ASTM D 1533:2020

1.1 This test method covers the measurement of water present in insulating liquids by coulometric Karl Fischer titration. This test method is used commonly for test specimens below 100% relative saturation of water in oil. The coulometric test method is known for its high degree of sensitivity (typically 10 µg H 2 O). This test method requires the use of equipment specifically designed for coulometric titration. 1.2 This test method recommends the use of commercially available coulometric Karl Fischer titrators and reagents. 1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard. 1.4 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, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. For specific precautionary statements see 8.1 and A2.1 . 1.5 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
