FOREWORD
0.1 This
Indian
Standard
( Part II ) ( Revised ) was adopted by the
Indian Standards
Institution
on 20 October
1965, after the draft finalized
by the Solid Mineral Fuels Sectional
Committee
had been approved by
the Chemical Division Council.
0.2 This standard was originally issued in 1953 with a view to prescribing
the procedures
for obtaining
representative
samples of coal and coke for
test purposes.
Since then extensive investigation
was carried out on Indian
coals and Part I of this standard dealing with sampling of coal was revised
in 1964, in the light of the experience gained during the last eleven years.
0.3 Consequent
upon the publication
of IS : 436 ( Part I )-1964*,
an
to
amendment
( Amendment
NO. 3 ) was issued deleting all references
sampling of coal from the original standard.
Also, in view of the adoption
of the metric system, it became imperative
that all dimensions and units
in IS : 436 ( Part II )-1953T be expressed in that system.
This revision has
been undertaken
to incorporate
nearest metric equivalents
to the units
expressed in the fps system.
0.3.1 Statistical investigation
has been undertaken to examine
of coke sampling and the standard will be revised in due course.

sizes of increment
and the total weight of the gross sample given

on the basis of the size grade of coke.

A-2.1.1
Depending upon the size of the gross sample, the alternate-shovel
method ( A-2.2.4 ) followed by quartering
shall be adopted, or only the
method of quartering
(A-2.2.5)
shall be adopted.
The alternate-shovel
method is recommended
for samples weighing about 240 kg or above.
It
should not be adopted for samples weighing less than 60 kg.
A-2.1.2
The two procedures are depicted in Plate 1 and detailed directions are given indicating the method of mixing, the sieve size corresponding
to the weight of the gross sample, and the method of mixing and reduction
to be adopted at various stages.
A-2.1.3
The weights of the samples given in Plate 1 are illustrative.
A
gross sample of any weight may be handled -provided that the procedure
corresponding
to the stage related to the weight is followed and the sieve
sizes indicated in Plate 1 are adopted.
