Unwired cavities shall be fitted with filler plugs. 3.2 Unless specified in the technical specification,
23、the following details shall be stated: specimens mated or unmated and fitted with protective covers; mounting method, type of cable (non propagating flames) and definition of specimen wiring; method A or B; final measurements and requirements (ifapplicable); force to be applied according to EN2591-4
24、09; leakage rate according to EN2591-312; method according to EN2591-207 and voltage value. 4 Apparatus The dimensions of the chamber shall be approximately as follows: length 300mm, width300mm, height 600mm (seeFigure 1). It shall be open on the top and front faces. The air circulation shall be suf
25、ficient but there shall be no draught. The specimens shall be held in position with a suitable device so that the thermal inertia is negligible. The specimens shall be installed in the test chamber with their longitudinal axis positioned at an angle of(30 5) to the horizontal. For specimens with pro
26、tective covers, cables shall be directed downwards. A piece of easily flammable paper (tissue paper to ISO4046) approximately250mm 250mm shall be stretched over a frame, about300mm to350mm below the specimens. The burner with a nozzle diameter of approximately10mm shall be positioned under the speci
27、men so that its axis is at an angle of30 to the vertical. The flame shall be50mm to70mm high and its hottest point on the edge of the specimens shall have a temperature of (955 30) C. 1) Published as AECMA Prestandard at the date of publication of this standardEN2591-317:1998 4 BSI 05-1999 5 Method
28、5.1 Test procedure The flame shall be applied for (30 1) s to the lower edge of the specimens. It shall also cover any possible non-metallic materials of accessories. Method A safety:5.2.1 applies Method B safety and functioning:5.2.1 and5.2.2 apply. 5.2 Requirements 5.2.1 Throughout the test there
29、shall be no dripping which shall cause paper to ignite. Burning and afterglow shall extinguish within 30 s from removal of the flame. 5.2.2 Final measurements and requirements (if applicable) The specimens shall be subjected to the following test sequence: EN 2591-207: at ambient temperature with250
30、 V r.m.s., 40 Hz to60 Hz; EN 2591-101: damage to the insert exposing the contact by3mm or more is not acceptable; EN 2591-409: with50% of the nominal load applied for5 s; EN 2591-312: only for hermetic elements of connection.
