A superscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the U.S. Department of Defense.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers the requirement
3、s for Halon1301 as a fire-fighting medium.1.2 This specification does not address the fire-fightingequipment or hardware that employs Halon 1301 or theconditions of employing such equipment (for example,handhelds, fixed installations, etc.).1.3 This specification does not address the storage ortrans
4、portation of Halon 1301. Storage, handling, and transpor-tation issues are addressed in Practice D5631.1.4 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated ineach system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, eachsystem shall be u

Combiningvalues from the two systems may result in non-conformancewith the standard.1.5 The following safety hazards caveat pertains only to thetest methods portion, Section 6, of this specification: Thisstandard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns,
6、if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the userof this standard to establish appropriate safety and healthpractices and determine the applicability of regulatory limita-tions prior to use.

19、solubilityof air in the liquid phase is extremely low and air is notsignificant as a liquid phase contaminant. Non-condensablegases are in some instances termed non-absorbable gases.4. Material Requirements4.1 Type IMixtures of Halon 1301 and nitrogen:4.1.1 The nitrogen (N2) partial pressure shall b
20、e such thatthe safe working pressure of the receiving vessel is notexceeded. To prevent excessive pressure, the fill density of theHalon 1301 within a container should not exceed that neededto achieve complete filling of the container at the maximumenvisaged storage temperature. For example, for a U
21、.S. DOT4BA 500 cylinder, the nitrogen partial pressure shall notexceed 161 psi at 70 F 12.1 bar at 21 C for a 70 lb/ft31121kg/m3 fill density, which yields a total pressure of 360 psig at70 F 25.8 bar at 21 C. For this example, the safe workingpressure of the 4BA500 cylinder is not exceeded for temp
22、era-tures below 130 F 54 C. (See Practice D5631.)

23、the total pressure in theHalon 1301 container, partial pressure of the N2, the fill densityof the Halon 1301 within the container, and the maximum safestorage temperature shall be part of the material analysis(certification). The pressure shall be reported in pound-forceper square inch gauge (prefer
24、red) or bar. The fill density shallbe reported in pounds per cubic foot at 70 F (preferred) orkilograms per cubic metre at 21 C. The maximum safe storagetemperature of the Halon 1301 container shall be reported indegrees Fahrenheit (preferred) or in degrees Celsius and shallconform to applicable reg
