ASTM D4308-95(2000)e1 - 1.1.2000
 
1. Scope

1.1 This test method applies to the determination of the "rest" electrical conductivity of aviation fuels and other similar low-conductivity hydrocarbon liquids in the range from 0.1 to 2000 pS/m (see 3.2). This test method can be used in the laboratory or in the field.

1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard.

1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. For specific hazard statements, see 7.1.1 and 7.2.
