17、al 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 right to be represented on that committee. Internatio
18、nal 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. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rule
19、s 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 circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at l
20、east 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.

23、hing nets, using an objective mesh gauge. It is applicable to active and passive fishing gear. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest ed
24、ition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. ISO 139, Textiles Standard atmospheres for conditioning and testing ISO 1107, Fishing nets Netting Basic terms and definitions IEC 60529, Degrees of protection provided by enclosures (IP Code) 3 Terms and definitions For the purpos
25、es of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 3.1 active fishing gear fishing gear requiring movement to catch the fish NOTE In general, mobile fishing equipment (i.e. equipment which is mobile relative to the sea bed or to the water) is led into the path of the fish to pursue and
26、catch them. All trawls, dredges, seine nets, purse seines and other surrounding nets are examples of active gear. 3.2 trawl towed net consisting of a cone-shaped body closed at the rear by a bag or cod end and widened at the opening by wings NOTE A trawl may be towed by one or two boats and, dependi
27、ng on the type, is used on the bottom or as a midwater (pelagic) trawl. 3.3 Danish seine funnel-shaped net (with wings and cod end) with very long ropes laid out on the sea bed and hauled in to a vessel in the open sea BS EN ISO 16663-1:2009ISO 16663-1:2009(E) 2 ISO 2009 All rights reserved3.4 purse
28、 seine large single-panel multisection net used to encircle pelagic fish, the bottom of the net being drawn together to enclose the encircled fish 3.5 passive fishing gear fishing gear requiring movement of the fish in order for the fish to be caught NOTE This gear is usually stationary equipment, o
29、ften, but not always, anchored on the sea bed. Gill nets and entangling nets are examples of passive gear. 3.6 gill net panel of netting, usually of rectangular shape, made of thin twine or monofilament yarn, in the meshes of which the fish are caught NOTE The net is suspended vertically in the wate
30、r by floats and sinkers. 3.7 entangling net loosely hung vertical net that catches fish by entangling rather than enmeshing them 3.8 trammel net bottom-set net which is made up of of three walls of netting, the two tightly hung outer walls having a larger mesh size than the inner wall which is loose
31、ly hung between them NOTE The fish pass through one of the outer walls and become entangled in the small meshes of the inner wall, after which they push themselves into the second outer wall, thus forming a bag. 4 Principle An objective mesh gauge is inserted into the mesh opening. The mesh is stret
32、ched by a movable jaw until a pre-set measurement force is reached. The size of the mesh opening is then measured automatically. 5 Apparatus 5.1 Objective mesh gauge, complying with the requirements of 5.1.1 to 5.1.6. 5.1.1 The objective mesh gauge used for determining mesh openings shall be automat
33、ic and electrically driven (see Figure 1). The gauge shall be able to apply selected longitudinal measuring forces, in the range 5 N to 180 N, to the meshes with a precision of 1 N. Fixed measuring forces of 10 N, 20 N, 50 N and 125 N shall be provided. A built-in system for measuring the applied fo
34、rce is needed. The gauge shall have two jaws, one fixed and one movable, each 2 mm thick with rounded edges with a radius of 1 mm, to ensure that the jaws slip easily over the twine or yarn. A mesh shall be stretched at a constant speed of (300 30) mm/min by the movable jaw. The gauge shall be able
35、to measure meshes from 10 mm to 300 mm and may have different, detachable, jaws for use on small and large meshes. The measurement precision shall be 1 mm. 5.1.2 The structure of the gauge shall be rigid and shall not distort under load. The body shall be light yet robust and shall weigh no more tha
36、n 2,5 kg. The gauge shall be made of materials resistant to corrosion under marine conditions. It shall be water-resistant, be unaffected by dust to rating IP 56 as specified in IEC 60529, and be stable in operation over the temperature range 10 C to + 40 C. The gauge shall be able to withstand temp
37、eratures between 25 C and + 65 C during storage and transportation. BS EN ISO 16663-1:2009ISO 16663-1:2009(E) ISO 2009 All rights reserved 35.1.3 Gauge operation shall be controlled by software that provides a menu of functions. It shall be possible to operate the gauge with one hand and the functio
38、ns shall be accessible via external buttons. Data shall be shown on an integral display able to present each measurement, the number of measurements made in a series and the mean value. A store shall be provided capable of holding at least 1 000 measurements and it shall be possible to transmit data
39、 to a computer. 5.1.4 The software menu shall contain a suitable function to calculate the mean mesh opening, rounded to the nearest 0,1 mm. For so-called “square” meshes, the software shall contain a suitable function to select automatically the longer diagonal of each mesh to calculate the mean me
40、sh opening of the square mesh netting. To allow verification of the selection procedure, the data saved shall include all the measurements made. 5.1.5 The software shall permit automatic self-testing of the electronic and mechanical parts when the gauge is started. If the gauge is ready for use, thi
41、s shall be shown on the display. If this is not the case, the display shall show an error message and the gauge shall close down and not be usable. 5.1.6 Some netting will creep under load. The gauge shall respond to this condition by re-applying the pre-set measurement force in accordance with an a
42、lgorithm in the controlling software which causes the gauge to a) extend the movable jaw into the mesh at a constant speed of (300 30) mm/min until the pre-set measurement force is reached; b) stop the motor and wait 1 s; c) if the force drops below 80 % of the measurement force, extend the jaw into
43、 the mesh until the measurement force is reached once more.

For the netting of passive fishing gear, use 10 N for all mesh sizes. 7 Calibration The objective mesh gauge s
45、hall be calibrated once a year by an authorized calibration institute. 8 Verification of length and force measurement 8.1 Verification of length measurement Verification of the length measurement shall be performed at intervals by inserting the jaws of the gauge into slots of different lengths in a
46、calibrated rigid test plate. An example of such a test plate is shown in Figure 2.

47、ated weights on the fixed jaw, with the gauge securely held vertically, as shown in Figure 3. The weights shall have the following values: 10 N, 20 N, 50 N and 125 N. Calibration shall only be carried out under stable conditions. Key 1 test weight Figure 3 Force measurement verification 9 Requiremen
48、ts for testing 9.1 General Tests may be carried out in both the dry and wet states, but tests in the wet state are considered to be particularly appropriate in indicating the behaviour of the netting in use. 9.2 Atmosphere for testing All specimens to be tested in the dry state shall be conditioned
49、in the standard atmosphere specified in ISO 139 until they have reached equilibrium. Where it is not possible to carry out the test in the standard atmosphere, the test shall be carried out immediately after removal of the specimen from the standard atmosphere.
