1、Designation: D 3089 97 (Reapproved 2008)Standard Practice forDetermining the A-D Dimension of Aerosol Valve Dip Tubes1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 3089; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the y

2、ear of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This practice covers the rapid determination of the A-Ddimension defined as the centerline dimension from the t

3、opplane of the valve mounting cup curl to the far end of the diptube.2See Fig. 1.1.2 This practice is limited to valves with 1-in. (25.4-mm)mounting cups.1.3 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematicalconversions to SI units t

Significance and Use2.1 Using dip tubes of the correct length is helpful byenabling the user to discharge essentially all the product fromthe dispenser, preventing the tube from becoming jammed intoan incorrect position as a res

5、ult of gassing, preventing the(non-dimpled) valve cup from excessively protruding from thecan plug and perhaps causing production problems at thecrimper or gasser/crimper, and preventing the tube frombottoming on the flat base of some aluminum cans in such away that a seal is made that will act to l

6、imit or stop the entryof product into the tube when the valve is actuated.2.2 Dip tubes that extend fully to the bottom of thedispenser, without excessive distortion, can also aid in retain-ing their connection to the valve body tailpiece, which may beimportant if the aerosol content exerts a very s

7、ignificantswelling action upon the dip tube plastic.2.3 The choice of A-D dimension is influenced by a numberof factors. These factors include:2.3.1 Tube curvature, which may vary considerably betweentubes.2.3.2 Variation of valve cup and valve cup gasket thickness.2.3.3 Elevation or suppression of

8、the valve pedestal (thustop end of the dip tube) upon crimping.2.3.4 Elevation of valve pedestal during hot-tanking, onlypartly diminished upon subsequent cooling.2.3.5 Swelling (or shrinking) action of the product on thedip tube.3.

Calibration and Standardization4.1 Ensure that the reference plane against which the top ofthe valve cup re
