Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONThe protection of grease ducts under fire exposure conditions is an item of importance in s
3、ecuringconstructions that are safe, and that are not a menace to neighboring construction nor to the public.Recognition of this is registered in the codes of many authorities, municipal and other agencies. Manytypes of enclosure materials are used to protect grease ducts. Normally, these enclosure m
4、aterials areeither applied to grease ducts in the field or are fabricated as part of the grease duct when shipped fromthe factory. Evaluating enclosure materials used to protect a grease duct from fire is an aid forpredicting their fire performance and promotes uniformity in requirements of various
5、authorities. Todo this it is necessary that the fire-endurance properties of enclosure materials be measured andspecified according to a common standard expressed in terms that are applicable alike to a wide varietyof materials, situations, and conditions of exposure.1. ScopeNOTE 1The majority of th
6、is standard is based on the Model BuildingCode Evaluation Service2Acceptance Criteria titled ACCEPTANCECRITERIA FOR GREASE DUCT ENCLOSURE ASSEMBLIES, AC101,which was created in 1994. Numerous design listings and labeledmaterials exist based on the provisions of this standard.1.1 These test methods e

8、e test results of the enclosure materialsand grease duct enclosure systems. The results of these tests areone factor in assessing predicted fire performance of greaseduct enclosure systems. Using these test results to predict theperformance of actual grease duct enclosure systems requiresthe evaluat

Summary of Test Method4.1 Representative test specimens of the enclosure materialor the
24、 grease duct enclosure system are subjected to thefollowing tests. These test methods describe the following testsequence and procedures:4.1.1 A noncombustibilty test, Test Method E136, demon-strates the enclosure materials ability to resist combustion at astandardized temperature and duration.4.1.2
25、 A fire resistance test, Test Methods E119, illustratesthe ability of the enclosure material to resist the effects of firewhen applied in a vertical application.4.1.3 A durability test intended to simulate the effects oflong-term exposure of typical in-service conditions on thethermal transmission q
26、ualities of the enclosure materials whensubjected to a modified version of Test Method C518.4.1.4 An internal fire test uses two standardized fire expo-sures occurring inside the grease duct. Both tests illustrate theenclosure materials ability to resist thermal transmission ofheat to the unexposed
27、side in a horizontal application. The firststandardized fire exposure is intended to simulate long termexposure of the enclosure material to a standardized servicecondition. The second standardized fire exposure is intended tosimulate a standardized grease fire.4.1.5 A fire-engulfment test uses a st
28、andardized fireexposure, the time temperature curve of Test Methods E119,tosimulate a fire occurring on the outside of the grease duct, anddemonstrates the ability of the grease duct enclosure system toremain intact without a through opening. The fire-engulfmenttest also tests the fastening methods
29、used to secure theenclosure material to the grease duct and the supportingsystem. The fire-engulfment test also provides a means to testa through-penetration fire stop to determine its compatibilitywith the grease duct enclosure system.5. Significance and Use5.1 These test methods are intended to ev

35、60062.E2336 04 (2013)25.3.1 Full information as to performance of the enclosurematerial or the grease duct enclosure system constructed withcomponents, densities, or dimensions other than those tested.5.3.2 Evaluation of the degree by which the enclosurematerial or grease duct enclosure system contr

37、se duct enclosure system.NOTE 2The information in 5.3.2-5.3.4 is usually determined by othersuitable test methods. For example, 5.3.4 is typically determined usingTest Method E84.5.4 In these test methods, the test specimens are subjected toone or more specific tests under laboratory conditions. Whe
38、ndifferent test conditions are substituted or the end-use condi-tions are changed, it is not always possible by, or from, thesetest methods to predict changes to the characteristics measured.Therefore, the results of these laboratory tests are valid only forthe exposure conditions described in these
39、 test methods.5.5 Various test methods in these test methods require a testspecimen to be exposed to a standard fire that is controlled toachieve specified temperatures throughout a specified timeperiod. The fire-engulfment and vertical fire resistance tests arefollowed by the application of a stand
40、ardized hose stream test.These test methods provide a relative measure of the fire-test-response of comparable enclosure materials and grease ductenclosure systems under these exposure conditions. The fireexposure is not representative of all fire conditions becauseconditions vary with changes in th
41、e amount, nature anddistribution of fire loading, ventilation, compartment size andconfiguration, and heat sink characteristics of the compartment.Variation from the test conditions or test specimenconstruction, such as size, materials, method of assembly, alsoaffects the fire-test-response. For the
42、se reasons, evaluation ofthe variation is required for application to construction in thefield.6.
