17、to a maximum of 288C (550F).6.1.4 The mechanical agitator speed for the material shall be30 6 5 rpm when fully loaded and the agitator speed for the oilbath shall be such to allow continuous circulation of the oil.6.1.5 Except when adding the sealant or filler sample, orchecking temperature, the mel
18、ters pots shall be covered withclose fitting lids.6.1.6 Refer to Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 (bottom discharge type) andFig. 3 (removable can type) for typical laboratory melters.Alsosee Note 1.6.1.7 The thermometric device shall be a Type K thermo-couple with resolution of 1C and the calibration verified ina

UseFIG. 1 Detailed Drawing of Joint Sealant Laboratory Melting UnitD5167 102a liquid in glass thermometer, such as the 2F or 2C thermom-eters conforming to Specification E1 or temperature measuringdevices such as platinum resistance thermometer
20、s that provideequivalent or better accuracy and precision, as the referencethermometer with the Thermocouples in Stirred Liquid Bathsprocedure. The reference thermometer shall be NISTcertified or NISTtraceable.NOTE 1The removable can type melter as shown in Fig. 3 is verysimilar in design to the mel
21、ter shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2. Fig. 3s pots aredesigned to be removed so the melted material can be poured. Extra caremust be taken when using this type of melter. Check the manufacturersrecommended safety procedures before use.7. Precautions7.1 Prior to beginning sampling and heating of sealants o
22、rfillers, a Material Safety Data Sheet must be obtained from thesealant or filler manufacturer so that proper safe handlingtechniques will be used.7.2 Maximum Heating TemperatureIt is imperative thatthe manufacturers maximum heating temperatures be obtainedfor the material to be evaluated. The tempe
23、rature of thematerial must not exceed the maximum heating temperature.7.3 The laboratory melter unit should be located under anexhaust hood to disperse fumes.7.4 Joint/crack sealants and fillers are manufactured from avariety of materials. To avoid compatibility problems, clean themelter so that it
24、is free of all cleaning solvents and previouslymelted material.8. Procedure8.1 Sample Preparation:8.1.1 Obtain the sample which is delivered to the laboratoryfor testing in accordance with its respective standard materialspecification.8.1.2 Solid MaterialsFor sealants or fillers which aresolid at 23
25、 6 2C (73.4 6 3.6F), cut a complete verticalsection from the material block as illustrated in Fig. 4, in orderto obtain a uniform representative sample and supply enoughproduct to pour all specimens. Also, if present, removecontainer liner by cutting it away. Consult the respectivematerial specifica
26、tion for the required sample size and methodof cutting. Cut the entire vertical section into segments ofapproximately 50 g and place all segments from one verticalsection in the same pot and melt.8.1.3 Liquid MaterialsFor sealants which are liquid at 236 2C (73.4 6 3.6F), stir the sealant to be samp
27、led thor-oughly by hand or mechanically using a suitable stirrer untilFIG. 2 Detailed Drawing of Joint Sealant Laboratory Melting UnitD5167 103the material consistency is uniform and homogeneous. Consultthe respective material specification for the required samplesize.8.2 Heating Procedure:8.2.1 Hea
28、t the oil bath to a temperature that will bring thematerial to the specified temperature within one hour. 8 to 15C(14 27F) above the maximum heating temperature of thematerial to be tested has been found to work satisfactorily forthe oil bath temperature (see 4.1 and 6.1.7) (refer to therespective m
29、aterial specification for the maximum oil bathtemperature).8.2.2 Sample AdditionThe sample pot in the melting unitshall be clean and free of any residue from previous heatedsealants or fillers as well as cleaning materials.8.2.2.1 Solid MaterialsAdd four 50 6 10 g portions of thesealant or filler in
30、to the melting units pot and, with the agitatorrunning, bring the material to a pouring consistency not toexceed the manufacturers maximum heating temperature.Addthe remaining segments at the rate of one 50 g segment/min,stopping the agitator (for not more than 10 s) while making theaddition. If the
31、 sample size required by the respective materialspecification is too large to be melted in one pot, additionalvertical samples must be obtained and melted to meet thecorrect sample size. All of the 50 g segments from one verticalsection must be placed in the same pot and melted as part of thetest. K
32、eep the pot(s) covered at all times and the agitatorrunning, except when adding segments of sealant or filler.1.16 hp Split phase motor 1140 r/min NEMA 56c2. Paddles to turn 35 r/min3.

34、 Liquid MaterialsImmediately after stirring, addthe entire sample portion at one time. If the sample sizerequired by the respective material specification is too large tobe melted in one pot, an additional pot shall be used. Beginmechanical stirring immediately after the sealant is added tothe pot(s
35、).8.2.3 After the solid segments or liquid is added to themelter, regulate the oil bath temperature to bring the sample tothe temperature specified in the respective material specifica-tion within one h from the time the first portion of the materialwas added to the melter. Then, if required, contin
36、ue heating forthe time and at the temperature required in the respectivematerial specification.8.2.4 Temperature Monitoring:8.2.4.1 When material is to be poured immediately uponreaching the specified temperature, check its temperature atmaximum 15 min intervals using a Type K thermocouple withthe c
37、alibration verifed in accordance with 6.1.7 to ensureconformance with specified temperature requirements. Stop themechanical stirrer when measuring temperatures. If materialtemperatures exceed the maximum heating temperature or dropbelow the minimum application temperature after the pouringtemperatu
38、re has been reached, discard the sample and redo theheating. Maintain appropriate records of times and tempera-tures to verify conformance with specification requirements.8.2.4.2 When prolonged heating is required (see Note 2), thesample temperature shall be monitored at intervals not toexceed 30 mi
39、n to verify conformance to temperature require-ments. If material temperatures exceed the maximum heatingtemperature or drop below the minimum application tempera-ture after the pouring temperature has been reached, discard thesample and redo the heating. Maintain appropriate records oftimes and tem
40、peratures to verify conformance with specifica-tion requirements.NOTE 2Sometimes prolonged heating is required to verify that thematerial can meet all the requirements of the specification when prolongedheating situations happen in the field.9. Sample Pouring9.1 When using a melter with a bottom dis
41、charge, discardapproximately the first 50 g of material and then pour all testspecimens as required directly from the melter within a periodof 10 min while continuing agitation.9.2 When using a melter with a removable sample pot, stopthe mechanical stirring device and then remove within onemin. Imme
42、diately remove the sample pot from the melter andclean the oil residue from the outer pot surface. Pour allrequired specimens within 2 min following removal of thesample pot from the melter to minimize temperature loss.FIG. 4 Typical Sealant Units (as supplied in manufacturers original container)D51
