1、Designation:D675610(Reapproved 2015)Standard Test Method forDetermination of the Red Dye Concentration and Estimationof the ASTM Color of Diesel Fuel and Heating Oil Using aPortable Visible Spectrophotometer1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D6756;the number immediately following t
2、he designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This test method covers the de
3、termination of the red dyeconcentration of diesel fuel and heating oil and the estimationof the ASTM color of undyed and red-dyed diesel fuel andheating oil.The test method is appropriate for use with dieselfuel and heating oil of Grades 1 and 2 described in Specifica-tions D396,D975,D2880 and D3699
4、.Red dye concentrationsare determined at levels equivalent to 0.1 mg L to 20 mg L ofSolvent Red 26 in samples withASTM colors ranging from 0.5to 5.The ASTM color of the base fuel of red-dyed sampleswith concentration levels equivalent to 0.1 mg L to 20 mg Lof Solvent Red 26 is estimated for the ASTM
5、 color range from0.5 to 5.The ASTM color of undyed samples is estimated overthe ASTM color range of 0.5 to 5.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard.No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety conce
