1、Designation: D975 13D975 13aStandard Specification forDiesel Fuel Oils1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D975; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses ind
2、icates the year of last reapproval. 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 covers seven grades of diesel fuel oils suitable for v
3、arious types of diesel engines. These grades aredescribed as follows:1.1.1 Grade No. 1-D S15A special-purpose, light middle distillate fuel for use in diesel engine applications requiring a fuelwith 15 ppm sulfur (maximum) and higher volatility than that provided by Grade No. 2-D S15 fuel.21.1.2 Gra

5、iesel engine applications requiring a fuelwith 5000 ppm sulfur (maximum) and higher volatility than that provided by Grade No. 2-D S5000 fuels.1.1.4 Grade No. 2-D S15A general purpose, middle distillate fuel for use in diesel engine applications requiring a fuel with15 ppm sulfur (maximum). It is es

8、 and residual oil, for use in low- and medium-speed dieselengines in applications involving predominantly constant speed and load.NOTE 1A more detailed description of the grades of diesel fuel oils is given in X1.2.NOTE 2The Sxxx designation has been adopted to distinguish grades by sulfur rather th
9、an using words such as “Low Sulfur” as previously becausethe number of sulfur grades is growing and the word descriptions were thought to be not precise. S5000 grades correspond to the so-called “regular” sulfurgrades, the previous No. 1-D and No. 2-D. S500 grades correspond to the previous “Low Sul
10、fur” grades. S15 grades were not in the previous grade systemand are commonly referred to as “Ultra-Low Sulfur” grades or ULSD.1.2 This specification, unless otherwise provided by agreement between the purchaser and the supplier, prescribes the requiredproperties of diesel fuels at the time and plac
11、e of delivery.1.2.1 Nothing in this specification shall preclude observance of federal, state, or local regulations which can be more restrictive.NOTE 3The generation and dissipation of static electricity can create problems in the handling of distillate diesel fuel oils.

38、signated B100.3.1.2 biodiesel blend (BXX), nblend of biodiesel fuel with diesel fuel oils.3.1.2.1 DiscussionIn the abbreviation, BXX, the XX represents the volume percentage of biodiesel fuel in the blend.3.1.3 switch loading, nof liquid fuels, the practice of loading low vapor pressure product (for
39、 example, diesel fuel) into anempty or near-empty fixed or portable container that previously held a high or intermediate vapor pressure product (such asgasoline or solvent) without prior compartment cleaning treatment and inert gas purging; and the reverse procedure where a highvapor pressure produ
40、ct is added to a container that previously held a low vapor pressure product.3.1.3.1 DiscussionSince middle distillate fuels have flash points above 38C, during normal distribution of these fuels, the atmosphere above the fuelsin a container such as a tanker truck, rail car, or barge, is normally be
41、low the lower explosive limit, so there is low risk of fire orexplosion should an electrostatic discharge (spark) occur. However, when the previous load in the compartment was a volatile,flammable fuel such as gasoline, and if some residual fuel vapor or mist remains in the compartment, and the cont
42、ainer has amixture of air and fuel vapor or mist (that is, not purged with an inert gas), then there is a risk that the atmosphere in the containerbeing filled could be in the explosive range creating a hazard should an electrostatic discharge occur.3.2 Definitions of Terms Specific to This Standard

44、 emulsions are included in this definition since neither are homogeneous mixtures or solutions.3.2.1.2 DiscussionExamples of excluded oxygenated materials are alcohols, esters, ethers and triglycerides.3.2.2 S(numerical specification maximum)indicates the maximum sulfur content, in weight ppm (g/g),

47、requirements. These are Grades No. 1-D S15, No. 1-D S500, No. 1-D S5000, No. 2-D S15, No. 2-D S500 and No. 2-D S5000.The seventh grade, No. 4-D, is distinguished from these other grades by many major properties in addition to sulfur (unregulatedmaximum), and therefore is not included in this designa
48、tion system. Thus, Grade No. 4-D does not have the designation S20000as part of its grade name.4. Sampling, Containers, and Sample Handling4.1 It is strongly advised to review all test methods prior to sampling to understand the importance and effects of samplingtechnique, proper containers, and spe
49、cial handling required for each test method.4.2 Correct sampling procedures are critical to obtaining a representative sample of the diesel fuel oil to be tested. Refer toAppendix X2 for recommendations. The recommended procedures or practices provide techniques useful in the proper samplingor handling of diesel fuels.5. Test Methods5.1 The requirements enumerated in this specification shall be determined in accordance with the following methods:5.1.1 Flash PointTest Methods D93, except where other methods are prescribed by law.
