1、Designation: E2953 14Standard Specification forEvaluating Accelerated Aging Performance ofElectrochromic Devices in Sealed Insulating Glass Units1This standard is issued under the fixed designation E2953; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in

2、the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This specification is applicable to all electrochromic(EC) glass whose visible light

3、 transmittance or near infraredlight transmittance properties, or both, can be changed revers-ibly by the application or removal of an electrical voltage. Thisincludes absorptive and reflective EC devices.1.2 This specification does not apply to other types ofdynamic glass which do not solely requir

5、e contains an ECdevice (which may be in the form of a laminated lite or a singlepane with coatings applied). This specification is also appli-cable to EC devices in preassembled insulating glass units withcapillary tubes intentionally left open. As such this specifica-tion also requires conformance

6、to Specification E2190.1.4 This specification is applicable only to sealed insulatingglass units that are constructed with glass and fabricated forvision glass areas for use in buildings, such as sliding doors,windows, skylights, and exterior wall systems.1.5 Qualification under this specification i

No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.7 This standard does not purport to address all of

8、 thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.
