Standard Practice for Field Sampling of Aerospace Fluids in Containers

SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
Samples obtained by use of this practice are intended for processing in accordance with Practice F 311, Test Method D 4898, and Test Method F 314, and other chemical or physical methods of analysis.
SCOPE
1.1 This practice covers field sampling of fluids from hermetically sealed containers and other fluid containers of 55-gal (208-L) volume maximum. It may be utilized at manufacturing, storage, or use levels for obtaining representative fluid samples for chemical, physical, or particulate matter determinations.
1.2 Use of this practice depends upon variables such as fluid toxicity, restrictive fluid odors, fluid flammability, etc. It is suitable for most hydraulic fluids; however, care should be exercised in determining compatibility before use.
1.3 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.
1.4 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 hazard statement, see 6.5.1.
