ASTM D1533-00(2005)

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 g H2O). 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 the standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.
