1、Designation: D 4189 07An American National StandardStandard Test Method forSilt Density Index (SDI) of Water1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 4189; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of la

2、st revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of the siltdensity index (SDI) of water. This test method can be used toindic

3、ate the quantity of particulate matter in water and isapplicable to relatively low (276 kPa (40 psi).7.3 Measure the temperature of the water.7.4 Open the membrane filter holder and place a 0.45-mmembrane filter (47 mm in diameter) on the support plate ofthe holder. Some filter holders include a foa

4、m support pad,which should be used. Place the filter grid side up. Handle themembrane filter only with dull tweezers to avoid puncturing.Avoid touching the membrane filter with the fingers.NOTE 1Other membrane filter sizes, that is, 25 mm or 90 mmdiameter, can be used.NOTE 2Record the manufacturer o

5、f the membrane filter and themanufacturers identification for the membrane filter.7.5 Make sure the O-ring is in good condition and properlyplaced. Replace the top half of the filter holder and closeloosely.7.6 Bleed out trapped air by cracking the ball valve. Closethe valve and tighten the filter h

Leave the valve open for continued flow.NOTE 3Time (ti) to collect 500 mL should be within6 10 % of thetime to collect 500 mL using nonplugging reference wa

7、ter at the samewater temperature. The nonplugging reference water can be obtained byfiltering distilled water through a 0.2-m pore size membrane filter.NOTE 4If tiis less than 90 % of the nonplugging time, the filter maybe cracked and a new filter should be used. If tiis more than 110 % of thenonplu

8、gging time, then a smaller sample size, that is, 250 mL or 100 mLshould be used.NOTE 5The 500-mL sample size is based on a 47-mm diameter filter.If a different filter size is used, adjust the sample size in direct proportionto the filter area.7.8 Measure and record the times to collect additional500

9、-mL (Note 6) volumes of sample, starting the collection at5, 10, and 15 min of total elapsed flow time. Measure the watertemperature and check the pressure as each sample is collected(Note 7 and Note 8).NOTE 6If the initial size was not 500 mL, use the same sample sizeas used in 7.7.NOTE 7The pressu

10、re must remain at 207 6 7 kPa (306 1 psi)throughout the test.NOTE 8The water temperature must remain constant (61C) through-out the test. This is necessary because flow rate changes by about 3 %/C.7.9 After completion of the test, the membrane filter may beretained for future reference.8. Calculatio

If % P30exceeds this value, use a shorter time for T; that is, 5 or 10-minmeasurements in 7.8.If%P30exceeds 75 % after 5 min, other testmethods should be used to analyze for particulate matt

Report9.1 Report the following information:9.1.1 The SDI, with a subscript indicating the total elapsedflow time (T) in minutes,9.1.2 The water temperature before and after the test, and9.1.3 The manufacturer of the 0.45-m membrane filterused for the test, as well as the manufacturers identifi

Precision and Bias310.1 The interlaboratory test was performed by nine opera-tors from five laboratories using test waters of their choice,whose SDI values varied from 0.4 to 15. Waters used includedRO permeate, deionized water, tap water, and undefinedprocess water

15、. The pooled single operator precision is 0.43.10.2 Only pooled single operator precision was determinedfor this test method. The test method is very sensitive to bothquantity and size of suspended particles, which contribute tothe plugging of the membrane filter. Maintenance of theintegrity of the

16、samples cannot be guaranteed through prepa-ration of the bulk mix, subsampling for testing, shipping, andholding. Moreover, approximately 5 gal of sample are required3Supporting data have been filed at ASTM International Headquarters and maybe obtained by requesting Research Report RR: D19 1151.FIG.
