2.1 For the purpose of this standard, the dcfinitions given in IS : 4240-19677
shall apply.
0.3 While
preparing
the
standard,
assistance
has been derive2 fro% the information
received
from the Fertilizer

0.4 For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement
of this standard
is complied
with, the final value, observed or calculated,
expressing the result of a test, shall be rounded off
in accordance
with IS : 2-1960*.
The number
of significant places retained ii? the rounded off
value should be the same as that of the specified
value in this srandard.
*Rules for rounding off numerical values (recked).
However,
in case of lined casing, thickness of
lining shall depend upon the material of the lining
and the working condition.
In case of mild steel
sheets the minimum
