Biogene Festbrennstoffe - Bestimmung der Länge und des Durchmessers von Pellets (ISO 17829:2015); Deutsche Fassung EN ISO 17829:2015
Overview
This document specifies the methods for the determination of diameter and length of pellets. Concerning the pellet length methods for both determination of the proportion of oversized pellets and for determination of the average length are included. Pellets with a length and diameter outside the specification can cause problems with transportation in screw conveyors, silo outlets, and burner feeding systems. ISO 17225-1, ISO 17225-2, ISO 17225-6, and ISO 17225-8 stipulate dimensions of pellets. This document has been prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 238 "Solid biofuels" in collaboration with Technical Committee CEN/TC 335 "Solid biofuels" the secretariat of which is held by SIS (Sweden). The responsible German committee is Working Committee NA 062-05-82 AA "Feste Biobrennstoffe" ("Solid biofuels") at DIN Standards Committee Materials Testing (NMP).
