1.1 本试验方法为试验方法提供了一种替代方法 E871 ，用于测定颗粒木质燃料的水分。颗粒木燃料在术语中定义 E1126 . 1.2 以国际单位制表示的值应被视为标准值。本标准不包括其他计量单位。 1.3 本标准并不旨在解决与其使用相关的所有安全问题（如果有的话）。本标准的使用者有责任在使用前建立适当的安全、健康和环境实践，并确定监管限制的适用性。 1.4 本国际标准是根据世界贸易组织技术性贸易壁垒委员会发布的《关于制定国际标准、指南和建议的原则的决定》中确立的国际公认的标准化原则制定的。 =====意义和用途====== 5.1 该测试方法可在几分钟内快速测定颗粒木质燃料中的水分。标准方法，试验方法 E871 ，至少需要18小时。这种方法适用于对卡车运送的水分进行抽查的情况，在这种情况下，需要快速指示运送的木材的水分。

1.1 This test method provides an alternative method to Test Method E871 , for the determination of the moisture of particulate wood fuels. Particulate wood fuels are defined in Terminology E1126 . 1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard. 1.3 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. 1.4 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. ====== Significance And Use ====== 5.1 This test method provides a rapid determination for moisture in particulate wood fuels in several minutes. The standard method, Test Method E871 , requires a minimum of 18 h. This method is applicable to situations such as the spot-check of the moisture delivered by truck where a quick indication of the moisture of wood delivered is desirable.
