22、mated or unmated and fitted with protective cover (if applicable); mounting method and definition of specimen wiring; type of cable (if applicable); positions and orientation of specimens in the test chamber; initial measurements and requirements (ifapplicable); speed of airflow in jet; number of cy
23、cles; final measurements and requirements (ifapplicable). 4 Apparatus The test chamber shall be designed to: avoid turbulent flows ahead of the specimens and limit them as much as possible behind the specimens; favour uniform distribution of solid particles within the airflow. The climatic test cham
24、ber shall be provided with measurement and control devices for maintaining the following parameters within specified limits throughout the test: concentration of sand and dust mixture (opacity-measuring photoelectrical cell systems are recommended); speed of airflow in jet; relative humidity and tem
25、perature around the specimens. The sand and dust shall be abrasives with the following characteristics: 100% shall pass through a1504m mesh sieve; 98% shall pass through a1004m mesh sieve; 90% shall pass through a754m mesh sieve; 75% shall pass through a454m mesh sieve; The mixture shall contain bet
26、ween97% and99% in mass of SiO 2 . 5 Method 5.1 Initial measurements and requirements (ifapplicable) They shall be carried out as specified. The specimens shall be tested to EN2591-408. 5.2 Positions and orientation of the specimens in the test chamber They shall be placed in the specified positions
27、and orientation with respect to the airflow. 5.3 Procedure Each cycle shall last3h and consist of four phases, unless otherwise specified: Phase 1: within30min, the test chamber shall be stabilized within the following limits: temperature: (30 3)C; relative humidity: lower than30%; speed of airflow:
28、 between3m/s and10m/s. The recommended speed is (3,5 0,5)m/s; concentration of mixture: (6 3)g/m 3of air; Phase 2: the above conditions shall be maintained for1h. Phase 3: within30min, the temperature shall be brought to (65 5)C, the other parameters remaining unchanged. Phase 4: these conditions sh
29、all be maintained for1h. 1) Published as AECMA Prestandard at the date of publication of this standardEN2591-308:1998 4 BSI 05-1999 Unless otherwise specified, one cycle shall be carried out for each position. Between two successive cycles, the temperature shall be reduced to (30 3)C within2h maximu
30、m. 5.4 Recovery After the test and prior to any operation to prevent the effects of moisture, dust shall be removed from the specimens by shaking, wiping or brushing but no blower or suction devices shall be used to avoid dust ingress in the specimens. The specimens shall be allowed to recover as lo
31、ng as required for it to reach ambient temperature. 5.5 Final measurements and requirements (if applicable) Final measurements shall be made as specified. The specimens shall be tested to EN2591-408, recording the value of the first unmating.blankBS EN 2591-308:1998 BSI 389 Chiswick High Road London
