7、 ii BSI 06-1999 National foreword This revision of this Part of BS4826 has been prepared under the direction of the Packaging and Freight Container Standards Committee and is identical with ISO2874-1985 “Packaging Complete, filled transport packages Stacking test using compression tester” published
8、by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). It supersedes BS4826-9:1975 which is withdrawn. In1992 the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) accepted ISO2874:1985 as European Standard EN22874:1992. As a consequence of implementing the European Standard this British Standard i
9、s renumbered as BSEN22874 and any reference to BS4826-9 should be read as a reference to BSEN22874. Terminology and conventions. The text of the international standard has been approved as suitable for publication as a British Standard without deviation. Some terminology and certain conventions are
10、not identical with those used in British Standards; attention is drawn especially to the following. Wherever the words “International Standard” appear, referring to this standard, they should be read as “British Standard”. Cross references The Technical Committee has reviewed the provisions of ISO22
11、33, a new edition of which is currently in preparation and to which reference is made in the text, and has decided that they are acceptable for use in conjunction with this standard. A related British Standard is BS4826 “Complete, filled transport packages” Part2:1986 “Method of conditioning for tes
12、ting”. A revision of BS4826-7 is in preparation and will be identical with ISO2872-1985. The current(1975) edition is identical to the previous edition(1973) of ISO2872. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsi
13、ble for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations.

25、s International Standard specifies a method for carrying out a stacking test on complete, filled transport packages, using a compression tester. This test may be used to assess the performance of a package in terms of its strength or the protection that it offers to its contents when it is subjected
26、 to stacking. It may be performed either as a single test to investigate the effects (deformation, creep, collapse or failure) of stacking or as part of a sequence of tests designed to measure the ability of a package to withstand a distribution system that includes a stacking hazard. The test may a
27、lso be used to investigate performance under particular conditions of loading, as, for example, when the bottom package in a stack rests on an open-decked pallet. When the compression load is not to be applied over the whole surface of the package which is being tested, appropriate devices should be
28、 suitably interposed between the package and platen of the press in order to simulate the conditions met in practice when applying these compression loads. NOTEA method for carrying out a stacking test on a complete, filled transport package, using one of three methods of applying a static load, is
29、given in ISO2234. A method for testing the compression resistance of a complete, filled transport package, using a compression tester, is given in ISO2872. 2 References ISO2206, Packaging Complete, filled transport packages Identification of parts when testing.

ISO2872, Packaging Complete, filled transport packages Compression test. 3 Principle Placing of the test package on the lower platen of a compression tester and lowerin
31、g of the upper platen to impose a load upon it. This load, the atmospheric conditions, duration of time under load and attitude of the packages are predetermined. 4 Apparatus 4.1 Compression tester, motor-driven, mechanical or hydraulic, platen-type, capable of applying load through uniform movement
32、 of one or both platens. The platens shall be flat, so that when placed horizontally the difference in height between the lowest and highest points does not exceed1mm; dimensioned so as to extend over the whole area of the panels or interposed devices with which they are in contact; rigid, so as not
33、 to deform by more than1mm at any point when the tester applies a load of75% of its maximum rating, either to a centrally placed100mm 100mm 100mm block having sufficient strength to accept this load without failure, or to four similar blocks placed at the four corners, in the case of swivelmounted p
34、latens. One platen shall remain horizontal, within two parts per1000 at all times during the test. The other platen shall be either rigidly mounted so as to remain horizontal within two parts per1000 at all times during the test, or be held by a universal joint at its centre and so be free to tilt i
35、n any direction. The working surfaces of platens suitable for testing packages with a length or width or diameter greater than1000mm may be locally recessed for fixing bolts, etc. 4.2 Recording device for loads, with a percentage of error not exceeding 2% of the load. 4.3 Means of imposing a predete
36、rmined load, for a predetermined time, without fluctuation exceeding4% and with no more relative movement of the platens than is necessary to maintain this load during any vertical displacement of the upper platen. 4.4 Means of measuring deflection (if necessary), accurate to 1mm and capable of indi
37、cating either an increase or a decrease in dimensions. 5 Package preparation The test package shall normally be filled with its intended contents. However, simulated or dummy contents may be used, on condition that the dimensions and physical properties of such contents shall be as close as possible
38、 to those of the intended contents. Ensure that the test package is closed normally, as if ready for distribution. If simulated or dummy contents are used, ensure that the normal method of closure is still employed. 6 Conditioning The package shall be conditioned in accordance with one of the condit
39、ions described in ISO2233.EN22874:1992 4 BSI 06-1999 7 Procedure Whenever possible the test shall be carried out in the same atmospheric conditions as used for conditioning where this is critical to the materials or application of the package. In other circumstances, the test shall be carried out in
40、 atmospheric conditions which are as near as practicable to those used for conditioning. 7.1 Place the test package centrally on the lower platen of the test machine(4.1), in the predetermined attitude. 7.2 Apply the load by relative movement of the platens until the predetermined load is reached. T
41、he load shall be applied in such a way that peaks in excess of the predetermined load do not occur. 7.3 Maintain the predetermined load for the predetermined time or until premature collapse. 7.4 Remove the load by movement of the platens, examine the package and, if necessary, measure its dimension
42、s. NOTE 1At any time during the test it may be necessary to measure dimensions. NOTE 2Appropriate profiles representative of particular loading conditions may be inserted as required. 8 Test report The test report shall include the following particulars: a) reference to this International Standard;
43、b) number of replicate packages tested; c) full description of the package, including dimensions, structural and material specifications of the package and its fittings, cushioning, blocking, closure or reinforcing arrangements; d) description of contents if simulated or dummy contents were used, fu
44、ll details shall be given; e) gross mass of package and mass of contents, in kilograms; f) relative humidity, temperature and time of conditioning; temperature and relative humidity of test area at time of test; whether these values comply with the requirements of ISO2233; g) the attitude in which t
45、he package was tested, using the method of identification given in ISO2206; h) type of apparatus used, including whether the tester was mechanically or hydraulically operated and whether both platens were rigidly mounted or not; j) load imposed, in newtons, and the duration of time of the package un
46、der load; k) design and dimensions of any profiles used; m) location of deflection measurement points on packages and stage of test at which deflection measurements were made; n) any deviations from the test method described in this International Standard; p) a record of the result, with any observa
47、tions which may assist in correct interpretation; q) date of the test; r) signature of tester.BSEN22874:1993 BSI 06-1999 Publications referred to See national foreword.BSEN 22874:1993 ISO2874:1985 BSI 389 Chiswick High Road London W4 4AL BSIBritishStandardsInstitution BSI is the independent national
