Therefore, no referenceto the use of this practice shall be

Refer to Practice G151 fordetailed information on the caveats applicable to use of resultsobtained according to this practice.NOTE 3Additional information on sources of variabili

Thetype and rate of degradation and the performance rankingsproduced in exposures to fluorescent UV lamps can be muchdifferent from those produced by exposures to other types oflaboratory light sources.4.2.2 Interlaboratory comparisons are valid only when alllabora

30、AThe cycles described are not listed in any order indicating importance, and are not necessarily recommended for the applications listed. Additional exposure cyclesare described in Practice G154.BThe irradiance set point given is typical for devices operated without irradiance control. Other irradia
31、nce levels may be used, but must be described in the report.CPrevious editions of Practice D4587 contained non-mandatory irradiance set points in Table 1 that were commonly used in the industry. The previous set points were0.72 and 0.77 W/(m2 nm) at 340 nm for UVA 340 lamps. The measurement data use
32、d to establish these set points was inaccurate, due to an error in calibration on thepart of one manufacturer. It has been found that, for most users, the actual irradiance when running at the previous set points was 11 to 15 % higher than the indicatedset point. The set points shown in this edition
33、 of D4587 do not change the actual irradiances that have been historically used by these users. However, for users ofequipment made by another manufacturer, the irradiance control system did not have the measurement inaccuracies described above, so running at the new set pointswill represent a chang
34、e in the actual irradiance of the test. If in doubt, users should consult the manufacturer of their device for clarification.DTemperature is at equilibrium for either an uninsulated or insulated black panel, although the response of the insulated black panel might be slower than that for theuninsula
35、ted black panel. Refer to Practice G151 for more information about the construction and differences between uninsulated and insulated black panels.ETypical uses do not imply that results from exposures of these materials according to the cycle described will correlate to those from actual use condit

It is recommendedthat at least three replicates of each material be exposed toallow for statistical evaluation of results.4.4 Test results will depend upon the care that is taken tooperate the equipment according
38、to Practice G154. Significantfactors include regulation of line voltage, temperature of theroom in which the device operates, temperature control, andcondition and age of the lamps.4.5 All references to exposures in accordance with thispractice must include a complete description of the test cycleus
39、ed.5. Apparatus5.1 Use of fluorescent UV apparatus that conform to therequirements defined in Practices G151 and G154 is required toconform to this practice.NOTE 4A fluorescent UV apparatus that complied with Practice G53also complies with Practice G154.5.2 Unless otherwise specified, the spectral p
40、ower distribu-tion of the fluorescent UV lamp shall conform to the require-ments in Practice G154 for a UVA 340 lamp.NOTE 5Fluorescent UV exposures described in SAE J2020 for auto-motive applications call for use of fluorescent UVB lamps.5.3 Test Chamber Location:5.3.1 Locate the apparatus in an are
41、a maintained between 18and 27C (65 and 80F). Measure ambient temperature at amaximum distance of 150 mm (6 in.) from the plane door ofthe apparatus. Control of ambient temperature is particularlycritical when one apparatus is stacked above another, becausethe heat generated from the lower unit can i
42、nterfere with theoperation of the units above.5.3.2 Place the apparatus at least 300 mm (12 in.) fromwalls or other apparatus. Do not place the apparatus near a heatsource such as an oven.5.3.3 Ventilate the room in which the apparatus is located toremove heat and moisture.6. Hazards6.1 WarningIn ad
43、dition to other precautions, never lookdirectly at the fluorescent UV lamp because UV radiation candamage the eye. Turn the device off before removing panels forinspection.7. Test Specimens7.1 Apply the coating to flat (plane) panels with the sub-strate, method of preparation, method of application,
44、 coatingsystem, film thickness, and method of drying consistent withthe anticipated end use, or as mutually agreed upon betweenthe producer and user.7.2 Panel specifications and methods of preparation includebut are not limited to Practices D609, D1730, or SpecificationD358. Select panel sizes suita
45、ble for use with the exposureapparatus.7.2.1 For specimens coated on insulating materials, such asfoams, quickly check the specimens during the condensationperiod to verify that visible condensation is occurring on thespecimens. Perform this visual check once per week at leastone hour after the star
46、t of condensation.NOTE 6If condensation is not occurring, the most likely causeinvolves inadequate room-air cooling; (1) the laboratory temperature istoo high; (2) condensation temperature is set too low, or too close to roomtemperature; (3) thick specimens of insulating material may be preventingth
47、e room-air cooling necessary for condensation. For example, a 25 mmthick wood specimen may exhibit poor condensation with a condensationset point of 40C and a lab temperature of 30C; or (4) improper specimenmounting is allowing vapor to escape from the chamber.7.3 Coat test panels in accordance with
48、 Practices D823, thenmeasure the film thickness in accordance with an appropriateprocedure selected from Test Methods D1005, D1186,orD1400. Nondestructive methods are preferred because panelsso measured need not be repaired.7.4 Prior to exposing coated panels in the apparatus, condi-tion them at 23
49、6 2C (73 6 3F) and 50 6 5 % relativehumidity for one of the following periods in accordance withthe type of coating:Baked coatings 24 hRadiation-cured coatings 24 hAll other coatings 7 days7.4.1 Other procedures for preparation of test specimensmay be used if agreed upon by all interested parties.7.5 Mount specimens in holders so that only the minimumspecimen area required for support by the holder is covered.Do not use this covered area of the specimen as part of the testarea.7.6 Unless otherwise specified, expose at least three repli-cate specimen
