The test m
27、ethod is not suitable for use with recognized explosives, gunpowder, dynamite, or substances or mixtures of substances which may, under some circumstances, behave in a similar manner. Where any doubt exists about the existence of a hazard due to explosive properties, an indication may be obtained by
28、 placing a very small quantity of the dust in question on the heated surface of the apparatus prescribed in IEC 1241-2-11), heated to 400 C. The test for explosivity will not always reveal the explosive nature of a dust so that a “fail to danger” situation could arise. NOTEPrecautions should be take
29、n to safeguard the health of personnel conducting the tests against the risk of fire, explosion and/or the effects, including toxic effects, of combustion. This test method is applicable to the construction and application of electrical apparatus for use in the presence of combustible dust. 1 Scope
30、This standard specifies a method of test to determine, by application of a d.c. voltage, the electrical resistivity of a layer of dust. It is intended to be used in the design, construction, testing, and application of electrical apparatus for use in the presence of combustible dust. The test method
31、 is not suitable for use with recognized explosives or substances having explosive properties. 2 Normative references The following normative documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this standard. At the time of publication, the editions indicated

All normative documents are subject to revision, and parties to agreements based on this standard are encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the most recent editions of the normative documents indicated below.

34、rticles in the atmosphere which settle out under their own weight, but which may remain suspended in air for some time NOTEThis definition includes what are defined in ISO 4225 as “dust” and “grit”. 3.2 conductive dust dust with electrical resistivity equal to or less than 103 7.m 3.3 non-conductive
35、 dust dust with electrical resistivity greater than 103 7.m 3.4 electrical resistivity minimum value of the electrical resistance of a dust layer measured between electrodes spaced at unit distance apart, and each having unit area in contact with the dust NOTEFor the purpose of this standard, electr
36、ical resistivity is measured in ohm metre. 4 Test apparatus Figure 1 and Figure 2 give details for the construction of the test apparatus. The test cell (see Figure 1) is of open construction, and consists of two stainless steel bars with nominal dimensions: length (W) 100 mm, height (H) 10 mm, brea
37、dth (B) 20 mm to 40 mm. These bars are placed at a nominal distance apart of (L) 10 mm on a base with a thickness between 5 mm and 10 mm. NOTEGlass or polytetrafluorethylene (PTFE) have been found to be suitable materials for the base. Two glass bars, also with a nominal height of 10 mm, are placed
38、across the ends of the electrodes to keep the dust layer in place. Figure 2 illustrates an example of a suitable electrical circuit for making the resistivity measurement. It contains a 10 k7 resistor to restrict the breakdown current to a maximum value of 0,2 A at a maximum supply voltage of 2 000

40、 Uncontrolled Copy, (c) BSI EN 61241-2-2:1995 4 BSI 10-1999 The current-to-voltage converter has six ranges to deal with the various values of supply voltage and dust resistivity. A voltage inverter is present to provide a positive output. All resistors are 5 %, 0,5 W high-stability carbon-film type
41、. 5 Test sample The test sample shall be homogeneous and representative of the dust received for testing. When dust is received, it should be put in a closed vessel until tested, or it should be conditioned, or it should be tested directly, and the moisture content measured at the same time and repo
42、rted. The sample of dust to be tested shall, in general, be able to pass through a woven metal wire cloth, or a square hole perforated plate test sieve with a nominal size aperture of 71 4m (supplementary size, see ISO 565). If it is required to test coarser dust, a test sieve with a nominal size of
43、 aperture up to 500 4m may be used. State the nominal size of aperture of the sieve used in the report of the test. State the moisture content of the dust sample as tested in the report of the test, and describe the method of measurement. State in the test report any apparent changes in the properti
44、es of the dust, for example moisture content or particle shape, resulting from the preparation of the test sample, for example in sieving. 6 Procedure 6.1 Preliminary measurement Measure the resistance Ro of the empty test cell with the two glass bars in position. 6.2 Measurement of resistance Pour
45、a weighed quantity of the test sample into the test cell. Remove excess dust by running a straight-edge along the top of the stainless steel electrodes. Collect and weigh the excess. Calculate the mass of dust in the test cell. Measure the resistance of the filled test cell Rs with the following val
46、ues of d.c. voltage applied: 110, 220, 300, 500, 1 000, 1 500, 2 000 V Apply each value of voltage for at least 10 s, and longer if polarization is evident. The same sample of dust in the test cell may be used for all the tests at any one of the values of voltage. 6.3 Calculation of resistivity Gene
47、rally, Ro is greater than 10 Rs, and the resistivity of the dust is calculated from the equation = 0,001 Rs H W/L If Ro is less than 10 Rs, the resistivity is calculated from the equation = 0,001 Rs Ro/Ro Rs H W/L Calculate the resistivity for each value of the applied voltage. 7 Test report The tes
48、t report shall include the results of the measurements, the name, source and chemical description (if not implicit in the name) of the dust tested, the particle size and moisture content of the test sample, and the date and identification number of the test. Report the mass of the dust in the test c
49、ell, and the ambient temperature at the time of the test. The report shall state that the determination of electrical resistivity of the dust has been carried out in accordance with this standard. where is the resistivity in 7.m Rois the resistance of empty test cell in 7; Rsis the resistance of the filled test cell in 7; His the height of the electrode in mm; Wis the length of the electrode in mm; Lis the space between electrodes in mm.
