Applies to the reversible process achieved by the PCM encoder/decoder system that transforms two audio signals into one PCM signal for compatibility, with either 525 line/ 60 field or 625 line/50 field television system. Establishes the signal format for the PCM encoder decoder for reproducing audio signals in PCM form on a consumer video cassette system. Ensures standardized system operation…
The "Think Canadian" program, originally known as "Shop
Canadian", has the following objective, i.e., to increase
consumer awareness of the value of Canadian-made goods.
Performance Testing of Solid Fuel Burning Appliances
1. Scope
1.1
This Standard prescribes a method for determining heat outputs, appliance
efficiencies, emission levels and composition, and flue gas flow rates for
wood-fired appliances with a closed fire chamber.
1.2
For the purpose of this Standard, a wood-fired appliance with a closed fire
chamber is one in which the air-fuel ratio is less than 30:1 by weight during
the burning of at…

Sampling procedures for inspection by attributes — Part 2: Sampling plans indexed by limiting qualit...
Can be used when the switching rules in ISO 2859-1 are not applied. Indexing is by a preferred series of limiting qualities with a consumer's risk usually below 10 % and always below 13 %. Procedures are provided to cater for two situations: Procedure A to be used when the supplier and the consumer both wish to regard the lot in isolation (shall be used unless there is a specific instruction…
Fruit and vegetable products — Determination of formic acid content — Part 2: Routine method
The method consists in quantitative entraining by steam of the acid present in a test portion, determing of the amount of iodine equivalent to the amount of bromine consumed by the acid in the distillate, by titration with sodium thiosulfate standard volumetric solution.
Guide for packaging — Recommendations to comply with consumer needs and protection
Packaging is a product of consumer interest, the cost of which is borne indirectly by the consumer. Standardization of packaging should, therefore, address itself to such factors as safety, health, fitness of purpose, comfort and reliability, as well as such general needs as protection of the environment and energy conservation. When drafting a standard relating to packaging, the requirements set…
