A method forchecking the accuracy of perforated sieve plates is included asinformation in Appendix X1.NOTE 1Th
4、e perforated-plate sieves covered by this specification areintended for general precision testing. Some industries may require morerestricted specifications for sieves for special testing purposes.NOTE 2For other types of sieves see ASTM Specification E 11 andASTM Specification E 161, for Precision

Thismanual also contains a list of all ASTM published standards on sieveanalysis procedures for specific materials or industries.1.2 This standard
6、does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Responsibility fo
34、r InspectionS1.1 Unless otherwise specified in the contract or purchaseorder, the producer is responsible for the performance of allinspection and test requirements specified herein. Except asotherwise specified in the contract or order, the producer mayuse his own or any other suitable facilities f
35、or the performanceof the inspection and test requirements specified herein, unlessdisapproved by the purchaser. The purchaser shall have theright to perform any of the inspections and tests set forth in thisspecification where such inspections are deemed necessary toensure that material conforms to
36、prescribed requirements.S2. Government ProcurementS2.1 Unless otherwise specified in the contract, the materialshall be packaged in accordance with the suppliers standardpractice which will be acceptable to the carrier at lowest rates.Containers and packing shall comply with the Uniform FreightClass
37、ification rules or National Motor Freight Classificationrules. Marking for shipment of such material shall be inaccordance with Fed. Std. No. 123 for civil agencies, andMIL-STD-129 for military agencies.APPENDIXES(Nonmandatory Information)X1. METHOD OF CHECKING PERFORATED SIEVE PLATESX1.1 In princip
38、le, every aperture in a perforated sieve plateis eligible for inspection, so that the first test is a careful andmethodical visual examination applied to each aperture andcenter. If obvious faults are found, the sieve plate is unaccept-able.X1.2 Check the dimensions of the apertures using anaccurate
39、 steel rule or other suitable means. The use ofcalibrated flat-plug gages or calibrated tapered-pin gages isalso permitted. Since any perforated aperture has an inherenttaper, take care to make all measurements from the side of thesieve plate on which the manufacturer has indicated theaperture size.
40、 The apertures selected for measurements may beover any area of the sieve plate, but shall be those lying alongtwo straight lines at least 100 mm in length and shall includeat least ten apertures. In the case of round apertures, one of thestraight lines selected shall follow a straight line of apert
41、uresand the included angle between the two straight lines shall be60. In the case of square apertures, one of the straight linesselected shall follow a straight line of apertures and theincluded angle shall be 90 if the apertures are arranged withtheir midpoints at the vertices of squares, but shall
42、 be 63 26min if their midpoints are at the vertices of isosceles triangles.If the minimum number of apertures prescribed for checking isnot available along the two straight lines prescribed, check allapertures in the sieve plate.X1.3 At the same time that the aperture dimensions arechecked, also exa
43、mine the center between each of the selectedapertures.X1.4 Check the thickness of the sieve plate using anyreliable procedure.FIG. 2 Arrangement of Square AperturesE 323 80 (2004)3X2. PRESENTATION OF DATAX2.1 Sieve tests should be presented in tabular or graphicalform in terms of the nominal apertur
44、e dimension and thepercentage by weight. For purposes of comparison, the cumu-late percentage undersize will be accepted as standard. Thisdoes not preclude the representation of percentages on indi-vidual sieves, provided the sieve interval is clearly specified asplus one sieve aperture and minus an
45、other, or as between twosieve apertures. Graphical representation may include the useof logarithmic scales, probability paper, and so forth, toemphasize specific characteristics of shape.ASTM International takes no position respecting the validity of any patent rights asserted in connection with any
