1. Scope

1.1 This standard prescribes the requirements, sampling procedure and test methods for High Flash High Speed Diesel (HFHSD). It is mainly applicable for marine use including use by Indian Navy, Merchant Ships, fishing vessels etc. where a high flash point diesel is required and also for use in non-automotive purposes and in other compression ignition engines as well as stationary engines, designed to run on this type of diesel fuel.

1.2 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety problems associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
