18、itions For the purposes of this document, the definitions of EN 50290-1-2 apply. 4 Test methods 4.1 Equipment a) Appropriate transmission measuring apparatus for determination of changes in transmission performance. b) Climatic chamber: the climatic chamber shall be of a suitable size to accommodate

19、 the sample and its temperature shall be controllable to remain within 3 K of the specified testing temperature. It must incorporate means of admitting water vapour to, or generating water vapour within. One example of a suitable chamber is given in Clause 2, test Nb, of EN 60068-2-14. 4.2 Test samp

20、le The sample shall be of sufficient length as indicated in the relevant cable specification to achieve the desired accuracy. In order to gain reproducible values, it may be necessary for the cable sample to be brought into the climatic chamber as a loose coil or on a reel. BS EN 50289-4-5:2008- 5 -

21、 EN 50289-4-5:2008 General recommendations are: - the winding diameter shall be large enough to maintain the ability of the cable to accommodate differential expansion and contraction. The winding diameter should not be greater than the winding diameter used for the delivery; - any risk of cable exp

22、ansion (or contraction) limitation created by conditioning shall be suppressed. In particular special care should be taken to avoid residual tension on the cable during the test. For example a tight winding on a drum is not recommended as it can limit cable contraction at low temperature. On the oth

23、er hand, a tight multilayer winding can limit expansion at high temperature; - the use of loose winding is recommended such as large diameter coils, cushioned reels with a soft layer of zero tension facility device, etc.; - for optical cables, in order to limit the length of the cable under test, it

24、 is permissible to connect several fibres of the cable and to measure the connected fibres. The number of connections shall be limited and they should be located outside the climatic chamber. A sufficient number of fibres distributed over the cable structure should be tested, as defined in the relev

25、ant cable specification. 4.3 Procedure 4.3.1 Initial measurement The sample shall be visually inspected and a basic value for the transmission parameters at the initial temperature shall be determined. Pre-conditioning conditions shall be agreed between customer and supplier. 4.3.2 Cycling 4.3.2.1 T

26、he sample at ambient temperature shall be introduced into the climatic chamber that is at the same temperature. 4.3.2.2 The temperature in the chamber shall then be lowered to the appropriate low temperature TAat the appropriate rate of cooling. 4.3.2.3 After temperature stability in the chamber has

27、 been reached, the sample shall be exposed to the low temperature conditions for the appropriate period t1. 4.3.2.4 The temperature in the chamber shall then be raised to the appropriate high temperature TBat the appropriate rate of heating. 4.3.2.5 After temperature stability in the chamber has bee

28、n reached steam shall be admitted to or generated in the chamber. The humidity shall be maintained at 95 %, the sample shall be exposed to the high temperature conditions for the appropriate period t1. 4.3.2.6 The temperature in the chamber shall then be lowered to the ambient temperature at the app

29、ropriate rate of cooling. 4.3.2.7 This procedure constitutes one cycle (see Figure 1). 4.3.2.8 The sample shall be subjected to ten cycles unless otherwise required in the relevant cable specification. BS EN 50289-4-5:2008EN 50289-4-5:2008 - 6 - 4.3.2.9 Before removal from the chamber, the sample un

30、der test shall have reached temperature stability at ambient temperature. 4.3.2.10 If the relevant cable specification indicates different temperature ranges for storage and use, instead of two separate tests, a combined test procedure is allowed. 4.3.3 Recovery If the ambient temperature is not the

31、 standard atmospheric condition to be used for testing after removal from the chamber, the sample shall be allowed to attain temperature stability at this latter condition. The relevant cable specification may call for a specific recovery period for a given type of sample. 4.4 Requirements The accep

32、tance criteria for the test shall be as stated in the relevant cable specification. 4.5 Details to be specified - the permissible change of transmission parameter and inspection cheeks during cycling; - transmission parameters to be measured (they may include attenuation, electrical length); - value

33、s of TA, TBand t1and the rate of cooling or heating; - number of cycles if different of ten; - recovery period. 5 Test report The test report shall include - the period(s) at which inspection checks are carried out, - cable sample length, - type of winding: coil, reel, other (to be stated; in case o

34、f a cushioned reel, the type of cushioning and material used); winding diameter; single or multilayer winding; winding tension and zero tension facility device (if any), - type of measurement equipment, - temperature cycle diagram, - change of transmission parameters as a function of temperature cyc

35、ling, - pass/fail criteria.
