21、dForeword ISO (the International Organization for 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
22、technical committee has been established has the 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 matter
23、s of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulat
24、ed to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible
25、 for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 4180 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 122, Packaging, Subcommittee SC 3, Performance requirements and tests for means of packaging, packages and unit loads (as required by ISO/TC 122). This first edition of ISO 4180 cancels and replaces I
26、SO 4180-1:1980 and ISO 4180-2:1980.

27、be used for the compilation of performance test schedules for complete, filled transport packages intended for use within any distribution system except for the packages used for dangerous goods. For a known distribution environment with experimental data available (case 1), this International Stand
28、ard provides guide lines for the compilation of appropriate test schedules. For an unknown distribution environment (case 2), this International Standard provides test schedules in dependence of the test specimen mass and forecast destination. This International Standard also gives the factors to be
29、 considered in assessing the criteria of acceptance of such packages after they have been subjected to a package performance test schedule. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

35、ance, under working conditions, of the subject under test 3.2 complete, filled transport package packaging, including contents, prepared for distribution NOTE ISO 21067 6 provides terminology relating to packaging. 3.3 distribution system operations which take place after a package has been filled a
36、nd closed, including all handling, transport and storage operations up to and including delivery to the user 4 Distribution systems Distribution systems exist in great variety and complexity, but however great the complexity, they may be considered to be combinations of a number of simple elements.
37、These simple elements are: a) transport of packages from one point to another, with or without change of mode of transport (where transport shall be considered to include the loading and unloading operations); b) storage. 5 Hazards During distribution, a transport package is subjected to a number of
38、 hazards which might cause damage. These hazards are the result of a number of factors, the most important of which are: a) the characteristics of the distribution system, i. e. the carrier, the mode of transport, the geographic area; b) the design of the package, i.e. its dimensions, mass and shape
39、 and the mechanical characteristic of the materials of which it is composed. 6 Tests 6.1 General Laboratory tests on transport packages aim to simulate or represent the distribution hazards. 6.2 Appropriate application of tests The appropriate application of tests requires a) a knowledge of the stre
40、ss arising from these hazards, and b) the capability of reproducing these stresses by a particular test or, alternatively, of producing damage identical to that observed in practice. BS EN ISO 4180:2010ISO 4180:2009(E) ISO 2009 All rights reserved 36.3 Levels of intensity The levels of intensity sel
41、ected for the tests could depend on the factors in 6.2 and: a) the mass of the package; b) the distance and the geographic location of the destination; c) the degree of assurance that the package should give; d) the nature of the contents and the frequency and value of the consignment. 7 Determinati
42、on of criteria for acceptance The criteria for acceptance of a complete filled transport package might be determined by the reduction of quality of the package and/or its contents, the extent of loss of package contents, the extent of deterioration of the package and/or its contents, or whether the
43、damaged package represents a hazard or potential hazard in subsequent distribution, including storage. In determining the extent of damage that is acceptable the following factors should be considered: a) the unit value of the contents; b) the number of units in the complete, filled transport packag
44、e; c) the number of complete, filled transport packages in the consignment; d) the cost of distribution. In addition it should be considered whether the contents are non-dangerous, or dangerous. Methods of quantifying damage to a package are given in Annex A. 8 Selection of package attitude The pack
45、age attitude selected for use in the test should be the attitude of the package presented by the hazard being simulated by the test. BS EN ISO 4180:2010ISO 4180:2009(E) 4 ISO 2009 All rights reserved9 Compilation of test schedules 9.1 Case 1: distribution system well defined and intensity of hazards
46、 determined In this case, the performance test schedule shall be written using the experimental test data acquired in accordance with ISO 4178. Applicable tests shall be chosen depending on the distribution system. Appropriate test sequence and test intensity shall be chosen. The steps of the proced
47、ure are as follows: a) identify the simple elements in the distribution system; b) decide what hazards these elements involve; c) decide which tests are necessary to represent or simulate these hazards (including, for example, decisions concerning appropriate conditioning, package attitude, interpos
48、ed hazards, duration of vibration and number of impacts); d) decide the test sequence; e) decide what are the test intensities associated with the particular package and distribution system combination concerned. 9.2 Case 2: distribution system undefined and intensity of hazards unknown Very often,
49、the package manufacturer does not have a clear knowledge of the distribution system, and the intensities of the hazards are unknown. In this case, this International Standard provides recommended performance test schedules. Choice criteria are the mass and the destination of the package. 10 Case 1 10.1 Preferred test sequence A typical test sequence is: a) conditioning for testing; b) climatic treatment; c) vibration; d) stacking; e) impacts. Other tests may be interposed in the te
