This criterion was adopted for lubricants (sec ISO 6743/0). In cer- tain circumstances, this criterion may not be appropriate; in such cases, a classification may be based on the type of product. This criterion was adopted for the fuels, which were classified firstly by type and secondly by end use (see ISO 8216/0). 3.2 The principle of this classification is based on assigning a prefix letter which characterizes the main classes of Petroleum products. In this classification System, products are designated in a uniform manner. The complete designation consists of - the initials ISO; - the class of the Petroleum product or related product, designated by a letter (see the table in clause 4). This prefix letter shall be clearly separated from the other Symbols; - the category, designated by a group of letters (1 to 4), the first letter of which always identifies the family. Any following letters taken separately may or may not have a significance of their own but will be defined, in each case, in the International Standard giving the detailed classification of the family or category concerned; - numbers, which may be added to complete the designation. Their significance will be defined in the rele- vant International Standard. The code shall be presented in the following general form : ISO - CLASS - CATEGORY - NUMBERS (if any) or in the abbreviated form : CLASS - CATEGORY - NUMBERS (if any). 1 Copyright International Organization for Standardization Provided by IHS under license with ISO Licensee=NASA Technical Standards 1/9972545001 Not for Resale, 04/26/2007 21:23:57 MDTNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS -,-,- ISO 8681-1986 (El 3.3 Examples derived from particular classifications are given below : Example I : ISO 0 I ISO viscosity grade Lubricants Slideways G = famiiy of Iubricants for slideways Example 2 : ISO El I CATEGORY HL Refined mineral oils with improved anti-rust and anti-oxidation properties H= family of lubricants for hydraulic Systems ISO viscosity grade Lubricants Example 3 : ISO 0 CATEGORY DST Grade designation Low flash Point Petroleum distillate gas-oil type D = family of distillate fuels Fuels Example 4 : , * ISO Il CATEGORY RMB Maximum viscosity (in mm*/s) (cSt) at 100 OC Residual marine fuel-oil R = family of residual f uel-oils Fuels 2 Copyright International Organization for Standardization Provided by IHS under license with ISO Licensee=NASA Technical Standards 1/9972545001 Not for Resale, 04/26/2007 21:23:57 MDTNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS -,-,- ISO 8681-1986 (El 4 General classification of Petroleum products and related products t Ciass F S L w B f Designation Fuels Solvents and raw materials for the Chemical industry Lubricants, industrial oils and related products Waxes Bitr Imen 3 Copyright International Organization for Standardization Provided by IHS under license with ISO Licensee=NASA Technical Standards 1/9972545001 Not for Resale, 04/26/2007 21:23:57 MDTNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS -,-,- This page intentionally left blank Copyright International Organization for Standardization Provided by IHS under license with ISO Licensee=NASA Technical Standards 1/9972545001 Not for Resale, 04/26/2007 21:23:57 MDTNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS -,-,- This page intentionally left blank Copyright International Organization for Standardization Provided by IHS under license with ISO Licensee=NASA Technical Standards 1/9972545001 Not for Resale, 04/26/2007 21:23:57 MDTNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS -,-,- This page intentionally left blank Copyright International Organization for Standardization Provided by IHS under license with ISO Licensee=NASA Technical Standards 1/9972545001 Not for Resale, 04/26/2007 21:23:57 MDTNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS -,-,-
