16、ard specifies a method of checking the performance of mechanical devices for sampling fertilizers moving in bulk by comparison of particle size distribution with that obtained by a reference method. It is applicable to any form of mechanical sampling device installed at some point in a bulk-handling
17、 system, providing that either the fertilizer passes along a conveyor belt, before or after the device, or it is subsequently packed in bags in order that a reference collection can be made. NOTE 1Although the mechanical sampling may be used for the collection of samples for chemical analysis instea
18、d of or as well as for physical testing, any bias will be more easily and economically found by size analysis than by chemical analysis of the nutrients. 2 Normative references The following standards contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this Internation

24、shaking machine 5 General conditions The method of test specified in this International Standard should be carried out using a granular fertilizer. The use of a blended product may introduce additional sources of variation. If only blended fertilizer is available for this test, increments of at leas
25、t200g shall be collected (see6.1.1). It may be necessary to check the variability of the product before carrying out this test method in order to decide whether to take more increments than are specified, or to be able to conduct the test over a shorter period of time. A statistician should be consu
26、lted on the most efficient and economical method of carrying out such a check. The test shall be carried out while at least20t (and preferably not more than100t) of fertilizer passes through the mechanical sampling device. 6 Procedure 6.1 Collection of increments Carry out the operations described i
27、n6.1.1 and6.1.2 concurrently. 6.1.1 Using the mechanical sampling device under test, collect at least50 increments of a suitable size 1)and label them from A 1to A 50 , etc. 1) Information on the minimum mass of an increment is given in ISO/TR7553:1987, Fertilizers Sampling Minimum mass of increment
28、 to be taken to be representative of the total sampling unit. BS5551-2.10:1993 2 BSI 10-1999 6.1.2 Carry out one of the following reference collections. a) If the fertilizer is conveyed by a conveyor belt feeding to, or extracting from, the mechanical sampling device, collect the same number of incr
29、ements as collected in accordance with6.1.1 by stopping the conveyor belt as specified in ISO3963. If possible, synchronize the taking of the increments by the device under test with the taking of increments by the reference method, so that corresponding increments are taken from the same part of th
30、e fertilizer bed (see7.2). For example, if the reference sample is taken after the sample taken by the mechanical sampling device, it may be possible to see the gap in the fertilizer bed on the conveyor belt. b) Collect the same number of full bags as the number of increments specified in6.1.1, from
31、 the same tonnage of fertilizer, at intervals corresponding as closely as possible to the time intervals at which increments are taken in accordance with6.1.1. Label the reference increments or bags R 1to R 50 , etc. If necessary, reduce the size of the increments, or the quantities of fertilizers t
32、aken in bags, to approximately the same size as those collected in6.1.1, by the method specified in ISO7742. 6.2 Preparation of samples Combine the increments into equal groups to give at least10 individual samples taken by the same method (6.1.1 and6.1.2). The groups shall be formed of consecutive
33、increments, for example A 1toA 5 , A 6to A 10 , . . ., A 46to A 50 , etc. Mix each of the individual samples thoroughly, then, proceeding in accordance with ISO7742 using the rotary sample divider (4.1), reduce each sample to a suitable mass (200g to250g) for particle-size analysis. 6.3 Analysis of
34、samples Carry out a particle-size analysis on each of the reduced samples, obtained as described in6.2, by the method described in ISO8397 using four or five sieves from the set (4.3), chosen to suit the fertilizer used in the test. Use the same sieves for the analysis of each reduced sample. Record
35、 the percentages of fertilizer retained on each sieve and the percentage passing through the sieve with the smallest aperture. 7 Expression of results 7.1 General case where the increments taken by the two methods do not correspond exactly to each other For each series of n reduced samples, calculat
36、e the mean and the standard deviation for the percentage of fertilizer retained successively on each of the sieves and the percentage passing through the sieve with the smallest aperture size used. For each successive test sieve, calculate the value of the statistic t by means of the formula where R
37、efer to the statistical tables in ISO2602 for the significance of the values of t obtained with 2(n 1) degrees of freedom. 7.2 Special cases where the increments taken by the two methods correspond exactly to each other For each pair of reduced samples, calculate the difference between the percentag
38、es of fertilizer retained on each sieve in turn and the percentage passing through the sieve of smallest aperture size used. Calculate the mean and the standard deviation s dof these differences for each test sieve in turn and for the undersize fraction, and calculate the value of the statistic t by
39、 means of the formula Refer to the statistical tables in ISO3301 for the significance of the values of t obtained with (n 1) degrees of freedom. 8 Interpretation of results The interpretation of the individual results depends on the precision that is both acceptable and practically feasible. It is t
40、o be expected that the most significant bias will be shown by the results for the percentages of fertilizer retained on the sieve of largest aperture size and passing through the sieve of smallest aperture size used for the test, and the least significant bias by the results for the intermediate sie
41、ves.and s A are the mean and the standard deviation for the reduced samples obtained using the device (6.1.1);and s R are the mean and the standard deviation for the reduced samples obtained using the reference method(6.1.2). x A x R dBS5551-2.10:1993 BSI 10-1999 3 A mechanical sampling device shall
42、 be rejected if any of the values of t for the percentages of fertilizer retained on the sieve of largest aperture size and the percentages of fertilizer passing through the sieve of smallest aperture size are significant at the95% confidence level. The device shall be accepted as being without bias
43、 if all the values of t are not significant at the95% confidence level. In other cases, e.g. where one of the values of t is significant at the95% confidence level, indicating the possibility of bias, the tests should be repeated on a larger number of samples. NOTE 2As tests of this sort, requiring
44、larger numbers of samples, are tedious and costly to carry out, it is recommended that a statistician be consulted before further tests are carried out. Additional information on the performance of the tested device can be obtained by comparing the variances and obtained in7.1 using the F- test as d
45、efined in ISO3534. In the special case (7.2), and may be calculated in the normal way from the individual results. If a significantly larger variance is obtained for the tested mechanical device than for the reference method, this implies that the device is not reliable. s A 2 s R 2 s A 2 s R 24 bla
