The main frame shall be one continuous length of tube bent to form the handle-bar and sides or shall consi
18、st of two tubes welded together in the middle of the handle-bar. It shall have two diagonal braces welded to the sides to support the base plate and to provide the socket or two swivel castors (see figure 1). A cross brace shall be welded to the diagonal braces near the castor socket ends, as shown
19、in figure 1. The tubes shall be free from wrinkles, and any flattening or reduction in diameter shall not exceed 4 % of the actual outside diameter of the tube. 3.5 Base plate The base plate shall be of mild steel or stainless steel (as relevant) of nominal thickness at least 6 mm attached to the bo
20、ttoms of the main frame and diagonal braces by fillet welds extending around the full circumference of the tubes (see figure 1). The trolley shall, when unloaded, be able to stand on its base plate on a level surface without tipping over. SANS 895:2008 Edition 2.1 5 3.6 Cylinder cradle The cylinder
21、shall be held in position on the trolley by two cradle brackets (of tube of nominal outside diameter 20 mm) that are provided with tight-fitting, steel cover straps. The cover straps shall be so pivoted at one end that they can be swung out of the way during loading and unloading. The cover straps s
22、hall each have an open slot at the free end to engage and lock on a 10 mm diameter thumb screw or wing nut that is so designed that it cannot be removed from its fitting. 3.7 Flowmeter rail Unless an alternative arrangement is specified by the purchaser, a steel tube of nominal outside diameter 20 m
23、m, or a steel rod of nominal diameter 10 mm, shall be welded to the main frame, in the position indicated in figure 1, to serve as a rail to which a flowmeter can be clamped. 3.8 Wheel axles The wheel axle shall be of 20 mm diameter steel rod and shall be welded to the main frame in a position such
24、that the wheels are lifted off the floor to a height of at least 5 mm when the trolley rests on the base plate. 3.9 Wheels and castors The trolley shall be fitted with two 150 mm diameter by 40 mm wide hard-rubber-tyred wheels with ball or roller bearings and two 75 mm diameter swivel castors comply
25、ing with the requirements of SANS 621. 3.10 Water bottle cradle If so specified by the purchaser, a cradle of 5 mm diameter mild steel rod shall be fitted or welded to the frame to hold a water bottle of capacity 1 L. 3.11 Finish 3.11.1 General All surfaces shall be smooth and free from sharp edges,
26、 buckles, dents, pits, deep scratches, crimp, and other defects. Mild steel surfaces shall have a smooth enamel finish or a powder coating finish of the colour specified by the purchaser. Stainless steel surfaces shall have a medium directional satin finish or a bright polished finish not inferior t
27、o that of the relevant reference samples held by the South African Bureau of Standards1). 3.11.2 Enamel finishes a) Thickness of film. When tested in accordance with 6.2.2, the thickness of the enamel film shall be at least 30 m and if a primer is used the thickness of the system shall be at least 6
28、0 m. b) Scratch resistance. The enamel film shall so withstand scratching with a 1 mm diameter hardened steel ball point under a load of 2 000 g, drawn across it at a constant speed of 30 mm per second, that, when examined under a lens giving seven magnifications, the scratch shows no jagged edges o
29、r exposure of the underlying metal. 1) Manufacturers may, on application to the South African Bureau of Standards, inspect the reference samples. SANS 895:2008 Edition 2.1 6 c) Corrosion resistance. When the enamelled parts are tested in accordance with 6.2.3, there shall be no visible defect and af
30、ter the paint has been stripped the underlying metal shall show no signs of corrosion. 3.11.3 Powder coatings A powder coating finish shall comply with the relevant requirements of SANS 778. 4 Marking 4.1 Marking The manufacturers name, trade name, or trademark shall be legibly and indelibly marked

The marking shall be at least 5 cm2in area. 5 Sampling and compliance with the specification2) 5.1 Sampling The following sampling procedure shall be a
32、pplied in determining whether a lot complies with the requirements of the specification. The samples so taken shall be deemed to represent the lot. 5.1.1 Sample for inspection From the lot take at random the number of trolleys shown in column 2 of table 1 relative to the appropriate lot size shown i
33、n column 1. 5.1.2 Sample for testing From the lot take at random the number of trolleys shown in column 3 of table 1 relative to the appropriate lot size shown in column 1.

34、tion applies to the sampling for inspection and testing before acceptance or rejection of single lots (consignments) in cases where no information about the implementation of quality control or testing during manufacture is available to help in assessing the quality of the lot. It is also used as th
35、e procedure for adjudicating in cases of dispute. SANS 895:2008 Edition 2.1 7 5.2 Compliance with the specification The lot shall be deemed to comply with the requirements of the specification if after inspection and testing of the samples drawn in accordance with 5.1 no defective is found. 6 Inspec
36、tion and methods of test 6.1 Inspection Inspect the samples taken in accordance with 5.1.1 for compliance with the requirements of sections 3 and 4 that are not tested in terms of 6.2. 6.2 Methods of test 6.2.1 General Test the samples taken in accordance with 5.1.2 for compliance with the requireme
37、nts of 3.11. 6.2.2 Thickness of enamel film a) Apparatus3). A suitable magnetic flux type apparatus. b) Procedure Standardize the apparatus by laying a non-magnetic shim (of approximately the same thickness and shape as those of the paint film on the sample) on clean steel of the same thickness as a
38、nd of the identical shape to those of the sample. Then place the operating head of the apparatus on the film to be tested and read off the thickness. Repeat the reading at least three times at different places (four times in all) on the film surface and record the average of the readings. 6.2.3 Corr
39、osion resistance of enamel film Use the corrosion resistance test described in SANS 778. 3) Details of a type of apparatus suitable for this test may be obtained from the South African Bureau of Standards.
