Performance Requirements6.1 Rate of VentilationThe rate of ventilation at 100C andat the maximum temperature at which the oven is used shall be:6.1.1 For Type I ovens, 5 to 20 air chan

17、ges per hour,6.1.2 For Type II ovens, 100 to 200 air changes per hour.NOTE 1Past experience in the United States has been to specify 100to 200 air changes per hour, as required for Type II ovens. However,international practice, as defined in IEC Publication 216-4-1, has been touse the lower rate of

18、ventilation, which is specified for Type I ovens.6.2 Set TemperatureThe set temperature, measured over afive-day test period, shall not vary by more than the valuesgiven in Table 1.6.3 Temperature VariationThe temperature shall not ex-ceed that given in Table 1 for any test temperature.NOTE 2Some te

In such cases, reduction of the variationsspecified in Table 1 is subject to agreement between purchaser andmanufacturer.6.4 Thermal Lag TimeThe thermal lag time, measuredwith the oven operating at a temperature o

28、mandatory Information)X1. IN-SERVICE MONITORING BY THE USERX1.1 Regular periodic tests of the oven are necessary inorder to ensure that the oven retains its original characteristicsin service. For ovens in continuous use, these tests should beconducted twice a year. It is good practice to make these

29、 testsbefore beginning aging tests at a different temperature.X1.2 These tests are aimed at measuring the set temperatureand temperature variations at the planned aging temperature. Ifpossible, tests should be repeated with the oven loaded withspecimens.X1.3 The values to be determined according to

30、Test Meth-ods D5374 should include at least the following:X1.3.1 The set temperature,X1.3.2 The temperature variation at the set temperature, andX1.3.3 The temperature fluctuation at the center of the ovenchamber over a 24 h period.X1.4 The set temperature measured and reported in X1.3should be reco

31、rded as the aging temperature. The temperaturevariation should be within the limits given in Table 1.X2. OVEN LOADINGX2.1 The air circulation within a forced-convection ovenshould be considered when loading specimens into the ovenchamber. Forced-convection ovens are designed to provideuniform air te

32、mperature throughout the test chamber. Thisuniformity of air temperature is achieved by using baffles, ordifferent sizes of holes, or both at the air inlet and outlet to andfrom the chamber.X2.2 The air flow within an oven is almost laminar at the airinlet and outlet and near the walls of the test c

33、hamber. The airis turbulent within the center of the chamber.X2.3 It has been noted that specimens positioned in thelaminar air flow regions age faster than those in the turbulentregion. The reason for this phenomenon is not understood, butit has been observed that the leading edges of flat specimen

34、sare a degree or two hotter than the trailing edge. There alsomay be a tendency for plasticizers to be stripped more rapidlyfrom specimens in the laminar flow regions because of higherair velocity across the surface of the specimens.X2.4 For maximum reproducibility of test results, speci-mens should

35、 be placed in the turbulent air flow region. In anempty oven chamber, the turbulent flow region occupies theinner half of the chamber volume. This region decreases withloading, depending on specimen geometry and positioning.Placement of specimens near the inlet or outlet ports should beavoided, beca
