12、 1 of 2 pages 1. Scope 1.1 This standard describes a method for life testing incandescent projection lamps. It also defmes associ- ated terms and describes a method ofevaluating accept- ability. 1.2 The life test method specified is primarily for use by lamp manufacturers but can be used by any qual
13、i- fied testing laboratory provided all the test require- ments are met. 1.3 This standard is not intended to cover life testing 0 o co 51 c m 00 G of lamps in projection equipment, although it can be used as a guide for such testing.

Voltage shall be measured with a true rms voltmeter as close to the la
25、mp base terminals as is practical. 3.2.2 Lamps which are designed for special power requirements, such as soft turn-on, direct current, and nonsinusoidal alternating current shall be tested at the voltage conditions specified for those lamps. 3.3 Lamp Cooling. During normal use, natural heating up a
26、nd cooling down may have an effect on the life of an individual lamp. Therefore, to simulate normal use, lamp cooling during the ON-OFF duty cycle specified in 3.4 shall be such that: (1) The lamp base and seal temperatures during the ON time of the duty cycle do not exceed the maximum temperatures
27、specified by the lamp manufacturer (2) The bulb temperature during the ON time of the duty cycle does not exceed the maximum tempera- ture or fall below the minimum temperature specified by the lamp manufacturer (3) All components of the lamp cool down to or near room temperature during the OFF time
28、 of the duty cycle. 3.4 Test Cycle shall be tested with a 60-minute or less ON-OFF duty cycle, with 30 minutes as the maximum ON time. 3.4.2 Lamps having a rated life of more than 200 hours shall be tested with a 24-hour or less (but greater than 60 minutes) ON-OFF duty cycle, with 12 hours as the m

The special burning cycle shall be reported in the test documentation. 4. Test Procedure 4.1 A sa
31、mple of lamps shall be cycled in lamp fixtures under the conditions stated in Section 3 until the end of life as defined in 2.1. 4.2 The average life of a given sample of lamps shall be calculated as follows: x=A/B . where : x= average life of a given sample of lamps, in hours A = total accumulated
32、hours of ON time for all the B = number of lamps in the sample lamps in the sample 5. Acceptability 5.1 The lower limit of acceptable life of a given sample of lamps shall be calculated as follows: Y=CD where : Y = lower limit of acceptable life of a given sample C= rated life of lamps in the sample
33、, in hours D = lowest percentage of rated life, froin Table 1 5.2 In order to be acceptable, the average life of a given sample of lamps shall be not less than the lower limit of acceptable life as calculated in accordance with 5.1. EXAMPLE: A sample consisting of six lamps, each having a rated life
34、 of 50 hours, is tested, and the total number of hours of ON time for the six lamps is 222 hours. The average life of this sample = 22216 = 37 hours. The lower limit of acceptable life will be 50 X 69% = 34.5 hours. This sample is acceptable because the average life (37 hours) is not less than the l
35、ower limit of acceptable life (34.5 hours).
