This edition is a revision of EN 572-2:2004. The main changes in this edition are: a) an enlargement of the scope to oversize plate
18、s;, b) a new method of determination of squareness;, c) a new method of measurement for spot fault (including halo) and an adaptation of the related requirements. This European Standard “Glass in building Basic soda lime silicate glass products” consists of the following parts: Part 1: Definitions a
19、nd general physical and mechanical properties; Part 2: Float glass; Part 3: Polished wired glass; Part 4: Drawn sheet glass; Part 5: Patterned glass; Part 6: Wired patterned glass; Part 7: Wired or unwired channel shaped glass; Part 8: Supplied and final cut sizes; Part 9: Evaluation of conformity/P
20、roduct standard. According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organisations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Maced
21、onia, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey and the United Kingdom. DIN EN 572-2:2012-11EN 572-2:2012 (E) 4 1 Scope This European Standard
22、 specifies dimensional and minimum quality requirements (in respect of optical and visual faults) for float glass, as defined in EN 572-1:2012, for use in building. This European Standard applies only to float glass supplied in jumbo sizes (see Note 1), split sizes (see Note 2) and oversize plates (
23、see Note 3). NOTE 1 Jumbo sizes PLF (plateau largeur de fabrication) Bandmasse. NOTE 2 Split sizes DLF (dimension largeur de fabrication) Geteilte Bandmasse. NOTE 3 Oversize plates these are plates where the nominal length, H, is greater than 6 000 mm. These plates are produced to special order. EN
24、572-8 gives information on float glass in sizes (i.e. supplied and final cut sizes) other than those covered by this European Standard. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.

DIN EN 572-2:2012-11EN 572-2:2012 (E) 7 5 Quality requirements 5.1 General One quality level is considered in this European Standard. This is determined by the evaluation of optical and visual faults. The
36、manufacturer(s) shall be consulted if higher levels of quality are required. 5.2 Methods of observation and measurement 5.2.1 Optical faults A screen bearing an assembly of black and white stripes (zebra) is observed through the glass to be examined. The usual size of screen is between 1 500 mm 1 15
37、0 mm and 2 500 mm 2 000 mm. It consists of a translucent white background with parallel black stripes, 25 mm wide and 25 mm apart, inclined at 45. The screen is uniformly lit from behind with white daylight fluorescent tubes. The illuminance of the screen measured 1 m from it shall be between 400 lx
38、 and 1 200 lx. The measurement shall be taken at a point on a line normal to the centre of the screen. The walls of the test room should be painted with a dark non-reflective paint having a diffuse reflection 0,10. The glass to be examined shall be held vertically in a support frame. The centre of t
39、he glass shall be at a distance of 4,5 m from the screen and on a line normal to the centre of the screen. The glass shall be capable of being rotated around a vertical axis. The glass shall be held with the direction of draw of the glass vertical. Appropriate critical viewing angles, , formed by th
40、e glass and the screen should be indicated (see Figure 2). The observer stands still at a distance of 9 m from the centre of the screen on a line passing through the axis of rotation. The glass being examined is rotated from an angle = 90 until there is no longer any distortions of the lines on the
41、screen. The angle, (see Figure 2), at which this occurred is noted. The glass sample taken, with a length, H, between 300 mm and 500 mm and a width, B, of 3 210 mm, is split into four. This gives samples of a width of approximately 800 mm. The distortion is measured in zone D and zone d as shown in
42、Figure 3. DIN EN 572-2:2012-11EN 572-2:2012 (E) 8 Key A screen B glass sample C observer Figure 2 Plan view showing set up of zebra test Figure 3 Zones for the measurement of optical distortion 5.2.2 Visual faults 5.2.2.1 Spot faults A spot fault consists of a nucleus generally accompanied by a halo
43、. The categories of spot faults are defined by the maximum dimension of the spot fault, measured according to the method defined in Annex A. The DIN EN 572-2:2012-11EN 572-2:2012 (E) 9 dimension of the spot fault is the dimension of the halo or, in case of absence of halo, the dimension of the nucle
44、us. Note the number of spot faults and the biggest dimension of the halo generated by the nucleus and relate to the four categories of spot faults as shown in Table 3. Table 3 Categories of spot faults Dimensions in millimetres Category Dimension of spot fault A 0,6 and 1,5 B 1,5 and 3,0 C 3,0 and 9
45、,0 D 9,05.2.2.2 Linear/extended faults The glass pane to be examined is illuminated in conditions approximating to diffuse daylight and is observed in front of a matt black screen (reflection coefficient between 0,2 and 0,4). Place the pane of glass to be examined vertically in front of the screen a
46、nd parallel to it. Arrange the point of observation 2 m from the glass, keeping the direction of observation normal to the glass surface. View the pane of glass, and note the presence of visually disturbing faults. 5.3 Acceptance levels 5.3.1 Optical faults When viewed under the conditions of observ
47、ation as described in 5.2.1, the angle, , at which there is no disturbing distortion shall be not less than the appropriate critical viewing angle given in Table 4.
