LABORATORY REQUIREMENTS 4.1 A multiple compartment lamp or multiple lamps may be used. 4.2 The following sections from SAE J575 are a part of this document. 4.2.1 Section 3 Definitions. 4.2.2 Section 3.2 Bulbs. 4.2.3 Section 4.1 Vibration Test. 4.2.4 Section 4.2 Moisture Test. 4.2.5 Section 4.3
12、 Dust Test. 4.2.6 Section 4.4 Corrosion Test. 4.2.7 Section 4.5 Photometry. 4.2.8 Section 4.6 Warpage Test on Devices with Plastic Components, except that the lamp is to be operated 5 min on and 5 min off until the total time equals 1 h. If the tail lamp and/or side marker lamps are incorporated in
13、the same device, they shall be operated continuously during the test. (The test is to be conducted in a circulating air type oven.)

14、 MAR2011 Page 3 of 5 4.3 Plastic Materials Any plastic materials used in optical parts shall comply with the requirements set forth in SAE J576. 4.4 Color Test The color of the light from a tail lamp shall be red. (See SAE J578.) 4.5 If the stop lamp is optically combined with the tail lamp and a tw
15、o-filament bulb is used, the bulb shall have an indexing base and the socket shall be designed so that bulbs with nonindexing bases cannot be used. As a matter of information, attention is called to typical sockets shown in SAE J567. 4.6 Photometric Requirements 4.6.1 All beam candela measurements s
16、hall be made with the incandescent filament of the signal lamp at least 3.05 m (10 ft) from the photometer screen. The H-V axis shall be taken as parallel to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle. When compartments or lamps are photometered together, the H-V axis shall intersect the midpoint between
17、the optical center (filament). 4.6.2 Beam candela measurements of multiple compartment lamp(s) or multiple lamp arrangements shall be made by either of the following methods: a. All compartments or lamps may be photometered together, provided that a line from the optical center (filament) of each co
18、mpartment or lamp to the center of the photometer sensing device does not make an angle of more than 0.6 degree with the photometer (H-V) axis. b. Each compartment or lamp may be photometered separately by aligning its axis with the photometer and adding the value at each test point. 4.6.3 Table 1 l

NOTE 2: Lamps designed to operate on the vehicle through a resistor or equivalent shall be photometered with the listed design voltage of the design source applied across the combination of resistance and
22、 filament. NOTE 3: A multiple device signaling unit gives its indication by two or more separately lighted sections which may be separate lamps or areas that are joined by common parts. The photometric values are to apply when all sections which provide the same signal are considered as a unit. NOTE
23、 4: When a tail lamp is combined with the stop lamp, the stop lamp shall not be less than three times the candela of the tail lamp at any test point on or above horizontal; except that at H-V, H-5L, H-5R, and 5U-V, the stop lamp shall not be less than five times the candela of the tail lamp. 5.

25、from IHS-,-,-SAE J278 Reaffirmed MAR2011 Page 5 of 5 Visibility of the stop lamp shall not be obstructed by any part of the snowmobile throughout the photometric test angles for the lamp, unless the lamp is designed to comply with all photometric and visibility requirements with these obstructions c
26、onsidered. Signal from lamps on both sides of the snowmobile shall be visible through a horizontal angle from 45 degrees to the left to 45 degrees to the right. Where more than one lamp or optical area is lighted on each side of the snowmobile, only one such area on each side need comply. To be cons
27、idered visible, the lamp must provide an unobstructed projected illuminated area of outer lens surface, excluding reflex, at least 13 cm2(2 in2) in extent, measured at 45 degrees to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle. 6.
