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 securingconstructio
3、ns 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 materials areeither
4、 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 authorities. Todo
5、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 this standard is bas

Numerous design listings and labeledmaterials exist based on the provisions of this standard.1.1 These test methods evaluate the enclos
7、ure materials andthe grease duct enclosure systems using the following testmethods: noncombustibility, fire resistance, durability, internalfire, and fire-engulfment with a through-penetration fire stop.1.2 These test methods prescribe a standardized fire expo-sure for comparing the test results of
8、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 evaluation of test condit

27、ethod 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 side in a horizontal application. The firststandardized fire exposure is intended
28、 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 standardized fireexposure, the time temperature curve of Test Methods E119,tosimula
29、te 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 used to secure theenclosure material to the grease duct and the supportingsystem.
30、 The fire-engulfment test also provides a means to testa through-penetration fire stop to determine its compatibilitywith the grease duct enclosure system.5.

36、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 contributes to the firehazard by generation of smoke, toxic gases, or other productsof combus
37、tion.5.3.3 Measurement of the degree of control or limitation ofthe passage of smoke or products of combustion through thegrease duct enclosure system.5.3.4 Measurement of flame spread over the surface of thegrease duct enclosure system.NOTE 2The information in 5.3.2 5.3.4 is usually determined byot
38、her suitable test methods. For example, 5.3.4 is typically determinedusing Test Method E84.5.4 In these test methods, the test specimens are subjected toone or more specific tests under laboratory conditions. Whendifferent test conditions are substituted or the end-use condi-tions are changed, it is
39、 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 test methods.5.5 Various test methods in these test methods require a testspecimen to b
40、e 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 standardized hose stream test.These test methods provide a relative measure of the fire-test-
41、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 the amount, nature anddistribution of fire loading, ventilation, compartment size andconfi
42、guration, 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 these reasons, evaluation ofthe variation is required for application to construction in th
