Significance and Use

This practice will enable calibration of oil spill dispersant application equipment and ensure a desired dosage and uniformity across the swath width.

The data provided by the methods described herein will permit the preparation of a chart relating delivery rate with application vehicle speed, flow meter reading or pump setting so that in actual application, the desired dosage will be achieved.

This practice will ensure that a dispersant application system is functional, capable of delivering a specified dosage, and that major components are operational. This will also ensure that the unit is functioning according to design specifications as detailed in Guide F 1413.

1. Scope

1.1 This practice covers uniform procedures for determining and reporting the dosage rate of oil spill dispersant application equipment.

1.2 This practice is applicable to spray systems employing booms and nozzles and is not fully applicable to other systems such as fire monitors, sonic distributors, or fan-spray guns.

1.3 This practice is applicable to systems for use on ships or boats and helicopters or airplanes.

1.4 This practice is one of four related to dispersant application systems using booms and nozzles. One is on design, one on calibration, one on deposition, and one on the use of the systems. Familiarity with all four standards is recommended.

1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

2. Referenced Documents (purchase separately) The documents listed below are referenced within the subject standard but are not provided as part of the standard.
