This standard specifies a method for the determination of the filter blocking tendency (FBT) and filterability of middle distillate fuel oils and non-petroleum liquid fuels such as biodiesel, where the end use demands an exceptional degree of cleanliness. The method covers 3 procedures and associated filter types, and is applicable to fuels within the viscosity range of 1,5 mm2/s to 6,0 mm2/s at 40 °C.Tamson
