42、ll, materials conforming to this specification may be damaged by heating to too high a temperature, reheating,or by heating for too long a time. Care should be exercised to secure equipment for heating and application that is suitable for thepurpose and approved by the manufacturer of the material.
43、The material should be heated in a kettle or melter constructed as adouble boiler, with the space between the inner and outer shells filled with oil or other heat transfer medium. Thermostatic controlfor the heat transfer medium shall be provided and shall have sufficient sensitivity to maintain sea
44、lant temperature within themanufacturers specified application temperature range. Temperature indicating devices shall have intervals no greater than 5F(2.8C) and shall be calibrated as required to assure accuracy. The melter shall have a continuous sealant agitation and mixingsystem to provide unif
45、orm viscosity and temperature of material being applied. If equipped with an application system to deliversealant to the pavement, the melter shall incorporate a recirculation pump or other means of maintaining sealant temperature inthe delivery system. Sealant that has been damaged due to overheati
46、ng, reheating or prolonged heating may experience pooradhesion, softening or bleeding, difficult application, or jelling in the melter. Direct heating must not be used.D6690 153X1.2 Pavement joints in new construction for application of material covered by this specification should be dry, clean of
47、all scale,dirt, dust, curing compound, and other foreign matter. The sidewalls of the joint space to be sealed should then be thoroughlysandblasted, blown clean of loose sand by high-pressure air, and sealed by use of the melter-applicator described in X1.1.X1.3 When material covered by this specifi
48、cation is used for maintenance or resealing of joints that have contained either similaror dissimilar sealing material, it is recommended that the joint be dry, cleaned thoroughly with a plow, router, wire brush, concretesaw, or other suitable tool or tools designed for the purpose of neatly cleanin
49、g pavement joints. Loose material should be blownout. The sidewalls of the joint space to be sealed should be thoroughly sandblasted, blown free of loose sand with high-pressureair and then sealed with material by use of the melter-applicator described in X1.1.X1.4 The use of a backer material or bond breaker in the bottom of the joint to be filled with material covered by this specificationis recommended to control the depth of the sealant and achieve the desired shape factor, and to support the sealant
