FOREWORD
This Indian Standard (Second Revision) was adopted by the Bureau of .Indian Standards, after the draft finalized
by the Compressors, EUowersand Exhausters Sectional Committee had been approved by the Mechanical Engineering
Division Council.
This standard was first published in 1969 and subsequently revised in 1985. This second revision incorporates
Amendments No. 1 to 4 and other changes which were felt necessa~ as a result of experience gained in testing of
positive displacement type compressors and exhausters.
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 or analyses shall be rounded off in accordance with IS 2: 1960 Rules for
rounding off numerical values (revise o.The number of significant places retained in the rounded off value should be
same as that of the specified value in this standard,
