18、nvestigation of air leakage through door assemblies and other opening protectives (hereafter also referred to as test sample) installed in wall openings where air leakage is intended to be controlled. 1.1 revised February 17, 2015 1.2 The purpose of the test is to determine only the resistance of a
19、test sample, in the closed position, to air leakage resulting from a specied air pressure difference applied across the surface of the entire opening protective. 1.2 revised February 17, 2015 1.3 These requirements apply to complete door assemblies, opening protectives, or to gasketing systems inten
20、ded for use with specic door or other protective assemblies. 1.3 revised February 17, 2015 1.4 The test method includes air leakage tests and cycling tests to determine the rate of air leakage through a test sample in an as-installed condition. 1.4 revised February 17, 2015 1.5 The results obtained
21、by use of this test method are expressed in cubic feet per minute per square foot (m 3 /s per m 2 ) of opening and are intended to develop data to assist authorities having jurisdiction, and others, in determining acceptability of a door assembly, opening protective, or gasketing system with referen
22、ce to control of air movement through an assembly. 1.5 revised February 17, 2015 1.6 A door assembly, opening protective, or gasketing system investigated by this test method is intended for installation and use in accordance with the Standard for the Installation of Smoke Door Assemblies, NFPA 105.
23、 1.6 revised February 17, 2015 1.7 This test method shall not be used for such opening protectives that include an air leakage test method within the test standard. For example, the Standard for Fire Tests of Through-Penetration Firestops, UL 1479, contains an air leakage test method for restop syst
24、ems and therefore shall not be substituted with this test method. 1.7 added February 17, 2015 FEBRUARY 17, 2015 UL 1784 4UL COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL NOT AUTHORIZED FOR FURTHER REPRODUCTION OR DISTRIBUTION WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM UL 2 General 2.1 Units of measurement 2.1.1 Values stated without parenthes

33、 per unit of opening, expressed as cubic feet per minute per square feet (m 3 /s per m 2 ) of the test sample. 3.11 revised February 17, 2015 3.12 REPLACEMENT AIR The volume of air, at ambient temperature, added to the test chamber, to replace the air leakage (Q) volume of air in either the ambient
34、or elevated temperature exposure tests. 3.13 TEST CHAMBER A sealed chamber or box with an opening, a removable mounting panel, or one open side in which or against which the test sample is installed and sealed. 3.14 TEST PRESSURE DIFFERENCE The specied difference in static air pressure across the cl
35、osed and latched or xed test sample expressed as inch of water column (Pa). 3.15 TEST SAMPLE The entire assembly of the opening system, which may include the frame, operable panel, gasketing, hardware, or any combination thereof. The test sample shall also consist of the specic type of supporting co
36、nstruction for which the opening is installed. 3.15 revised February 17, 2015 INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 4 General 4.1 Installation and operating instructions shall be made available with each test sample by the manufacturer. Instructions shall be illustrated and shall include detailed
37、directions and information for the intended installation and operation of the test sample. Instructions shall cover mounting, sealing, opening and closing requirements, maximum and minimum size of the test sample, and shall be in accordance with the Standard for the Installation of Smoke Door Assemb
38、lies, NFPA 105. 4.1 revised February 17, 2015 4.2 The instructions shall be used as a guide in the examination and test of the opening assembly. For this purpose, a published edition is not required. A published edition will be required upon successful completion of the test program. 4.2 revised Feb
39、ruary 17, 2015 4.3 The evaluated sample size shall be as dened in the Standard for the Installation of Smoke Door Assemblies, NFPA 105. In instances where the test sample or size is not dened in NFPA 105, the construction and size of the tested sample shall be representative of that for which the ra
40、ting is being evaluated. For test sample sizes not dened in NFPA 105, critical factors including the aspect ratio (ratio of door perimeter to area) and the length of linear gaps or clearances where leakage could occur is to be considered in determining the sample size for testing.The instructions sh
41、all be used as a guide in the examination and test of the opening assembly. For this purpose, a published edition is not required. A published edition will be required upon successful completion of the test program. 4.3 added February 17, 2015 FEBRUARY 17, 2015 UL 1784 6UL COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL NOT A

43、revised February 17, 2015 5.1.2 Each test sample shall be tested from both directions with respect to the opening of the test chamber. The testing can either be conducted on one test sample that is removed and repositioned in the mounting panel or on two separate, identical test samples. 5.1.2 revis
44、ed February 17, 2015 5.1.3 The test laboratory has the authority to identify and evaluate representative test installations that shall be subjected to the tests described within this standard. When a test sample and assembly is entirely symmetrical about the center plane of the test sample and assem
45、bly, a single representative direction can be tested. If testing is conducted from one side only, the justication shall be stated within the report. Exception: For those test samples not dened within the Standard for the Installation of Smoke Door Assemblies, NFPA 105, each size and aspect ratio sha
46、ll be considered for testing as the performance of the assembly is directly related to its size and construction. 5.1.3 added February 17, 2015 5.2 Conditioning 5.2.1 A test sample containing hygroscopic materials or other materials that can be affected by moisture is to be conditioned in an environ
47、ment having a dry bulb temperature of 77 5F (25 3C) and a relative humidity of 40 65 percent until the moisture content within the test sample reaches equilibrium. The equilibrium shall be based on measurements taken by no less than 3 days apart. 5.2.1 revised February 17, 2015 5.3 Test chamber 5.3.
48、1 The air leakage test chamber is to consist of a well-sealed chamber or box with an opening, a removable mounting panel, or one open side in or against which the test sample is installed and sealed. A means of access into the chamber may be provided to facilitate adjustments and observations of the
49、 installed test sample. 5.3.2 At least one static pressure tap is to be provided to measure the chamber pressure and is to be located so that the reading is unaffected by the velocity of the air supplied to or exiting from the chamber. 5.3.3 The temperature of the chamber shall be deemed the average temperature obtained by a minimum of three thermocouples and no fewer than one thermocouple per 15 square feet (1.4 m 2 ) of test assembly exposed to the fur
