Summary of Test Method4.1 This test method consists of applying a predeterminedload to an aerial personnel device while it is being monitoredby
36、 sensors that are sensitive to acoustic emissions (AE) causedby active defects. These acoustic emmissions can be generatedby, but are not limited to, the following: crack nucleationmovement or propagation in the metal components; or matrixcrazing, de-lamination or fiber breakage of the fiberglassrei
37、nforced plastic (FRP) material; or both.4.2 The aerial personnel device is loaded at a uniform rateuntil a predetermined load is reached, which is held for aperiod of time. The load is removed and the cycle is repeated.Acoustic emissions are monitored during both cycles and thedata are evaluated.4.3
38、 The test load used during an acoustic emission test on anaerial personnel device shall be two times the rated platformcapacity.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method provides a means of evaluating acous-tic emissions generated by the rapid release of energy fromlocalized sources within an aeri
39、al personnel device undercontrolled loading. The resultant energy releases occur duringintentional application of a controlled predetermined load.These energy releases can be monitored and interpreted byqualified individuals.5.2 This test method permits testing of the major compo-nents of an aerial
40、personnel device under controlled loading.This test method utilizes objective criteria for evaluation andmay be discontinued at any time to investigate a particular areaof concern or prevent a fault from continuing to ultimatefailure.5.3 This test method provides a means of detecting acousticemissio
41、n sources that may be defects or irregularities, or both,affecting the structural integrity or intended use of the aerialpersonnel device.5.4 Sources of acoustic emission found with this testmethod shall be evaluated by either more refined acousticemission test methods or other nondestructive techni
42、ques(visual, liquid penetrant, radiography, ultrasonics, magneticparticle, etc.). Other nondestructive tests may be required tolocate defects present in aerial personnel devices.FIG. 1 Articulating Aerial Device Nomenclature DiagramF914/F914M 1035.5 Defective areas found in aerial personnel devices

Acoustic Emission Instrumentation7.1 The AE instrument shall be capable of data acquisitionin discrete channels within a frequency band of 20 to 200 kHZ.The number ofAE instrument channels shall be determined bythe attenuation characteristics of the aerial device in order toprovide
47、coverage of those components identified in Table 1.Adetailed description of instrumentation characteristics is in-cluded in Annex A1.NOTE 3Experience has shown that a minimum of eight channels ofdata acquisition is required.The instrument should be capable of recordingthe following: time, events, co
48、unts, amplitude and load. Hard copy recordsshall be provided by the instrument or available through a direct interface.NOTE 4A maximum of two sensors may be commoned on any onechannel.8. Test Preparation8.1 Prior to the AE test, perform a visual observation of theaerial lift device to ensure that th
49、e components to be tested arefree from any condition that may prohibit the test or adverselyaffect test results.8.2 The components to be monitored in an aerial personneldevice shall include but not be limited to those specified inTable 1. Additional channels and sensors may be used tosupplement the minimum test requirements and improve loca-tion resolution.8.3 Position the sensors on the FRP and metal portions ofthe components identified in Table 1. The extent of thecoverage is determined by the number of sensors used and t
