7、orrespond to the reference standard when testedunder the same conditions.ENGINEERING MATERIAL SPECIFICATIONWSS-M14P10-BWP 3948-b Page 2 of 43.3 CONDITIONING AND TEST CONDITIONSAll test values indicated herein are based on material conditionedin a controlled atmosphere of 23 +/- 2 C and 50 +/- 5 % re
8、lativehumidity for not less than 24 h prior to testing and tested underthe same conditions unless otherwise specified.3.4 Shall be of such composition that it meets all the requirementsdescribed in this specification and shall be in a form capable ofbeing used as packaged.3.5 Must dissolve and remov
9、e deposits of varnish, gum and greas e fromthe automatic choke and carburetor linkage of an automotive enginewithout any detrimental effect upon engine components.3.6 Shall not have any detrimental effects on the metal, plastic,rubber or gasket material of the carburetor system.3.7 Provisions of thi
10、s specification are applicable when the cleaner isused according to labeling directions, unless other wise stated.Precautionary notes, such as the detrimental effect on paintedsurfaces, etc., involved in the use of the material should beclearly stated on the product label.3.8 Must be reasonably safe
11、 to apply and must meet all federal, stateand local regulations. The material must be formulated to minimizehealth hazards to the individual due to the toxic or otherwiseinjurious ingredients.3.9 Must be capable of storage without any detrimental effect for anextended period of time. Supplier shall
12、furnish all necessaryinformation on types of material required for packaging and on thestorage life of the material in each of the product packagessupplied. For any particular size package of container for theproduct, the supplier shall furnish the information on safe storagepractice and recommendat
13、ions as to max and min ambient temperaturesand direct sun load conditions at which the product may be storedwithout any adverse effect. For all aerosol containers, thesupplier shall furnish all pertinent information on pressures andpropellants an any precautions involved in storing, handling anduse.
14、3.10 CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL PROPERTIESSpecific chemical and physical properties are not specified herein,but an Engineering Quality Control Supplement will be issued tocover each approved material. The selected engineering approvedsource shall furnish appropriate chemical and physical propertiesalong
15、 with the production tolerance limits that apply to thematerial(s) upon which approval was given. The agreed upon valuesand limits will be issued to Quality Control by the affectedproduct engineering office. These values will then be used byQuality Control for ongoing quality verifications. The Qual
16、ityControl Supplement is an integral requirement of thisspecification. If more than one source supplies material to thisspecification, a Quality Control Supplement will be issued for eachspecific approved material.ENGINEERING MATERIAL SPECIFICATIONWSS-M14P10-BWP 3948-b Page 3 of 43.11 LABELING3.11.1
17、 Provisions of the specification are applicable whenmaterial is used according to labeling directions.
