Sampling6.1 Test a minimum of three units (or a larger sample size ifdesired) of similar models using the same motor style andamperage. Select all samples at random in accordance withgood statistical practice. Results
16、 shall provide an 80 % confi-dence level within 610 % of the mean value. If not, testadditional samples or reduce the results by the penalty factor ascalculated in 7.8.1.7. Procedures for Motor Life Evaluation7.1 Determine initial performance as follows:7.1.1 Connect the manometer (or equivalent) to
17、 the plenumchamber. Install a clean filter in the test vacuum cleaner beforeconducting performance tests. (This is not required for unitswhich do not use filters).7.1.2 With the vacuum cleaner hose end (or nozzle) sealedto the plenum chamber and without an orifice plate in theholder, energize the va
18、cuum cleaner at its nameplate ratedvoltage 61 % and frequency 61 Hz until the vacuum cleanerreaches its normal operating temperature. For vacuum cleanerswith dual nameplate voltage ratings, conduct testing at thehighest voltage.7.1.3 With the vacuum cleaner operating at a constant ratedvoltage, inse
19、rt the 0.75 in. (19.05 mm) diameter sharp-edgeorifice into the holder on the plenum chamber.7.1.4 Record the manometer reading as soon as the readingstabilizes.7.1.4.1 Take readings as soon as the manometer reaches atrue peak. (On higher manometer readings, the liquid level maypeak drop and peak a s
20、econd time. The second peak is the truepeak reading. A person conducting the test for the first timeshall observe a least one run before recording data). SeeSpecification F 431 for instructions on how to minimize theovershoot (first peak) of the liquid level.7.1.4.2 Take all readings within 10 s of
21、the orifice plateinsertion.7.1.5 Record the wattage of the vacuum cleaner connectedto the plenum chamber. The wattage reading is used to monitorthe vacuum cleaner load.7.1.6 Monitor the wattage and the suction daily and measureon the plenum chamber every 168 h to ensure that a load ismaintained, tha
22、t no mechanical problem has developed, andthat performance has not degraded by more than 40 %. Ifdegradation exceeds 40 %, see 7.7.1 and 7.7.27.2 Install the vacuum cleaner on the test fixture with a 0.75in. (19.05 mm) diameter sharp-edge orifice plate in the vacuumcleaner hose (or nozzle) opening.7
23、.2.1 If required, the unit may have an adapter which has thespecified orifice or provision to mount an orifice plate to thevacuum cleaner.7.3 If various settings are provided, set the motor speed,suction regulator, or a combination of these, in accordance withthe manufacturers specified settings for
24、 using the vacuumcleaner on the level loop test carpet. This setting shall be thesame as that used for Test Method F 608.7.4 During the life test, change the disposable filter or cleanthe reusable filter every 168 h of test time. (This is not requiredfor units which do not use filters). The manufact
25、urers recom-mended cleaning procedure is to be used whenever specified ininstruction booklets. Where no procedure is specified, replacereusable filters. When a new or cleaned filter is placed in thevacuum cleaner, check the vacuum cleaner on the plenumchamber for degradation of performance in accord
26、ance with7.7.1 and 7.7.2.7.5 Perform all tests in a controlled ambient atmospherewith a dry bulb temperature of 68 to 81F (20 to 27C) andrelative humidity of 30 to 50 %.7.6 Test the vacuum cleaner at the voltage specified in 7.1.2from a remote on/off switch and timer with a duty cycle of 8min of ope
27、ration followed by 2 min off.7.7 Check for degradation of performance every 168 h oftest time.7.7.1 Performance DegradationIn accordance with theprocedure in Annex A1, use the suction at the start of the test7.1.4 as the base for determining the 40 % degradation ofperformance.7.7.2 If degradation is
28、 present, determine and correct thecause. Replace any part, except the motor or its integral parts,to bring system within performance limits and continue the testuntil the motor stops.7.8 Judge the end of the test in conformance with Section 3.Express life in terms of operating (on) hours only.7.8.1

METHOD FOR DETERMINING 40 % DEGRADATION OF PERFORMANCEA1.1 One requirement for life test is to ensure thatperformance at the vacuum cleaner hose (or nozzle) has notdegraded by more than 40 % of original. This is to ensuresuction loading on the motor. This
34、 degradation can be based ona reduction of initial suction, since there is a direct relationshipbetween suction and airflow. Determine the point at whichsteps must be taken to correct the performance loss based onsuction as follows.A1.2 Derivation:Q15 21.844D2K=h1(A1.1)Since D2and K are constants, t
35、hen Q1/Q25=h1/=h2and Q25 0.6Q1at the point when servicingmay be required. Therefore, Q1/0.6Q15=h1/=h2,orh2= 0.6Q1,orh2= 0.36h1at the servicing point.A1.3 Terms:Q1= initial airflow,Q2= airflow at servicing point,h1= initial suction,h2= suction at servicing point,D = orifice diameter, andK = orifice f
