1、Designation: E323 09Standard Specification forPerforated-Plate Sieves for Testing Purposes1This standard is issued under the fixed designation E323; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A numbe
2、r in parentheses indicates 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 Department of Defense.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers perforated plate with eitherround
3、 or square apertures, normally mounted in a frame for useas sieves in precision testing in the classification of materialsaccording to designated nominal particle size. A method forchecking the accuracy of perforated sieve plates is included asinformation in Appendix X1.NOTE 1The perforated-plate si
4、eves 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 Specifications E11 and E161.NOTE 3Complete instructions and procedures on the use of tes
5、t sievesare contained in ASTM STP 447, Manual on Test Sieving Methods. Thismanual also contains a list of all ASTM published standards on sieveanalysis procedures for specific materials or industries.1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas the standard. The values given in par
6、entheses are mathemati-cal conversions to SI units that are provided for informationonly and are not considered standard.1.3 This standard 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-p

Responsibility for InspectionS1.1 Unless otherwise specified in the contract or purchaseorder, the producer is r
35、esponsible 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 for the performanceof the inspection and test requirements specified herein unlessdisapproved by
36、 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 prescribed requirements.S2. Government ProcurementS2.1 Unless otherwise specified in the contrac
37、t, 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 FreightClassification rules or National Motor Freight Classificationrules. Marking for shipment of such mate
38、rial 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 principle, every aperture in a perforated sieve plateis eligible for inspection, so that the first test
39、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 steel rule or other suitable means. The use ofcalibrated flat-plug gages or calibrated tapered-p
40、in 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. The apertures selected for measurements may beover any area of the sieve plate, but shall be tho
41、se lying alongtwo straight lines at least 4 in. (100 mm) in length and shallinclude at least ten apertures. In the case of round apertures,one of the straight lines selected shall follow a straight line ofapertures and the included angle between the two straight linesshall be 60. In the case of squa
42、re apertures, one of the straightlines selected 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 be 63 26min if their midpoints are at the vertices of isosceles triangles.If the minimum
43、 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 examine the center between each of the selectedapertures.X1.4 Check the thickness of the sie
44、ve plate using anyreliable procedure.E323 093X2. PRESENTATION OF DATAX2.1 Sieve tests should be presented in tabular or graphicalform in terms of the nominal aperture dimension and thepercentage by weight. For purposes of comparison, the cumu-late percentage undersize will be accepted as standard. T
45、hisdoes not preclude the representation of percentages on indi-vidual sieves provided the sieve interval is clearly specified asplus one sieve aperture and minus another or as between twosieve apertures. Graphical representation may include the useof logarithmic scales, probability paper, and so for
46、th, toemphasize specific characteristics of shape.ASTM International takes no position respecting the validity of any patent rights asserted in connection with any item mentionedin this standard.
