2、 revision. A number 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 U.S. Department of Defense.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers perforated

A method forchecking the accuracy of perforated sieve plates is included asinformation in Appendix X1.NOTE 1
4、The 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 Specifications E11 and E161.NOTE 3Complete instructions and proce

Except asotherwise specified i
36、n 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 the purchaser. The purchaser shall have theright to perform any of the inspections and tests set forth in thisspecifi
37、cation where such inspections are deemed necessary toensure that material conforms to 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 car
38、rier at lowest rates.Containers and packing shall comply with the Uniform FreightClassification 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(N
39、onmandatory 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 is a careful andmethodical visual examination applied to each aperture andcenter. If obvious faults are found, the sie
40、ve 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-pin gages isalso permitted. Since any perforated aperture has an inherenttaper, take care to make all measurements from
41、 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 those lying alongtwo straight lines at least 4 in. (100 mm) in length and shallinclude at least ten apertures. In the cas
42、e 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 square apertures, one of the straightlines selected shall follow a straight line of apertures and theincluded angle shall
43、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 number of apertures prescribed for checking isnot available along the two straight lines prescribed, check allapertur
44、es in the sieve plate.X1.3 At the same time that the aperture dimensions arechecked, also examine the center between each of the selectedapertures.E323 11 (2016)3X1.4 Check the thickness of the sieve plate using anyreliable procedure.X2. PRESENTATION OF DATAX2.1 Sieve tests should be presented in ta
45、bular 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. Thisdoes not preclude the representation of percentages on indi-vidual sieves provided the sieve interval is cle
46、arly 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 forth, toemphasize specific characteristics of shape.ASTM International takes no position respecting the validity
