Die Prüfung der Eigenschaften des zugesetzten Motorenöls fällt nicht in den Anwendungsbereich dieses Doku
ments.
ANMERKUNG Für die Zwecke dieses Dokuments wird zur Angabe des Massenanteils einer Substanz der Ausdruck „%(m/m)“ und für den Volumenanteil einer Substanz der Ausdruck „%(V/V)“ verwendet.

Essences pour petits moteurs à combustion interne - Exigences et méthodes d'essai

Ce document spécifie les exigences et les méthodes d’essai pour l’essence utilisée comme carburant dans les petits moteurs.
Le présent document spécifie deux types d’essence à faible teneur en aromatiques et en soufre : une pour les moteurs à quatre temps à lubrification séparée et une, mélangée à un composant lubrifiant pour les moteurs à lubrification mixte.
La vérification des propriétés de l’huile-moteur ajoutée n’est pas visée par le présent document.
NOTE Aux fins du présent document, les termes « % (m/m) » et « % (V/V) » sont utilisés pour représenter respectivement la fraction massique et la fraction volumique.

Introduction
This document is intended to provide a quality standard for petrol fuels for small engines with the aim of
reducing emissions for industrial safety and environmental reasons and extending the lifetime of devices.
Petrol fuels from an alkylate production process as specified in this document are mainly composed of
paraffinic hydrocarbons, contain only small amounts of olefins and are substantially free of aromatic
compounds, especially benzene. They are oxygen free, low in sulfur and are mainly used for small engines
(chain saws, mowing machines etc.) requiring pure petrol fuels or petrol fuels with an admixture of
engine oil depending on the design of the engine. Typically these fuels are produced in alkylation units
but other production methods are possible.
This document describes both a petrol fuel for externally lubricated four-stroke engines and a petrol fuel
for mixture-lubricated engines containing a lubricating oil component.
