The responsible German body involved in its preparation is Working Committee NA 062-06-32 AA "Anforderungen an flüssige Kraftstoffe" ("Requirements for liquid fuels") at the Standardization Committee for Petroleum, Fuels, Lubricants and Related Products (FAM) at DIN Standards Committee Materials Testing (NMP). This European Standard specifies a test method for the determination of the content of undissolved substances, referred to as total contamination, in middle distillates, in diesel fuels containing up to 30 % (V/V) fatty acid methyl esters (FAME), and in neat FAME. The working range is from 12 mg/kg to 30 mg/kg and it was established in an interlaboratory study by applying EN ISO 4259.
