In the centre of the flat plate there shall be a cyli
46、ndrical hole with a diameter of (106 f 2) mm. A cylindrical anvil with a diameter of (100 f 2) mm, a thickness of at least 20 mm with a flat upper surface shall be mounted on a load cell. The surface of the anvil facing the striker shall be in level with the surface of the flat plate with a toleranc
47、e of I1 mm. 10 EN 13277-512002 (E) A compression ring made of steel with a mass of (IO f 0,l) kg, (140 14) mm internal and (260 14) mm external diameter shall be used to fix the sample to the support. The striker shall be able to fall freely in the vertical axis of the anvil with a tolerance of f 2
48、mm. The striker shall be guided in such a way, that it will always reach at least 95 % of the freefall velocity. A means of measuring the velocity of the striker at the point of impact shall be provided. To measure the maximum peak force an electric measurement device with the following characterist
49、ics shall be used: - Measurement frequency: minimum 2 O00 Hz - Accuracy class of the load cell: 0,2 - Maximum load: 10 kN Dimensions in millimetres 26014 11tOIlt 10612 lOOI2 8012 4 - 4 w - F - F 4 w 1 / / , / / / 3 , / I / 1 E E .- O cI I I 30min. 30rnin. 350rnin. x 300rnin.
