NOTE -Punch plug diameter is given only for the guidance of can manufacturers and should not be considered for inspection purposes.

*This trade *ize is being given here because the market is currently more familiar with it. When the trade becomes familiar with metric nomenclature, the trade size will be deleted.

trhis deviation shall not be confused with mnmifacturing tolerances. The deviation is not a manufacturing tolerance but IS given to allow different sizes of punch plug to be used with a limited range.

11.1.1 The tins may also be marked with the ISI Certification Mark.

NOTE -The use of the IS1 Certification Mark is governed by the provisions of the Indian Standards Institution ( Certification Marks ) Act and the Rules and Regulations made thereunder. The ISI Mark. on products covered by an Indian Standard conveys the assurance that they have been produced to comply with the requirements of that standard under a well-defined system of ins ection, testing and quality control which is devised and supervised by IS1 an 1 operated by the producer. IS1 marked products are also continuously checked by IS1 for conformity to that rtandard as a further safeguard. Details of conditions under which a licence for the use of the IS1 Certification Mark may be granted to manufacturers or processors, may be obtained from the Indian Standards Institution.

12. INFORMATION TO BE SUPPLIED BY THE PURCHASER

12.1 Appendix C sets out information which the purchaser should specify in his enquiry and order.

APPENDIX A

( Clause 2.1.2 )

DETERMINATION OF GROSS LIDDED CAPACITY .

Gross lidded capacity shall be determined by the following procedure:

a) Drill two 8 mm diameter holes in the bottom of the can adjacent to one another and remove the burrs.

b) Fit all the closure components (just as though the can had been filled ), being careful to ensure that none is omitted. Ensure that the closure is correctly driven home. Weigh the closed, empty can in grams ( ml ).

c) With the closed can tilt@ slightly, fill it through one of the holes with water at a temperature of 2O”C, using a narrow jet. When water first runs out of the second hole, complete filling is ensured by closing the holes with the fingers, gently shaking the can, removing the fingers from the holes and completing the filling. Carefully remove all surface water.

NOTE - An alternative method of filling the closed can is as follows:

D$i\l_two 8 mm diameter holes in the bottom of the can, diametrically opposite one another and each as close as possible to thr circl!mference of the bottom Immerse the can bottom upwarda. in a buckrt or tank of clean water at room temperature. Tilt slightly to dispel anv residual air pocket. Withdraw the can vertically and carefully remove all surface water.

9

IS t 1407 - 1980

d) Weigh the filled can in grams ( ml ). The difference between the two weighings ( ms - ml ) represents the capacity of the can in millilitres.

e) Report the value obtained to the nearest millilitre rounding down to the nearest whole millilitre if the decimal fraction is below 0.5 and up to the nearest whole millilitre if the decimal fraction is O-5 or greater.

APPENDIX ( Clause 10.1 )

LEAKAGE TEST

The leakage test shall be carried out as follows:

a) Take the can without its closure and place over the open end a rubber-faced sealing plate equipped with the means of introduc- ing air into the can and a pressure gauge capable of measuring 15 kPa.

b) Pump air into the can until the gauge reads 15 kPa and immerse the can in water until it is just below the surface of the liquid.

c) Leave the can in the water for 15 seconds and examine for leakage. The presence of any leakage is indicated by a steady stream of bubbles.

APPENDIX C ( Clause 12.1 )

INFORMATION TO BE SUPPLIED BY THE PURCHASER

The purchaser should supply the following information with his enquiry and order:

4 W 4 4

The nominal capacity of the can required ( see 3.1 ).

The type of seam treatment required ( SCG 6.2 ).

The type of closure required ( see 7.1 ).

If a handle is required and the location of the bail ears ( see 8.1 ).

4 Particular internal and/or external finishes required ( see 9.1 ).

f 1 Any special marking requirements ( see Il.1 ).

g> Any particular requirements not covered by this specification.
