It is a revision of BS1752:1963 which is withdrawn. T

9、he principal differences between this edition of BS1752 and the 1963 edition concern the porosity grading and designation. Whilst all the designations have changed, only some of the limits of pore size have changed. To assist purchasers of laboratory sintered filters, the changes are shown graphical

10、ly in a National appendix. Terminology and conventions. The text of the International Standard has been approved as suitable for publication as a British Standard without deviation. Some terminology and certain conventions are not identical with those used in British Standards; attention is drawn es

11、pecially to the following. The comma has been used as a decimal marker. In British Standards it is current practice to use a full point on the baseline as the decimal marker. Wherever the words “International Standard” appear, referring to this standard, they should be read as “British Standard”. Ad

12、ditional information. The unit of pressure used in this standard is the bar. For conversion to SI units, the equation 1bar = 100kPa should be used. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct

13、application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations.

15、ted) filters by the determination of pore size index. It is applicable to laboratory filters made of glass, vitreous silica, ceramics, metals and plastic materials. Test methods are included in Annex B and Annex C for the determination of air permeability and uniformity of pore size, but these chara

16、cteristics do not form part of the requirements of this International Standard. 2 Definitions 2.1 sintered (fritted) filter a filter produced from porous material formed by the thermal bonding of particles 2.2 pore size index a characteristic of a filter related to pore diameter 2.3 permeability a c

17、haracteristic of a filter related to the rate of flow through it under specified conditions 3 Quality Filters shall not shed particles under conditions of normal use and shall withstand a working pressure differential of 1,013 bar applied in the normal direction of use. When tested for pore size ind

18、ex by the method specified inAnnex A, there shall be no evidence of faults in the filter material, or the sealing into the holder. 4 Grading of filters Filters shall be graded according to their pore size index in one of the eight grades specified inTable 1. The designation allotted to each grade co

19、nsists of the upper limit of its pore size index range, expressed in micrometres preceded by the letter “P”. Filters may be provided in certain materials or for special purposes with pore size indexes falling within narrower ranges than those given inTable 1; if so, this should be indicated by stati

20、ng both the minimum and maximum limits of the range. Table 1 Grading of filters 5 Limits for pore size index When the filter is tested in accordance with the method specified inAnnex A, the pore size index shall be within the limits specified inTable 1 for its grade. NOTEIt is recommended that filte

21、rs be manufactured with pore size indexes near the centre of the range of the appropriate grade. 6 Uniformity test If it is required to assess the uniformity of the filter over its working area, the method of test described in Annex B should be used. 7 Permeability If it is required to measure the p

22、ermeability of the filter, it should be tested in accordance with the method described inAnnex C, and should not havea permeability less than the value specified inTable 2 for its grade.

24、 30 198 402 498BS1752:1983 2 BSI 11-1999 Annex A Method for determination of pore size index A.0 This method of test measures the pressure at which the first air bubble breaks away from the filter under specified conditions. This pressure is then used to calculate the equivalent capillary diameter.

25、Thus, the test does not constitute a measurement of pore size but provides an indication of pore diameter, which is related to the maximum size of particle that the filter will pass. The retentivity of a filter is also affected by other factors. A.1 Ensure that the filter is thoroughly clean, especi

26、ally that it is free from detergents, and wettable by the test liquid. Table 3 lists some of the test liquids that have been found suitable for various filter materials, and that have the desirable properties of low or zero flammability and low toxicity. In the case of filters made of materials such

27、 as glass, vitreous silica, ceramics, platinum, bronze or stainless steel, the choice of the test liquid is wide, in relation to both wettability and non-reactivity with the filter material. In the case of plastic materials, reactivity is an important consideration, and certain liquids may cause par

28、tial dissolution or swelling. In order to give an adequate reading on a mercury manometer, it is generally preferable to use water as the test liquid on the coarse filters. There may, however, be important reasons for using one of the liquids of low surface tension on some filters, and in such cases

29、 it is more appropriate to employ a water manometer and make the necessary correction. Examples are 1) polytetrafluoroethylene filters, which are not wetted by water; 2) domed filters, for which excessive pressure on the concave side could cause fracture; 3) fine grade filters, because the pressure

30、necessary when using water may be greater than that the filter can withstand. Table 3 Suitable test liquids A.2 Assemble the filters in a suitable apparatus, for example that illustrated inFigure 1. NOTEIf the filters comprise a fine grade material supported on a coarser grade, the filter characteri

31、stics stated should be those of the finer grade and the filter should be tested in such a way that the bubbles appear at the surface of the finer grade material. Connect an adequate source of clean, dry air, that is supplied at an accurately and finely controlled pressure, for example using a needle

32、 valve (the equations inA.5 are based on the assumption of static conditions in the system). Situate the manometer so as to indicate the actual pressure at the filter. A.3 Cover the filter with a layer of the test liquid, as shallow as is convenient, and ensure that all the pores are impregnated. As

33、suming the usual flat form of filter is used, there should be no excessive variation of hydrostatic head over its working area. If this hydrostatic head is significant, convert its value to the appropriate pressure units, and deduct this pressure from the manometer reading to give the effective pres

34、sure. When a domed filter is being tested, bubbles tend to appear first at the uppermost region of the dome, owing to the varying hydrostatic head. It may be desirable in this case to tilt the filter to bring different regions into the uppermost position, to ascertain a) the point of maximum pore si

35、ze index; b) the general uniformity of the filter (see Annex B). Hollow filters (for example cylindrical) should be supported with the axis horizontal and suitably rotated.

37、his should be avoided.BS1752:1983 BSI 11-1999 3 A.4 Gradually increase the air pressure until the first air bubble breaks away from the surface of the filter. (For hollow filters it is necessary to allow sufficient time to ensure that all free liquid is driven out of the central cavity of the filter

38、.) Read the pressure at the filter from the manometer. Repeat the test, taking the precautions stated above, with the pressure being increased more slowly. If concordant results are obtained the test has been performed satisfactorily. A.5 Calculate the pore size index, d, in micrometres(4m), using e

39、ither of the following formulae a) where 1 is the surface tension, in newtons per metre, of the test liquid; P 1 is the effective pressure, in bars; b) where 2 is the surface tension, in dynes per centimetre, of the test liquid; P 2 is the effective pressure, in millimetres of mercury. NOTE 11bar =

40、10 5N/m 2= 750,24mmHg NOTE 2If a manometer liquid other than mercury is used, the actual reading of the manometer should be converted to bars or millimetres of mercury, as required. NOTE 3The manometer may be calibrated or a graph constructed for a particular test liquid, so that the pore size index

41、 can be read directly. A.6 When the pore size index has been determined, the filter may be left connected to the apparatus and its uniformity checked as described inAnnex B. Annex B Procedure for assessing uniformity of filters B.1 Use the procedure specified inAnnex A for determination of pore size

42、 index. B.2 Following the appearance of the first air bubble, as described inA.4, increase the air pressure until bubbles emerge uniformly over the upper surface and note the new pressure readings. This should correspond to a pore size index not less than the minimum for the grade (seeTable 1). Anne

43、x C Method for determination of air permeability C.0 This method measures the rate of flow of air through a filter under specified conditions. It is related (but not necessarily by simple proportionality) to the rate of liquid flow through the filter, and hence to the speed of filtration. C.1 Ensure

44、 that the filter is thoroughly clean and dry. Assemble the filter in a suitable apparatus, for example that illustrated inFigure 2. Establish a suitable pressure difference P 3(for example1 mbar) across the filter and maintain this during the test. Measure the air flow rate Q by means of a suitable

45、air flow meter, and convert the rate to cubic metres per kilosecond or cubic centimetres per minute, as required. C.2 Determine the effective surface area A of the filter in square metres or square centimetres, as required, making allowance for the part of the filter near the edge which is rendered

46、ineffective by the fixing process. C.3 Calculate the air permeability per millibar pressure difference, expressed in cubic metres persquare metre kilosecond m 3 /(m 2 ks) or cubiccentimetres per square centimetre minutecm 3 /(cm 2 min), as required, from the formula NOTEThe test assumes viscous flow

47、 of air through the filter, and is adequate for the general requirements of laboratory sintered filters. For particular purposes, for example filters required for accurate work in fluid flow, more detailed tests may be required and should be agreed upon by the interested parties. 40 1 P 1 - 30 2 P 2
