(Main)Fertilizers and liming materials - Sampling and sample preparation - Part 3: Sampling of static heaps
General Information
- Abstract
This European Standard is applicable to the sampling of mineral fertilizers and liming materials supplied or ready for supply to third parties, as a lot or in smaller lots, where such supply or readiness for supply is subject to legal requirements.
This European Standard specifies plans and methods of sampling of a lot of solid fertilizer or liming material, if sampling in motion is not possible, to obtain samples from static bulk heaps in order to ascertain compliance with legal requirements, in particular in relation to the accuracy of compulsory or permitted statutory declarations. The methods specified in this document are not applicable to obtain samples for physical analysis or for the chemical analysis which may be altered by particle granulometric segregation.
This European Standard is applicable to single nutrient fertilizers, to uniform complex fertilizers and to milled or granulated liming materials.
The methods described in this document are not suitable for sampling other types of fertilizer, for example blended fertilizers.
NOTE The term 'fertilizer' is used throughout the body of this European Standard and includes liming materials unless otherwise indicated.
