Specifies essential requirements for glass conical and glass beaker dispensing measures used for pharmaceutical purposes. Provides description of performance tests for checking specifications and for assessing suitability of the measures for AS marking, including detection of strain, resistance to leaching, accuracy of calibration, resistance to thermal shock and resistance to mechanical shock (of packaged measure).

This standard specifies essential requirements for glass conical dispensing measures of capacities 5, 10, 20, 50, 100 and 200 mL and glass beaker dispensing measures of capacities 500 and 1000 mL for pharmaceutical purposes.
