2、UNCIL OF CANADA The Standards Council of Canada is the co-ordinating body of the National Standards System, a federation of independent, autonomous organizations working towards the further development and improvement of voluntary standardization in the national interest. The principal objects of th

3、e Council are to foster arid promote voluntary standardization as a means of advancing the national economy, benefitting the health, safety and welfare of the public, assisting and protecting the consumer, facilitating domestic and international trade, and furthering international co-operation in th

4、e field of standards. A National Standard of Canada is a standard which has been approved by the Standards Council of Canada and one which reflects a reasonable agreement among the views of a number of capable individuals whose collective interests provide, to the greatest practicable extent, a bala

5、nce of representation of producers, users, consumers and others with relevant interests, as may be appropriate to the subject in hand. It normally is a standard which is capable of making a significant and timely contribution to the national interest. Approval of a Standard as a National Standard of

6、 Canada indicates that a standard conforms to the criteria and procedures established by the Standards Council of Canada. Approval does not refer to the technical content of the standard; this remains the continuing responsibility of the accredited standards-writing organization. Those who have a ne

7、ed to appty standards are encouraged to use National Standards of Canada whenever practicable. These standards are subject to periodic review; therefore, users are cautioned to obtain the latest edition from the organization preparing the standard. The responsibility for approving National Standards

8、 of Caiada rests with the Standards Council of Canada 45 OConnor Street, Suite 1200, OlTAWA, Ontario. CANADA KIP 6N7 THE CANADIAN GAS ASSOCIATION The Canadian Gas Association, which represents all segments of the natural gas industry, has been accredited by the Standards Council of Canada to prepare

9、 National Standards of Canada in the area of equipment for use with natural gas and propane. CGA, founded in 1907, represents distributors, transmission companies, producers, pipeline contractors, manufacturers, and allied servicB organizations. CGA set up a standards writing, inspection, and certif

10、ication programme in the mid-1950s at a time when natural gas service was being extended to Eastern Canada and the West Coast. The standards programme now embraces more than 90 standards for gas appliances and accessories. Committees that write the standards include representation from all interests

11、 and are so constituted that no one interest may dominate. The interests represented include consumers, manufacturers, utilities, governmental inspection authorities, and certification organizations. Standards are prepared using the consensus principle with effort applied to reconcile differing opin

12、ions. Government inspection authorities having jurisdiction also ballot on the standards as members of,the Interprovincial Gas Advisory Council (IGAC). The CGA Standards Advisory Committee (SAC) reviews committee structures and procedures to determine that a standard meets the criteria of the Standa

13、rds Council of Canada. This Standard has been accepted by the Standards Committee, IGAC and SAC. This Standard is intended to be used within the scope of the standard by the manufacturing sector, by those applying the equipment, or those responsible for its proper application. It is the responsibili

14、ty of the user to determine in each case that the Standard is suitable for the specific application. The Standards Committee and IGAC normally stipulate an effective date for the Standard, delayed sufficiently to permit suppliers to make adjustments. CGA Approvals, incorporated 1993, operates a cert

15、ification programme for fuel-fired products which is accepted by all Canadian inspection authorities and accredited by the Standards Council of Canada. In addition, through the Canadian Gas Research Institute (CGRI), the gas industry is pursuing the improvement of equipment and the development of ne

16、w products. Data from these projects is available to Standards Committees for review and consideration. Recommendations for new standards and revisions to existing standards may come from any source. These suggestions should be addressed to the Standards 5epartment of CGA Approvals, Inc. Published b

(4.11 kPa), METHOD OF TEST The thermal element of the thermostat shall be immersed in a suitable bath, the tempera- ture

38、 of which may be varied and maintained at any predetermined temperature. The inlet connection of the thermostat shall be connected to a suitable pneumatic system capable of supplying clean air or nitrogen at pressures up to 16.5 inches W.C. (4.11 kPa ). An airtight connection shall be made between t

39、he outlet of the thermostat and a flowmeter capable of indicating accurately a flow rate of 0.15 ft3/h (4.2 cm3/h). ft 5 /h (4.2 rm /h) when sublected to inlet gas When a bypass is incorporated as a part of the thermostat and the bypass gas is dis- charged into the main gas supply before the outlet

40、of the thermostat, the bypass shall be sealed. Adjustable type thermostats shall be set at a temperature corresponding to the calibra- tion reference point specified in clause 1.7.4 and Table 11. The temperature at which the thermostat valve will snap open shall be determined at equilibrium conditio

41、ns. Starting with the thermostat valve open, the temperature of the bath shall be varied in the appropriate direction until the valve snaps closed. The temperature shall then be varied in the opposite direction until it has reached a point 3*F (ZOC) from the temperature at which the thermostat valve

42、 will snap open, and shall then continue to be varied in the same direction at a rate not in excess of IF CO.SoC)/min until the valve snaps open. For thermostats having a narrow range of temperature adjustment, the 3oF/min (2*C/min) and 1F/min (O.SoC/min) figures may be made approx. smaller at the d

43、iscretion of the testing agency. With air or nitrogen supplied to the thermo- stat inlet at pressures up to and including 16.5 inches W.C. (4.11 kPa), the flowmeter shall be observed throughout the opening cycle, and the maximum flow rate through the thermostat prior to the instant when the valve sn

44、aps open shall be noted. deemed met if the rate of gas flow through the thermostat prior to the instant whenfthe valve snaps open does not exceed 0.15 ft /h (4.2 cm3/h) in any test. This provision shall be 2.5 CONTINUED OPERATION Thermostats shali withstand continued operation for the following numb

45、er of cycles of opening and closing the thermostatic valve without any mechanical failure, impairment of operation or any apparent damage, and without development of any leakage in excess of that permitted under Section 2.1 Calibration change, as a result of continued operation for the number of cyc

46、les indicated, shall not exceed -fi 1OoF (5.5OC) or S%(whichever is greater) of the temperature range, as shown by the dial marking or specified by the manufacturer, 3.1 - 8- 3.2.1 50 000 Cycles for graduating types 100 000 Cycles for snap-acting types The number of cycles shall be accurately determ

47、ined by means of a counter connected in series with the pressure switch. METHOD OF TEST The test shall be conducted at the maximum dial marking and at no time shall the temp- erature of the thermal element exceed by 10F (5.5OC) or 5% the maximum temperature as shown on the dial (whichever is greater

48、). At the end of this test the thermostat shall be subjected to the leakage test outlined in Section 2.1. In addition, the accuracy of calibration of the thermostat at the calibration reference point shall be deter- mined by the method outlined in Section 2.2. The change in calibration as a result o

49、f the contiqued operation test shall not exceed +lOF (5.5OC) or 5% (whichever is greater)ofthe temperature range as shown by the dial marking or specified by the manufacturer. Finally, the thermostat shall be disassembled and a complete examination made of all parts. No part shall show evidence of being damaged or excessively worn. - c This test shall be conducted with the com- ponent parts, except the knob or dial, main- tained within plus 5% of the temperature specified by the manufacturer.
