33、dapteron the nozzle. Use only adapter shown in Fig. 1 or equivalent.The handle of the upright cleaner should be placed in theposition specified in the instruction book for above-the-floorcleaning.8.6.2 For an upright cleaner with attached hose or attach-ment port, feed the granulated cork through ho

The hose and cleaner must be placed in such a mannerthat their position will allow a uniform pickup from thecontainer (see Fig. 4).8.7 De-energize the cleaner after it will accept no moregranulated cork.8.7.1 For bagless or hard dirt receptacle cleaners, de-energize the cleaner after the gr

Do not include any granulated cork remainingoutside the dirt receptacle in the maximum functional volumemeasurement.8.8 Carefully remove the

Do not include any granulatedcork remaining outside the primary dirt receptacle system,including the delivery tube, in the maximum functional volumemeasurement.8.9 Weigh the primary dirt receptacle and collected granu-lated cork.8.10
38、Calculate the weight of granulated cork collected in theprimary dirt receptacle by subtracting the dirt receptacle andtest dust weight (if added) as described in 8.2.2 and 8.4.2 fromthe full dirt receptacle weight (see 8.9). Calculate the maxi-mum functional volume by dividing the total weight ofcol
39、lected granulated cork by the average weight of granulatedcork per quart or litre in accordance with 8.1.8.11 Record the maximum functional volume in dry quartsor litres to the nearest tenth.8.12 The maximum functional volume for a single test is thenumber of quarts or litres of granulated cork coll

The maximum functional volume of aFIG. 4 Test Set-upF888064given vacuum cleaner is the mean value of three tests meetingthe repeatability statements specified in 9.2. (SeeAppendix X1for example.)9. Precision and Bias9.1 PrecisionFor bagged vacuums, these statemen
41、ts arebased on an interlaboratory test involving twelve laboratoriesand four units. The range of maximum functional volume ofthe units was from 0.90 to 9.4 dry quarts.5For bagless uprightvacuums only, these statements are based on an interlaboratorytest involving twelve laboratories and four units.
42、The range ofmaximum functional volume of the units was from 1.12 to 2.23dry quarts.5,6No data is currently available to make statementsconcerning the precision of other types of bagless vacuums.9.2 Repeatability (single-operator-laboratory)The ex-pected standard deviation of repeatability of the mea

46、ith 95 % confidence, it can be stated that the averageof the measured results from a set of three test runs performedin one laboratory, as compared to a second laboratory, shouldbe considered suspect if the difference between those twovalues is greater than the respective values of the reproducibil-

49、INTERVALX1.1 The most common and ordinarily the best singleestimate of the population mean is simply the arithmeticmean of the measurements. When a sample is taken from apopulation, the sample average will seldom be exactly thesame as the population average; however, it is hoped to befairly close so that the statement of confidence interval willbracket the true mean.X1.2 The following procedure gives an interval which isexpected to bracket , the true mean, 100(1 a) % of the time.This provides a 100(1 a) % confidence level. a is the chanceof bei
