5、d 2014-01 Superseding AS4372B Performance Requirements for Wire, Electric, Insulated Copper or Copper Alloy RATIONALE AS4372C has been reaffirmed to comply with the SAE five-year review policy. FOREWORD This SAE Aerospace Standard (AS) contains performance-oriented requirements intended to evaluate
6、electric wire for aerospace applications. The results of testing wires to the requirements of this standard should aid designers in selecting suitable wires for their particular applications. The requirements of this standard are classified as follows: a. Design Evaluation: Specific requirements are
7、 given. b. Information Only: No specific requirements, but test results shall be reported. These classifications are based on the existence of specific general performance levels for these requirements and not on the importance of the particular requirement. Requirements for process control and qual
8、ity conformance are not included in this document since this is not a purchase specification. This document provides baseline criteria and some minimum performance levels for aerospace wire. These requirements may need to be supplemented or revised by the designer to meet the particular application.
9、 Sound engineering judgment must be the overriding criteria for test selection, interpretation of test results, and resulting aerospace wire application. Results from all tests may not be required for every wire application selection problem. A number of the performance requirements documented in th
10、is standard are long term procedures and/or are costly in terms of time and/or equipment. NOTE: The requirements of this document were collected from a number of aerospace vehicle manufacturers. Therefore, some common requirements have established minimum performance levels while other requirements
11、are more user-specific and are classified as information only. SAE INTERNATIONAL AS4372C Page 2 of 24 TABLE OF CONTENTS 1. SCOPE 4 2.

SCOPE 1.1 This document covers the requirements for insulated, single-conductor, electric wires with tin-coated, silver-coated, or nickel-coated conductors of copper or copper alloy as specified in an applicable generated
20、 performance sheet (see Appendix A for sample). It provides general performance requirements, ratings, and information for various characteristics of insulated wire systems used in aerospace applications. Numerical test requirements, or parameters, were originally developed using either English or m
21、etric units. The original, primary, units are shown first with the secondary (converted) units in parentheses. Secondary units are listed for information only and are not to be considered requirements. Wire will be assigned a level of performance for many requirements set forth in this standard. The
22、se performance levels, in addition to numerical test results, shall be listed in the applicable performance sheet. This standard contains some tests and referenced AS4373 Test Methods that have not been rigorously confirmed as reproducible. Such methods are identified under the Precision and Bias St
23、atements in the individual AS4373 Test Methods. Many requirements have multiple levels of performance. The wire with base level of performance is acceptable for general use; however, there may be special applications that will require wire with higher performance levels. 1.2 Construction The wires s
24、hall be constructed as described in the applicable performance sheet. 1.2.1 Performance Sheet Identification Each performance sheet will have an identifying number as shown in Figure 1. FIGURE 1 The manufacturer/user code can be the part number used by either one. The manufacturer identification sho
25、uld be the Commercial and Government Entity (CAGE) Code per publication H4-1 and H4-2. 2. APPLICABLE DOCUMENTS The following publications form a part of this document to the extent specified herein. The latest issue of SAE publications shall apply.

41、, and Repair 3.2.1 Solderability (Tin Coated Copper Wire Only) When tested in accordance with Method 105 of AS4373, tin coated copper wire specimens shall have 95% of the termination covered by continuous new solder. Pinholes and voids shall not be concentrated and shall be less than 5% of the total
42、 termination area. Three specimens of each wire size shall be tested to one of the conditions listed in Table 1 and the results averaged. SAE INTERNATIONAL AS4372C Page 8 of 24 TABLE 1 3.2.2 Thermal/Mechanical Resistance When tested in accordance with Method 106 of AS4373 for single wire and Method
43、107 for wire in a bundle, size 22 specimens shall exhibit their ability to resist damage from a soldering iron heated to 550 F (288 C), 650 F (343 C), and 750 F (399 C). The average time to penetrate at each temperature shall be recorded on the performance sheet. If penetration does not occur within
44、 the maximum time limit, “no penetration“ shall be recorded on the performance sheet. 3.2.3 Solder Pot Test for Insulation Shrinkage When tested in accordance with Method 108 of AS4373, three size 22 wire specimens shall have the insulation shrinkage measured. The average shrinkage shall be recorded
45、 in the performance sheet. 3.2.4 Insulation Bonding to Potting Compounds When tested in accordance with Method 102 of AS4373, five size 22 AWG wire specimens shall have the pull-out strength measured. The average pull-out strength shall be recorded on the performance sheet. 3.2.5 Percent Overlap of
46、Insulating Tapes When tested in accordance with Method 109 of AS4373, the degree of rotation shall be measured on each tape layer. Using the formula provided, the degrees of overlap shall be converted to percentage overlap. Both the degrees of rotation and percent overlap shall be recorded on the pe
47、rformance sheet. 3.3 Chemical, Biological, Radiological/Nuclear, Biological Chemical CBR(NBC) When required by a user, specimens of insulation material shall be tested to CBR/NBC. Note that the Air Force has established an extensive data base on the chemical compatibility of materials for use in aer
48、ospace vehicles. While this data base as a whole is classified information, it has been made available to prime aerospace contractors. Current contact for this data base is at WL/MSLA, Wright Patterson AFB, Ohio. In addition, the Army has done extensive testing of a number of materials and should be
49、 consulted before testing to determine if a candidate insulation material has already been tested. Contact for this is NBC Survivability Office, Army CR&D, Edgewood, MD. The intent of this material testing is to assure inertness of a material to the CBR/NBC exposure. Because of this, Test Methods Group 200 of AS4373 gives no procedure. The Air Force and the Army have established over a dozen qualified laboratories to do this type
