Thismeasurement involves the use of a

17、n appropriate resistancemeter and voltage application system, as well as a special testfixture or measuring stand.NOTE 1A tire mounted on an approved wheel and inflated to aspecified pressure.5. Significance and Use5.1 Occasions exist where static charges on the vehicle mustbe dissipated by way of t

18、he tires. Electrical resistance inverselymeasures the tires ability to dissipate static charge from thevehicle.6. Apparatus6.1 Resistance Measuring Instrument (ohmmeter)Resistance shall be measured by a commercial instrumentcapable of measuring electrical resistance in ohms and havinga power source

19、capable of 1000 V. The voltage shall becontrolled as described in Table 1 and shall not dissipate morethan 3 W in the test sample. The instrument shall be capable ofdetermining the resistance up to a value of 1012 with anaccuracy of 62 %. The input impedance shall be at least 1016.6.2 Metal Loading

20、PlateA flat plate of dimensions suffi-cient to encompass the entire contact surface of the tire undertest and with sufficient thickness to support the test loadsdescribed in Section 8 without visible deformation. This plateshall be made of a conductive noncorrosive metal, for example,brass or stainl

21、ess steel, free from any coating or obvioussurface contamination, such as oxidation or corrosion. Alumi-num shall not be used for the plate because of its highsusceptibility to the rapid development of surface oxides,which may adversely affect reading accuracy.6.3 Loading ApparatusA loading fixture

22、(Fig. 1) capableof applying the tire load, in a radial direction, against the metalloading plate. Test load measurement accuracy shall be 61%.6.4 Insulating MaterialAsheet of insulating material suchas polyethylene, PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene), or equivalent,with sufficient strength to support th

23、e test loads described inSection 8 without visible deformation. The insulating materialshould have dimensions of at least 50 mm (2.0 in.) greater, onall sides, than the metal loading plate.6.4.1 With insulating sheet installed between the metalloading plate and the loading apparatus base (Fig. 1), t

24、heelectrical resistance between the metal loading plate and theloading apparatus should be at least 1014. In practice, theelectrical resistance of the plate relative to the loading appa-ratus must be at least two orders of magnitude higher than thetire being measured.6.5 Pressure GageA commercially

25、available gage with anaccuracy of 63 kPa (60.5 psi).7. Conditioning7.1 For at least 8 h prior to measurement of passenger, lighttruck, and motorcycle tire applications (24 h for all other tires),the tire to be tested shall be kept at an ambient temperature of23 6 5C 73 6 9F, and at a relative humidi

26、ty less than60 %.8. Measurement Conditions8.1 The test load applied during the measurement is 80 65 % of the maximum load capacity of the tire as listed in theapplicable TRA, ETRTO, or JATMA standards.8.2 The inflation pressure is equal to 80 6 5 % of thepressure corresponding to the maximum load of

27、 the tire.8.3 If the tire size is not listed in the applicable TRA,ETRTO, or JATMA standards, the above percentages apply tothe loads and inflations as marked on the sidewall of the tire.8.4 Ambient temperature during the measurement shall bemaintained at 23 6 5C (73 6 9F).8.5 Relative humidity duri

28、ng the measurement shall bemaintained at 60 %.9. Procedure9.1 Preparation of the Tire-Wheel Assembly:9.1.1 The approved wheel (see Note 2) (steel preferred)must be stripped clean in the bead seat area, as well as at theconnection point. As an alternative, if the electrical resistanceof the wheel is

29、known to be two orders of magnitude lowerthan the tire to be measured, stripping is not necessary.NOTE 2A wheel whose rim meets the specifications of the Tire andRim Association (TRA) Yearbook or applicable document.9.1.2 It is necessary to make sure that the tire is dry beforetaking the measurement

30、. Dry mount the tire if possible. Toavoid damage to tires in the case of difficult mountingconditions, a water-soluble mounting solution can be used.Anymounting solution on the sidewall or tread of the tire must becleaned and dried.9.1.3 Mark a reference point on one tire sidewall with anonconductiv

31、e material. The reference point could be at aspecific tire marking such as the United States Department ofTransportation “DOT” mark, the Economic Commission forEurope (ECE) “E” mark, or other selected tire marking.9.2 Setup:9.2.1 Set up the apparatus as shown in Fig. 1.9.2.2 Clean the metal loading

32、plate with isopropyl alcoholor a similar agent and allow to dry.9.2.3 Install the tire-wheel assembly on the loading fixtureand clean the exterior of the tire with isopropyl alcohol or asimilar agent and allow to dry. Conductive or nonconductivesubstances on the tire such as mold release agents, or

33、paints, orboth, which could affect the results, must be removed. The useof organic solvents likely to attack the rubber is prohibited.9.2.4 Connect the ohmmeter leads to the metal loading plate(positive polarity) and to the wheel (negative polarity).

This schematic represents the effectivecircuit for testing. Alternatively, a connection can be made onthe loading fixture if the resistanc

35、e between this point and thebead seat of the wheel is no more than 10 .9.3 Preload Cycle:9.3.1 Load the tire-wheel assembly at the reference point tothe value specified in Section 8, hold for 1 min, and thenremove the load.9.3.2 Repeat the load-unload cycle a second time, as statedin 9.3.1. (This se

36、cond preload may be omitted provided thetester can demonstrate sufficiency of a single preload based onmeasurement capabilities and supporting data.) The secondload-unload cycle provides harmonization with other stan-dards.9.4 Measurement:9.4.1 If the range of the resistance is unknown, initiallyapp

37、ly 1000 V and decrease the voltage according to Table 1 asnecessary. Load the tire to the test load and immediately applythe test voltage in accordance with Table 1 (see 9.3.2 regardingsufficiency for testing following one load-unload cycle).9.4.2 Record the resistance measurement 3 min 6 10 s after

38、the voltage has been applied. The voltage and load are to beapplied continuously to the tire until after the final measure-ment is recorded.9.4.3 Unload the tire.9.4.4 Repeat the preload cycle and measurement in accor-dance with 9.3 and 9.4 for at least two additional circumfer-ential locations even

39、ly spaced around the tire.10.
