21、465:2015 (E) 4 Introduction The relevant weather factors with regard to material testing both outdoors and in devices include natural and simulated solar radiation, heat, humidity and rain as well as pollutants in the air. Different technologies are available to simulate natural solar radiation in a

22、 weathering device. One category of exposure devices, which include xenon-arc weathering devices and devices using metal halide gas discharge radiation source, is designed to simulate the entire spectral range of natural solar radiation. In these instruments and like natural solar radiation, the ult

23、raviolet, the visible and the infrared radiation during exposure increases the specimen surface temperature above the ambient air temperature of the surrounding air. As an influencing weathering variable, heat is characterized by the sample surface temperature. Absorbed solar radiation can heat the

24、surface to a temperature up to a T of more than 40 K above ambient air. The possible surface temperature is characterized by a white panel or white standard temperature as its lower limit, and a black panel or standard temperature as its upper limit. It is then assumed that the actual sample tempera

25、ture lies between the two cited limits. Surface temperatures of specific specimens can be higher or lower (e.g. massive black polymers and transparent polymers). The white panel/standard and black panel/standard temperatures can be easily determined using conventional measuring techniques. In one ca

26、tegory of exposure devices, only the short UV range of the natural solar radiation is simulated with fluorescent UV radiation source radiation. In these devices, there is no significant increase in surface temperature of a specimen, because these radiation sources have no significant visible and inf

27、rared radiation. An additional category of exposure devices uses a mercury medium pressure radiation source to induce critical photo-degradation reactions that are typical of natural solar exposures. Even this specific radiation source does not provide significant visible and infrared radiation. For

28、 this reason, as in the previous category, these exposures do not increase significantly the specimen surface temperature above ambient. NOTE For fluorescent UV and mercury medium pressure radiation sources, the ambient air temperature surrounding the specimen is the main variable influencing the sp

29、ecimen temperature. The relative humidity may have a small effect on the specimen temperature as well. Black/white standard thermometers and black/white panel thermometers are defined in EN ISO 4892-1. They are used in weathering applications to characterize the temperature level (maximum and minimu

30、m temperature) under given weathering exposure conditions. The accuracy of these thermometers depends on their design and especially on a well-defined and traceable calibration method. Such methods are the content of this standard. Two methods are defined in this standard. Each method requires calib

31、ration of a black panel/standard or white panel/standard to a traceable reference from a national metrological institute (NMI). Historically, the contact calibration method (e.g. calibration in a water bath) has been used for weathering applications: recently a contactless calibration method has bee

32、n developed. Any requirement to use one method versus the other method is not justified, and both calibration methods are suitable for most weathering applications. However, because of a lack of data comparing the two methods as of the time of publication of this standard, preference or equivalency

33、of results for these two methods is unknown. Both methods may provide different calibration results that are not interchangeable. DIN EN 16465:2015-12EN 16465:2015 (E) 5 The European Committee for Standardization (CEN) draws attention to the fact that it is claimed that compliance with Method B of t

37、 EN 16465:2015-12EN 16465:2015 (E) 6 1 Scope This European Standard specifies traceable calibration methods of black-standard thermometers (BST), white-standard thermometers (WST), black-panel thermometers (BPT) and white-panel thermometers (WPT) for use in natural and artificial weathering: method

38、A, a contact method, uses a traceable calibrated resistance standard thermometer; method B, a contactless method, uses a traceable calibrated pyrometer. A basic design of types of the thermometers is described in EN ISO 4892-1. NOTE 1 Historically method A has been used for weathering applications f

39、or many years: Method B has been developed recently. Both methods are qualified for weathering applications. They may provide different calibration results that are not interchangeable. NOTE 2 Annex A gives information on the characteristics of BST/WST and BPT/WPT. 2 Normative references The followi

The thermometer to be calibrated is exposed to natural or artificial radiation under controlled conditions and adjusted to the temperature reading of an independent and traceable temperature measuring system. Method A is a contact method using a master reference thermometer tr

48、aceable to a NMI standard thermometer and method B is a non-contact method using a master reference pyrometer traceable to a NMI standard thermometer. Any requirement to prefer one method versus the other method is not permitted. However, because of a lack of data comparing the two methods as of the

49、 time of publication of this standard, equivalency of results of these two methods is unknown. 6 Method A 6.1 General This calibration method consists of the calibration (contact method) and additional verification in a test chamber with exposure to a radiation source. 6.2 Apparatus 6.2.1 Master reference thermometer A master reference thermometer that is calibrated traceable to a national metrology institute (NMI) and/or a designated institute
