Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide
federation of national Standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work
of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Esch member body interested in a subject for
which a technical committee has been established has the right to be
represented on that committee. International organizations, govern-
mental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the
work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical
Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are
circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an Inter-
national Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member
bodies casting a vote.
International Standard ISO 3308 was prepared by Technical Committee
ISO/TC 126, Tobacco and tobacco products.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition
(ISO 3308:1986), which has been technically revised as a result of an
extensive examination of the Smoking machine Performance by mem-
bers of CORESTA.
Major changes have also been made: subclause 4.8 now specifies the
use of a perforated disc (washer) in Order that all types of cigarettes
may be smoked; subclause 4.10 (specification of the ashtray Position);
and the inclusion of a new annex A which sets out the conditions for the
control of the ambient air flow around cigarettes in Smoking machines.
As a result of the changes, members of CORESTA have found increased
accuracy and precision and have been able to provide data for incor-
poration in ISO 4387:1991, Cigarettes - Determination of total and
nicotine-free dry particulate matter using a routine analytical Smoking
machine.
Annex A forms an inte gral part of this International Standard. Annexes
B and C are for inform ation only.

Avant-propos
L’ISO (Organisation internationale de normalisation) est une fédération
mondiale d‘organismes nationaux de normalisation (comités membres
de I’ISO). L’élaboration des Normes internationales est en général
confiée aux comités techniques de I’ISO. Chaque comité membre inté-
ressé par une étude a le droit de faire partie du comité technique créé
à cet effet. Les organisations internationales, gouvernementales et non
gouvernementales, en liaison avec I‘ISO participent également aux tra-
vaux. L’ISO collabore étroitement avec ia Commission électrotechnique
internationale (CEI) en ce qui concerne la normalisation électrotech-
nique.
Les projets de Normes internationales adoptés par les comités techni-
ques sont soumis aux comités membres pour vote. Leur publication
comme Normes internationales requiert l’approbation de 75 % au moins
des comités membres votants.
La Norme internationale IS0 3308 a été élaborée par le comité techni-
que ISOITC 126, Tabac et produits du tabac.
Cette troisième édition annule et remplace la deuxième édition
(IS0 3308:1986), qui a été entièrement révisée sur le plan technique et
rédactionnel, à la suite des importantes études menées par le CORESTA
sur les performances des machines à fumer.
Des modifications importantes ont également été faites au paragraphe
4.8, qui prescrit l‘emploi d‘un disque perforé (washer) estimé utile pour
pouvoir fumer tous les types de cigarettes. L’annexe A donne les
conditions estimées nécessaires pour le contrôle du flux d’air ambiant
autour des cigarettes dans les machines à fumer.
Une étude en commun réalisée par les membres du CORESTA a mis
en évidence que les modifications apportées améliorent la précision et
a permis d‘introduire des informations à ce sujet dans I’ISO 4387:1991,
Cigarettes - Détermination de la matière particulaire totale et de la ma-
tière anhydre et exempte de nicotine au moyen d‘une machine à
fumer analytique de routine.
