11、 Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the
12、right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. Draft Inte
13、rnational Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an InternationalStandard requires approval by at least75% of the member bodies casting a vote. International Standard ISO5682-1 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 23, Tracto
14、rs and machinery for agriculture and forestry, Subcommittee SC6, Equipment for crop protection. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO5682-1:1981), which has been technically revised. ISO5682 consists of the following parts, under the general title Equipment for crop protect
15、ion Spraying equipment: Part 1: Test methods for sprayer nozzles; Part 2: Test methods for hydraulic sprayers; Part 3: Test method for volume/hectare adjustment systems of agricultural hydraulic pressure sprayers.

36、n discharge rate of20 complete nozzles. 7.2 Variations in discharge rate according to pressure Perform this test with a nozzle for which the discharge rate is closest to the mean value determined in7.1. 7.2.1 Test liquid Use the test liquid described in4.1. 7.2.2 Pressure Perform the tests at the ma
37、ximum and minimum pressures indicated by the manufacturer and at least two intermediate pressures. The differences between two consecutive pressures shall be less than or equal to0,5MPa(5bar). 7.2.3 Measurements Measure the discharge rate, in litres per minute, at each of the pressures indicated in7
38、.2.2, with an error of less than1%. The measuring time, measured with a watch(5.1.5) and with an error of less than1s, shall be greater than or equal to60s. 7.2.4 Results The results shall be presented in the test report in the form of either a graph in which the discharge rate is indicated on the y
39、-axis and the pressure on the x-axis, or a table. 7.3 Distribution of the spray Perform this test with a nozzle for which the discharge rate is closest to the mean value determined in7.1. 7.3.1 Test liquid Use the test liquid described in4.1. 7.3.2 Pressure Perform the test at the maximum and minimu
40、m pressures stated by the manufacturer and at least two intermediate pressures. 7.3.3 Position of the nozzle During the test, the nozzle shall be positioned vertically above a ridge of the distribution bench and in its normal working attitude in order to direct its spray onto the bench. If the manuf
41、acturer indicated one particular position, the test shall be made in this position. If the manufacturer states an optimum height for use, carry out the test at the height stated and150mm above and below this height. If the manufacturer does not indicate any heights, carry out the tests at the follow
42、ing heights:400mm,500mm,600mm,700mm and, if necessary, at300mm and800mm. The height shall be measured between the edge of the ridge and the orifice of the nozzle. Flat spray nozzles shall be positioned for the test so that the longest dimension of the spray pattern is perpendicular to the grooves. C
43、one nozzles shall be tested in the following configurations (seeFigure 3): a) in their initial configuration; b) in a second configuration resulting from a 90 rotation of the nozzle disc or nut in its assembly; c) when the spiral can turn in relation to the disc with the nozzle reassembled with the
44、swirl plate turned through90 in relation to configurationb).BS6356-1:1997 BSI 09-1999 5 7.3.4 Measurements Stop the test as soon as the amount of liquid collected in one of the tubes has reached90% of its capacity. Record the quantities collected in each tube. 7.3.5 Results Represent the distributio
45、n of the spray by a graph or a table indicating the values as percentages of the mean quantity of liquid collected in all the grooves. 7.4 Variations in flow rate and spray distribution due to abrasion (accelerated wear test) This test does not prejudge the life of the nozzle in the actual condition
46、s of use, but is used to compare the resistance of the nozzles to wear and the resulting deterioration in their distribution. It shall be carried out on five nozzles, for which the discharge rate is closest to the mean value determined in7.1. 7.4.1 Test liquid Use the test liquid described in4.2. Th
47、e temperature of the liquid shall be(20 3) C throughout the test. Ensure that the abrasive material is always well dispersed throughout the liquid (for example, by means of a controlled escape of compressed air with a pressure such that after5min of operation, there is no longer any deposit at the b
48、ottom of the tank). Ascertain, if need be by a preliminary test, that the test liquid retains its abrasiveness in relation to the material of the nozzles throughout the duration of the test defined in7.4.3. If it does not, replace the abrasive liquid as often as necessary. NOTEA preliminary test can
49、 be carried out using identical metering orifices from the same batch and manufactured from a suitable material for the nozzles being tested, measuring the increase in discharge rate after passing through a given volume of the test liquid at the specified pressure. 7.4.2 Test pressure The test pressure, p t , shall be chosen as follows, according to the maximum pressure, p s , recommended by the supplier: a) 0,05 MPa p s u 0,3 MPa: p t= 0,1 MPa b) 0,3 MPa p s u 0,5 MPa: p t= 0,3 MPa c) 0,5 MPa p s u 1 MPa: p t= 0,5 MPa For nozzle
