12、ECTROTECHNICAL COMMISSION _ OPTICAL FIBRES Part 1-30: Measurement methods and test procedures Fibre proof test FOREWORD 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees)
13、. The object of IEC is to promote international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports, Publicly Available Sp
14、ecifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non- governmental organizat
15、ions liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations. 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matte
16、rs express, as nearly as possible, an international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all interested IEC National Committees. 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
17、 Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any misinterpretation by any end user. 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC
18、National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter. 5) IEC itself

30、a specified tensile load as a proof test to continuous lengths of optical fibre. The tensile load is applied for as short a time as possible, yet sufficiently long to ensure the glass experiences the proof stress, typically much less than one second. This method is applicable to types A1, A2, A3 and
31、 B optical fibres. The object of this standard is to establish uniform requirements for the mechanical characteristic fibre proof test. 2 Normative references None. 3 Apparatus 3.1 General There are several possible machine designs, all of which perform the basic functions required for measuring fib
32、re proof with the indicated general operating requirements. Care should be used in the design so as to prevent coating damage. Two machine types are used: braked capstan type; dead weight type. Either machine may be used during the fibre-drawing process (on-line for coated fibre only), or as a separ
33、ate process step (off-line). NOTE There are dynamics with on-line screening, (different from off-line screening), which should be taken into account. 3.2 Fibre pay out Isolate the tensile load variations from the proof test region so as not to cause variations in the proof load. Do not permit the ap
34、plied proof stress to fluctuate below the value specified in the detail specification. 3.3 Proof test region With the exception of additional bend stress of up to 10 % of the proof stress, apply the proof stress uniformly through the cross-sectional area of the test sample. Ensure that the load- bea
35、ring members in this region are rigid (e. g. made of steel or aluminium). During testing, the tension-producing mechanism(s) shall not allow the proof stress to fluctuate below the value specified in the detail specification. 60793-1-30 IEC:2010(E) 7 Proof testing requires that a constant stress be
36、applied sequentially along the full length of fibre. A break rate (failures per unit length) is statistically expected. It is carried out during fibre manufacturing, on-line as part of the fibre drawing and coating process, or off-line as part of the testing process. The stress history of proof test
37、 stressing is as follows: stress loading from near-zero to the proof test stress during a load time; constant proof test stress during a dwell time; stress unloading from the proof test stress back down to near-zero during an unload time. 3.4 Fibre take-up Isolate the tensile load variations from th
38、e proof test region so as not to cause variations in the proof load. Ensure that the applied proof stress does not fluctuate below the value specified in the detail specification. 3.5 Load and unload The load and unload regions occur on both sides of the proof test region. Tension in the fibre ramps
39、 up from being under constant low tension, in the pay-out region, to the full load in the proof test region. Tension in the fibre then ramps down, from the proof test region, to a constant low tension in the take-up region. The unload zone is the arc formed by the two tangent points in the guide whe
40、re the fibre finally leaves the loading area. (For example, unloading across 90 of a 150 mm diameter wheel at a speed of about 12 m/s yields an unloading time of about 10 ms.) Control the unload time to some maximum, agreed between user and manufacturer. Accomplish ramping up and ramping down as qui
41、ckly as possible. 3.6 Minimum bending radii All radii over which the test sample passes need to be of sufficient size so that the maximum stress and time at that stress shall not significantly degrade the strength of the sample. 3.7 Typical equipment design 3.7.1 Introduction The following examples
42、illustrate some typical designs. Other designs may be used, provided the operating requirements in 3.2 to 3.6 are met. 3.7.2 Braked capstan type A specific apparatus illustrating these requirements is shown in Figure 1. The fibre is paid out with constant low tension. The rewinding after the proof t
43、est is also done with constant tension. The levels of the pay-off and take-up tensions are adjustable. The proof test load is applied to the fibre between the brake and drive capstans by creating a speed difference between the capstans. Two belts are used to prevent slippage at the capstans. One des
44、ign can be that the high precision tension gauge measures the load on the fibre and controls the speed difference to achieve the required proof test load. The load level and operating speed of the equipment can be independently set. Another design can be that the difference in speeds between the two
45、 capstans is set and controlled directly according to the desired fibre elongation (strain), without tension measurements. NOTE The relationship between stress and strain can be found in IEC/TR 62048 (see Bibliography). 8 60793-1-30 IEC:2010(E) Precision tension gauge Brake capstan Drive capstan Dan

The pay-out sub- assembly has various guide rollers and pulleys, plus a motorised traversing mechanism. The pay-out dancer pulley keeps the sample under just enough
49、tension to run straight and true to the proof test region, with minimum tension fluctuations. The pay-out capstan is the start of the proof test region. This capstan is driven and synchronized with the take-up capstan. Two belts are required to hold the fibre sample firmly against the pay-out and take-up capstans so that there is no slippage at the entrance to, and exit from, the proof test region. The dancer pulley may consist of two pulleys, one
