35、 (ICP-AES)SAMPLING3. Sampling3.1 Accurate sampling, whether of the complete contents oronly parts thereof, is extremely important from the standpointof evaluation of the quality of the product sampled. Obviously,careless sampling procedure or contamination in the samplingequipment will result in a s
36、ample that is not truly representa-tive. This generally leads to erroneous conclusions concerningquality and incurs loss of the time, effort, and expense involvedin securing, transporting, and testing the sample.3.2 Sample the insulating oil in accordance with PracticesD923, D2759 and D3305 as appro
37、priate.PHYSICAL PROPERTIES4. Aniline Point4.1 ScopeThis test method covers the determination ofthe aniline point of petroleum products, provided that theaniline point is below the bubble point and above the solidifi-cation point of the aniline-sample mixture.4.2 Summary of Test Method:4.2.1 Test Met
38、hod D611Equal volumes of aniline and testspecimen or aniline and test specimen plus n-heptane areplaced in a tube and mixed mechanically. The mixture is heatedat a controlled rate until the two phases become miscible. Themixture is then cooled at a controlled rate, and the temperatureat which the tw
39、o phases separate is recorded as the anilinepoint.4.3 Significance and UseThe aniline point of an insulat-ing oil indicates the solvency of the oil for some materials thatare in contact with the oil. A higher aniline point implies alower aromaticity and a lower degree of solvency for somematerials.5
40、. Coefficient of Thermal Expansion5.1 ScopeThis test method covers the determination ofthe coefficient of thermal expansion of electrical insulatingliquids of petroleum origin.5.2 Definition:5.2.1 coeffcient of thermal expansionthe change in vol-ume per unit volume per degree change in temperature.
41、It iscommonly stated as the average coefficient over a giventemperature range.5.3 Summary of Test MethodThe specific gravity of insu-lating oils is determined at two temperatures below 90C andseparated by not less than 5C nor more than 14C. Testmethods used may be D287, D1217, D1298, or D1481. Theca
42、lculation of average coefficient of thermal expansion overthis temperature range is given in Test Method D1903.5.4 Significance and UseA knowledge of the coefficientof expansion of a liquid is essential to compute the requiredsize of a container to accommodate a volume of liquid over thefull tempera
43、ture range to which it will be subjected. It is alsoused to compute the volume of void space that would exist inan inelastic device filled with the liquid after the liquid hascooled to a lower temperature.6. Color6.1 ScopeThis test method covers the visual determina-tion of color of a wide variety o
44、f liquid petroleum products,including mineral insulating oils.6.2 Summary of Test Method:6.2.1 Test Method D1500The test specimen is placed in aglass sample jar (an ordinary 125-mL test specimen bottle issatisfactory for routine tests). The color of the sample bytransmitted light is compared with a
45、series of tinted glassstandards. The glass standard matching the sample is selected,or if an exact match is not possible, the next darker glass isselected. The results are reported numerically on a scale of 0.5to 8.0.6.3 SignificanceA low color number is an essential re-quirement for inspection of a
46、ssembled apparatus in a tank. Anincrease in the color number during service is an indicator ofdeterioration or contamination of the insulating oil.7. Examination7.1 Scope:7.1.1 Both visual examination and qualitative infrared ab-sorption are described in this section. The test methods are:7.1.2 Test
47、 Method D1524This is a visual examination ofmineral insulating oils that have been used in transformers, oilcircuit breakers, or other electrical apparatus as insulating orcooling media, or both. This test is intended for use in the field.7.1.3 Test Method D2144The infrared absorption from2.5 to 25
48、m (4000 to 667 cm1) is recorded as a means of (a)establishing continuity by comparison with the spectra ofD117 103previous shipments by the same supplier, (b) for the detectionof some types of contaminants, (c) for the identification of oilsin storage or service. This test method is not intended for
49、 thedetermination of the various constituents of an oil.7.2 Summary of Test Methods:7.2.1 Test Method D1524Estimate the color of the oil byuse of an oil comparator, matching the oil test specimen withtinted glass color standards. Note the presence of cloudiness,particles of insulation, metal corrosion products, or otherundesirable suspended materials in the oil.7.2.2 Test Methods D2144The infrared spectrum is re-corded from 2.5 to 25 m (4000 to 667 cm1) either as theabsorption spectrum itself, or as the differential between thetest specimen and reference oi
