25、an Standard, at least the following parameters need to be specified in the relevant device standard: ? Components to be tested; ? Test method, 1, 2, or 3; ? Number of specimens; ? Climatic conditioning; ? Mounting and orientation of specimens; ? Any deviations from the test procedure chosen; ? Pass/
26、fail criteria 5 General test requirements Unless otherwise specified, the values stated in this European Standard are expressed as nominal values. Except for temperature limits, values which are not stated as maxima or minima shall be subject to a limit deviation of + 5%. EN 13274-4:2001 (E) 5 Unles
27、s otherwise specified, the ambient temperature for testing shall be between 16 C and 32 C and the temperature limits shall be subject to a limit deviation of + 1 C. 6 Six burner static test: Method 1 6.1 Principle The specimen is exposed to a flame from an array of six burners for (5 0,5) s at (950
28、50) C. 6.2 Test rig The test rig consists mainly of a propane cylinder with flow control device, flow meter, pressure gauge, flash back arrester and six propane burners which are adjustable in height. Figure 1 shows a schematic diagram of the apparatus and the top view of the arrangements of the six
29、 burners. The purity of the propane shall be a minimum of 95%. NOTEA ”TEKLU” burner has been found to be suitable, and information on a source of supply can be obtained from the Secretariat of CEN/TC79. 6.3 Procedure Mount the specimen such that the external parts have direct exposure to the flame.
30、Before lighting the burners, position the specimen centrally above the array of six burners and individually adjust the height of each burner such that the distance between the burner tip and specimen is 250 mm. Figure 2 shows the adjustment of the burner tips for one example of specimen. With the s
31、pecimen removed from above the burners, fully open the propane control valve on each of the six burners. Initially close the air control valve on each of the six burners. Ignite the burners and adjust the propane cylinder output regulator to a pressure, such that a flow meter in the main propane sup
32、ply line indicates a total flow to all six burners of (21 0,5) litres/min, propane. NOTEA typical pressure range has been found to be 0,3 to 1,25 bar. Adjust the flame temperature at a height of 250 mm above the burner tips in the centre of the flame, above one burner, to a temperature of (950 50) C
33、, using a mineral insulated thermocouple probe of 1.5 mm diameter (see Figure 1). The flame temperature at a height of 250 mm above all burners shall be within the limits specified. In order to achieve the correct temperature it may be necessary to adjust the air control valve on each burner to an o
34、ptimum and to shield the whole test rig from the effect of external air flows. Expose the specimen to the flames for (5 0,5) s. Where components of the specimen are positioned such that they are not exposed directly to the flame, the test shall be repeated with the same, or with other samples, as ap
35、propriate, oriented in the appropriate position. Observe and report whether or not the specimen continues to burn or presents any additional hazard to the wearer. 7 Single burner static test: Method 2 7.1 Principle The specimen is exposed to a flame at a temperature of (800 50) C for (12 0,5) s, suc
36、h that the centre of the flame impinges on the edge of the specimen under test. 7.2 Test rig The test rig consists mainly of a propane cylinder with flow control device, pressure gauge, flashback arrester, specimen support and burner (see Figure 3). The burner shall either be in accordance with 6.2
37、or with ISO 6941:1987/AMD 1:1992. The purity of the propane shall be a minimum of 95 %. EN 13274-4:2001 (E) 6 7.3 Procedure Mount the material or component to be tested on the support such that it is orientated horizontally above the burner. Adjust the height of the burner tip to the lowest part of
38、the horizontal specimen at a distance of (20 2) mm. The edge of the specimen shall be positioned directly over the burner during the test. An example is shown in Figure 3. With the specimen removed from above the burner, ignite the burner and adjust the flame height with the propane flow control val
39、ve to (40 4) mm. Check that these settings give a flame temperature of (800 50) C at a point (20 2) mm above the burner tip, measured with a mineral insulated thermocouple probe, 1,5 mm diameter (see Figure 4). In order to achieve the correct flame temperature at the correct flame height, it may be
40、necessary to shield the whole test rig from the effect of external airflows. Expose the specimen to the flame for (12 0,5) s ensuring that the centre of flame impinges on the edge of the specimen. Observe and report whether or not the specimen continues to burn or presents any additional hazard to t
41、he wearer. 8 Single burner moving specimen test: Method 3 8.1 Principle The specimen under test is mounted such that it may be passed through a flame at a temperature of (800 50) C at a speed of (60 5) mm/s. 8.2 Test rig The test rig consists mainly of a propane cylinder with flow control device, pr
42、essure gauge, flash back arrester, specimen support, rotation motor with speed controller, and burner (see Figure 4). The burner shall be either be in accordance with 6.2 or with ISO 6941:1987/AMD 1:1992. The purity of the propane shall be a minimum of 95 %. 8.3 Procedure Mount the component on the
43、specimen support, and adjust the position such that the specimen under test passes directly over the tip of the burner when the support is rotated. With the specimen directly over the burner, adjust the height between the tip of the burner and the lowest part of the specimen to (20 2) mm. Adjust the
44、 rotation speed of the motor such that the linear speed of the specimen, measured at the burner is (60 5) mm/s. With the specimen removed from above the burner, ignite the burner and adjust the flame height with the propane flow control valve to (40 4) mm. Check that these settings give a flame temp
45、erature of (800 50) C at a point (20 2) mm above the burner tip, measured with a mineral insulated thermocouple probe, 1,5 mm diameter (see Figure 4). In order to achieve the correct flame temperature at the correct flame height it may be necessary to shield the whole test rig from the effect of ext
46、ernal airflows. Pass the specimen once through the flame. Repeat the test with the specimen mounted in a different orientation or with other specimen so that an assessment can be made of all materials or components, as specified by the relevant device standard. It is important that no part of the sp
47、ecimen passes through the flame more than once. Observe and report whether or not the specimen continues to burn or presents any additional hazard to the wearer.
