32、ample 5.1.1 Carry out the tests described in 5.4 on one test sample. 5.1.2 Carry out the tests described in 5.5 on one test sample. 5.2 Conditioning Dry the test samples for at least 24 h in an atmosphere of (50 5) C and less than 20 % relative humidity. Then condition these test samples in an atmos

33、phere of (23 2) C and (50 2) % relative humidity for at least 72 h. Then start testing these samples at a temperature of (23 5) C within 10 min. 5.3 Diameter Measure the actual diameter deffunder a load of (4 0,05) kg after the latter has been applied for (60 15) s. Ensure that the cross-sectional a

34、rea of the accessory cord is not subjected to any deformation during the measurement. Take the measurements in two directions around the diameter, starting at points 90 apart, at each of three locations approximately 300 mm apart. The length of the contact areas of the measuring instrument shall be

35、(50 1) mm. Report the arithmetic mean of the six measurements, to the nearest 0,1 mm. BS EN 564:2014EN 564:2014 (E) 6 5.4 Determination of tensile strength Carry out the determination of the tensile strength by using a tensile testing machine and fixing devices in accordance with EN ISO 2307:2010, 5

36、.1. The minimum free length between attachment points shall be 200 mm. Determine the loading speed, v, as a function of the free length of the test sample, using Formula (2): v = (0,5 0,1) l (2) where v is the loading speed in millimetres per minute; l is the free length in millimetres between point

37、s of attachment. 5.5 Determination of mass per unit length Carry out the test with a minimum free length between points of attachment of 1 200 mm. NOTE There is no requirement for any particular type of fixing device. Load the test sample without shock by means of a (4 0,05) kg test mass. Retain the

38、 load for (60 15) s and mark a reference length of (1 000 1) mm, with a distance between the marks and the points of attachment of at least 100 mm. Release the load and cut the marked part from the test sample and determine its mass to the nearest 0,1 g. Report the mass per unit length in grams per

39、metre, to at least two significant figures. There is no specific requirement for mass per unit length, but it can be marked on the drum or packaging of the accessory cord (see Clause 6). 6 Marking The drum or production-line packaging of accessory cords shall be marked with at least the following it

40、ems: a) the number of this European Standard, i.e. EN 564; b) name of the manufacturer or its authorized representative; c) nominal diameter of the accessory cord; d) tensile strength which the manufacturer ensures at the time of manufacturing; e) if accessory cord is supplied on a drum and consists

41、 of more than one piece, the number of pieces shall be stated on the drum; f) year of manufacture; g) Optionally: the mass per unit length.

Determine the loading speed, v, as a function of the free length of the test sample, using Formula (2): v = (0,5 0,1) l (2) where v is the loading speed in millimetres per min

43、ute; l is the free length in millimetres between points of attachment. 5.5 Determination of mass per unit length Carry out the test with a minimum free length between points of attachment of 1 200 mm. NOTE There is no requirement for any particular type of fixing device. Load the test sample without
