Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the U.S. Department of Defense.1. Scope*1.1 This specification (see Note 1) covers grades of fuel oil intended for use in va
3、rious types of fuel-oil-burning equipmentunder various climatic and operating conditions. These grades are described as follows:1.1.1 Grades No. 1 S5000, No. 1 S500, No. 2 S5000, and No. 2 S500 are middle distillate fuels for use in domestic and smallindustrial burners. Grades No. 1 S5000 and No. 1
4、S500 are particularly adapted to vaporizing type burners or where storageconditions require low pour point fuel.1.1.2 Grades B6B20 S500 and B6B20 S5000 are middle distillate fuel/biodiesel blends for use in domestic and smallindustrial burners.1.1.3 Grades No. 4 (Light) and No. 4 are heavy distillat
5、e fuels or middle distillate/residual fuel blends used in commercial/industrial burners equipped for this viscosity range.1.1.4 Grades No. 5 (Light), No. 5 (Heavy), and No. 6 are residual fuels of increasing viscosity and boiling range, used inindustrial burners. Preheating is usually required for h
