11、specified in EN 3841-100, in connection with the applicable product standard. The chamber volume (2 25 i) shall ensure that the circuit breakers are evenly exposed to the explosive mixture. The test chamber shall be fitted with a spark plug which allows the combustibility of the mixture to be verifi
12、ed when the chamber is closed. The test chamber shall provide a facility to switch on the circuit breakers when the chamber is closed (for manual or remote operation). 3.1.2 Test circuit According to figure 1 with d.c. and a.c., single-pole. According to figure 2 with a.c., three-pole. 1) Endorsemen

15、4: 2003 3.1.3 Test mixture Gas mixture of air and fuel vapour (grade of fuel 100/130 octane gasoline or propane or standard hexane, with a volumetric ratio of 13:l) following IS0 7137. 3.1.4 Test temperature The test temperature shall be 70 “C. 3.1.5 The pressure in the test chamber shall be atmosph
16、eric pressure at normal altitude. Pressure in the test chamber 3.2 Procedure The test chamber shall be heated to the temperature and filled with the explosive mixture. (the explosive mixture may also be produced by injecting the fuel quantity proportionate to the chamber volume, provided that an ade
17、quate mixing and even distribution of the mixture are ensured). The circuit breakers shall be stored in the explosive atmosphere for 3 h prior to break operations. The operations as outlined in the product standard shall be carried out at intervals of 1 h. The mixture shall remain explosive during t
18、his period. 3.3 Requirement The explosive mixture shall not ignite when the circuit breakers are operated. On completion of the operations, combustibility of the mixture shall be verified by means of the spark plug. If the mixture does not ignite, the test shall be repeated with new test samples.
