23、des a practical method for evaluating fibre performance in a defined environment. The purpose of this standard is to define a test that determines the suitability of sub-category A1a to A1d multimode fibres and class B and C single-mode fibres to withstand the environmental condition of immersion in

24、 distilled or demineralized water which may occur in actual use, storage and/or transport. The test is primarily intended to permit the observation of effects of immersion in water over a given period. This procedure is conducted in accordance with IEC 60068-2-18, Test R. NOTE The applicability of t

25、his test to other fibre categories is under study. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

28、pecification for class C single-mode intraconnection fibres 3 Apparatus 3.1 Water tank The apparatus consists of a water tank filled with water. Use distilled, demineralized or de-ionized water which has a pH of between 5,0 and 8,0. 3.2 Other apparatus Additional apparatus may be necessary to perfor

29、m the examinations and measurements (or as specified in the detail specification). BS EN 60793-1-53:2014 6 60793-1-53 IEC:2014 4 Sampling and specimens To ensure the required repeatability on optical measurements, the length of the specimen shall be at least 1 000 m for fibre sub-categories A1a to A

30、1d, and at least 2 000 m for fibre class B and C. The amount of the specimen outside of the tank shall be minimized and, if it exceeds 10 % of the overall specimen length, this should be reported. The preparation of the specimen shall have no detrimental effect on the fibre whilst under test conditi

31、ons. Unless otherwise specified, the fibre sample should be loosely coiled and that the fibre ends are kept out of the water. The specimen may be coiled horizontally or vertically, with a minimum bend diameter of 150 mm to avoid any macrobend effects. A length of the control specimen shall be remove

32、d prior to the test to enable the completion of required mechanical measurements for comparison to measurements made after the test. 5 Procedure 5.1 General The specimen is placed in a tank which is filled with water held at 23 C 5 C, and held there for 30 days. The attenuation and coating strip for

33、ce of the specimen are then monitored. Conduct the procedure in accordance with IEC 60068-2-18, Test R, with the “head of water” being not applicable (the head of water is used to test for “water tightness” of electrotechnical products, but it is not required in this application). 5.2 Measurements O

34、ptical measurements 5.2.1Attenuation measurement shall be carried out at the wavelength specified in the relevant specification using either IEC 60793-1-40:2001, Annex B (insertion loss) or IEC 60793-1-40:2001, Annex C (backscattering) before, during (once the specimen has stabilized at the specifie

35、d temperature) and after the test. Attenuation changes shall be recorded. Other optical measurements may be required if specified in the relevant product specification. Mechanical measurements 5.2.2The fibre coating strip force shall be measured before and after the test, using the method described

36、in IEC 60793-1-32. The control specimen (see Clause 4) is used to evaluate the change in strippability. 5.3 Preconditioning If specified, precondition the specimen as required by the detail specification. 5.4 Conditioning Not applicable. 5.5 Recovery Unless otherwise required by the relevant specifi

37、cation, the specimen shall remain under standard atmospheric condition for recovery for a period greater than 12 h but not more than 48 h. The detail specification may call for measurements during recovery. If required, the detail specification shall specify the measurements to be taken and when to

38、take them. BS EN 60793-1-53:201460793-1-53 IEC:2014 7 6 Pass/fail criteria The applicable specification limits can be found in the relevant sectional specification of IEC 60793-2-10 for A1 fibres, IEC 60793-2-50 for B fibres and IEC 60793-2-60 for C fibres. 7 Results 7.1 Information to be provided w
