The flammability classification of materials is shown in Table 6.1. The selection of material with classific

When making this selection, the electrical ignition of components testing (Section 7) is not necessary. Or, 2. Select a material without a flammability classification and subject
31、the material to the flammability test for the class of material. Or, 3. The complete loudspeaker assembly is to be tested by applying a test flame to each component likely to ignite. Starting with the voice coil and working to each additional component, a flame is to be applied as follows: a) A need
32、le flame per UL1694 is to be applied to the outer perimeter of the lowest point of the voice coil or dust cap of a loudspeaker intended to be mounted vertically. On a loudspeaker intended to be mounted horizontally, the flame is to be applied to the outer perimeter of the voice coil nearest the voic
33、e coil terminal leads. (See 6.1.2.3). b) Working inward from the dust cap of the loudspeaker, the needle flame is to be applied to each additional component most likely to become ignited or possibly propagate flame. (See 6.1.2.3). 4. The electrical components of the loudspeaker assembly can be evalu
34、ated for flammability by subjecting them to the electrical ignition tests in Section 7. 10 Copyright Consumer Electronics Association Provided by IHS under license with CEA Licensee=IHS Employees/1111111001, User=Wing, Bernie Not for Resale, 09/03/2007 01:00:57 MDTNo reproduction or networking permi

42、license from IHS -,-,- CEA-CEB19 6.1.2 Flammability Testing General -The adequacy of the flammability characteristics of materials or parts covered in this document may be determined by testing those components as assembled in the final loudspeaker assembly. Note that flammability testing of the mat
43、erials or parts alone, suspended in air, may significantly change the air circulation pattern from what it actually is when mounted in the final product. Generally components ignite and burn more readily when tested alone. Flammability testing may be done by manually igniting (using an applied sourc
44、e of ignition, such as a flame) the material or part which is either under test or which could conceivably be ignited from a potential source of ignition. For some products, where there is more than one material or part to test, it may be advisable to perform several tests on different products (or
45、assemblies within the product), for each of the individual materials or parts. Sample Conditioning - Prior to the application of the flames in 6.1.2., the sample is to be conditioned for 7 hours in a full draft air-circulating oven at 70 C (158F), followed by four hours at 23 C (73 F), both at 50 %R
46、H. The complete loudspeaker assembly is to be placed on a single layer of tissue paper, and a single layer of cheesecloth is to be draped over the assembly. During this testing the testers should protect themselves from flame and smoke. All tests should be performed in a location that can be made dr
47、aft free for the duration of the test. Air movement (beyond what occurs by natural convection) around the samples under test can significantly increase the likelihood of combustion and can make the test unrepeatable. 6.1.2.1 Materials with flammability classifications of -5VA Materials with flammabi
48、lity classifications of -5VA may be subjected to a 127 mm (5 in.) flame as described in UL94. Five applications of the test flame, with each application consisting of at least 5 seconds of the test flame in contact with the material and 5 seconds between each application. The test is considered to be completed after the fifth flame is removed and the material ceases to flame or glow. At the completion of the test, there should be no ignition of the cheesecloth or tissue paper or visible flame extension outside of the enclosure
