For further information,see ANSI-ASHRAE Standard 101 and ISO/DP 6781.3E.4.3 This practice does not provide methods to determine thecause of moisture or its point of entry.

Instrument Requirements6.1 General:6.1.1 ObjectiveInstrument requirements have been estab-lished in order to permit location of insulation that has lost aslittle as 20 % of its insulating ability because it containsmoisture.6.1.2 Spectral RangeThe infrared imaging system shalloperate
32、within a spectral range from 2 to 14 m. A spotradiometer or nonimaging line scanner is not sufficient.6.1.3 Minimum Resolvable Temperature Difference(MRTD)The MRTD at 20C shall be 0.3C.6.1.3.1 The survey shall be conducted with the thermalimaging system only on sensitivity settings that meet thisreq
33、uirement.6.1.4 Test for Minimum Resolvable Temperature Difference:6.1.4.1 Instrument SettingThe thermal imaging systemshall be tested at each sensitivity that the system will be used.6.1.4.2 Test Target PatternThe test target shall consist oftwo plates with known temperatures, located in front of th
34、eC1153 10 (2015)2imaging system. The near plate shall have four equally spacedslots each having 7:1 height-to-width ratio (see Fig. 1).6.1.4.3 Test GeometryRefer to Fig. 1. The ratio of thewidth, (w), on the test pattern to the distance, (d), to theimaging system shall be established, using the maxi

36、ce between the two plates ofthe target is slowly increased without communicating with theobserver. The observer announces when the test pattern comesinto view on the display. The temperature at this point isrecorded.6.1.4.5 Test ReplicatesBecause of differences in visualacuity, more than one observe

The average temperature difference is the MRTD forthat test condition.6.2 Walk-Over Surveys:6.2.1 Anomaly SizeInstrument requirements have beenestablished to permit recognition of areas of wet insulation assmall as 0.15 m on a side.6.2.2 Recognition Distance,
38、 FOV and IFOVRecognitionis accomplished when the width of a thermal anomaly, inmetres, is at least 0.008 times the product of the IFOV of thesystem and the distance, in metres, from the system to theanomaly. Since the walkover survey shall be accomplished at amaximum distance of 5 m, the IFOV of the
39、 apparatus shall be3.8 milliradians, or less. The horizontal and vertical FOVs shallbe at least 0.21 rad by 0.10 rad, respectively.6.3 Elevated Vantage Point Surveys:6.3.1 Anomaly SizeInstrument requirements have beenestablished to permit recognition of areas of wet insulation assmall as 0.15 m on a
40、 side.6.3.2 Recognition Distance, FOV and IFOVSince recog-nition must be possible at distances greater than 5 m, themaximum allowable IFOV in milliradians is related todistance, (d), in metres from the infrared imaging system to theplace on the roof being scanned as follows:IFOV 5 18.8/dThe minimum
41、horizontal FOV shall be 1.0/d and theminimum vertical FOV shall be 0.5/d, both expressed in rad.6.4 Aerial Surveys:6.4.1 Anomaly SizeAerial surveys shall be conducted withinfrared imaging systems that have the ability to detect areas ofwet insulation as small as 0.3 m on a side directly below thesys

43、, in metres, above the roof, as follows:IFOV 5 150/dThe FOV along the line of flight and across the line of flightshall be at least 0.05 rad by 0.10 rad, respectively. The usablefield of view shall be within 0.35 rad of a point directly belowthe infrared imaging system.7. Level of Knowledge7.1 The p
44、roper conduct of a roof moisture survey using aninfrared imaging system requires knowledge of how and underwhat circumstances the system is used and a general under-standing of roof construction.7.2 Proper interpretation of infrared data requires knowl-edge of infrared theory, moisture migration, he
45、at transfer,environmental effects, and roof construction as they apply toroof moisture analysis.8. Limitations (Applicability of Constructions)8.1 Applicable constructions include membrane systemscontaining any of the commercially available rigid insulationboards. This includes boards made of organi
46、c fibers, perlite,cork, fibrous glass, cellular glass, polystyrene, polyurethane,isocyanurate, and phenolic. Composite boards, tapered systemsmade from these materials and roofs insulated with foamed inplace polyurethane are able to be inspected.8.2 When extruded polystyrene insulation is placed und
