibration temperatures at least 5 C apart

35、which are appropriate for its intended use.6.5.2.1 For a constant temperature bath employed, the DCT probe shall be immersed by more than its minimum immersiondepth in a constant temperature bath so that the center of the probes sensing region is at the same level as the lower half of theworking cap

36、illary provided the probes minimum immersion depth is met and is no less than indicated on the calibration certificate.The end of the probe sheath shall not extend past the bottom of the viscometer. It is preferable for the center of the sensing elementto be located at the same level as the lower ha

37、lf of the working capillary as long as the minimum immersion requirements are met.NOTE 3With respect to DCT probe immersion depth, a procedure is available in Test Methods E644, Section 7 (Minimum Immersion Length Test),for determining the minimum depth. With respect to an ice bath, Practice E563 pr

38、ovides guidance on the preparation of an ice bath, however variancefrom the specific steps is permitted provided preparation is consistent as it is being used to track change in calibration.6.5.2.2 Verify the DCT calibration at least annually. The probe shall be recalibrated when the check value dif

39、fers by more than0.01 C from the last probe calibration. Verification can be accomplished with the use of a water triple point cell, an ice bath, orother suitable constant temperature device which has a known temperature value of suitable precision. See Practice E563, GuideE1750, and Guide E2593 for

40、 more information regarding checking calibrations.6.5.2.3 In the case of constant temperature baths used in instruments for automatic viscosity determinations, the user is tocontact the instrument manufacturer for the correct DCT that has performance equivalence to that described here.6.6 Timing Dev

41、iceUse any timing device, spring-wound or digital, that is capable of taking readings with a discrimination of0.1 s or better and has an accuracy within 60.07 % (see Annex A3 of Test Method D445) of the reading when tested over theminimum and maximum intervals of expected flow times.6.6.1 Timing dev

42、ices powered by alternating electric current may be used if the current frequency is controlled to an accuracyof 0.05 % or better. Alternating currents, as provided by some public power systems, are intermittently rather than continuouslycontrolled. When used to actuate electrical timing devices, su

43、ch control can cause large errors in kinematic viscosity flow timemeasurements.6.7 Secondary Viscosity Standards.7. Procedure for Cleaning Viscometers and Filter Screen7.1 Apply air pressure or suction to the viscometer to remove any previous test specimen. Allow the viscometer to drain for 5min.7.1
