1、Designation:D685517Standard Test Method forDetermination of Turbidity Below 5 NTU in Static Mode1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D6855;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A nu
2、mber in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope*1.1 This test method covers the static determination ofturbidity in water(see 4.1).1.2 This test method is applicable to the measurement ofturbi
3、dities under 5.0 nephelometric turbidity units(NTU).1.3 This test method was tested on municipal drinkingwater,ultra-pure water,and low turbidity samples.It is theusers responsibility to ensure the validity of this test method forwaters of untested matrices.1.4 This test method uses calibration stan
4、dards are definedin NTU values,but other assigned turbidity units are assumedto be equivalent.1.5 This test method assigns traceable reporting units to thetype of respective technology that was used to perform themeasurement.Units are numerically equivalent with respect tothe calibration standard.Fo
