1、Designation:F251715Standard Specification forDetermination of Child Resistance of Portable FuelContainers for Consumer Use1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F2517;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the
2、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 specification establishes recognized requirementsfor determining the child resistance of portable gasoline,ker
3、osene,and diesel containers intended for use by consumers.This specification does not cover single-trip prepackagedcontainers.1.1.1“Containers”as defined herein means the receptaclefor gasoline,kerosene,or diesel fuel,including its spouts,retrofit spouts,caps and other closure mechanisms and com-pon
4、ents intended for use by consumers.If any such spout,retrofit spout,cap or other closure mechanism is sold sepa-rately for use with or on portable gasoline,kerosene,or dieselreceptacles,it must be designed to and function in compliancewith this specification when installed on any such receptacle.1.2
5、 This specification includes gas/oil mixtures as com-monly used for two-cycle engines.1.3 Thisspecificationincludessingle-andmulti-compartment containers.1.4 This standard addresses the effectiveness of the childresistance(CR)device only after closure cycling,but does notaddress closure effectivenes
6、s:1.4.1 When at high or low temperatures,1.4.2 After thermal aging of polymers,1.4.3 After exposure to sunlight,1.4.4 After exposure to intended fuels,and1.4.5 After physical abuses,such as drops or impacts.NOTE1Please see Appendix X1 for additional information on theseexemptions.1.5 The values stat
7、ed in inch-pound units are to be regardedas standard.The values given in parentheses are mathematicalconversions to SI units that are provided for information onlyand are not considered standard.1.6 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It
8、 is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:2F852 Specification for Portable Gasoline Containers forConsumer UseF976 Specifica
