J.1 GeneralThis test consists of measuring the reduction of the specific electrical coating resistance after the coating has been conditioned in an electrolyte.J.2 ApparatusThe test is carried out either by bonding and sealing a plastic pipe segment to the surface of the sample or by placing a pipe section horizontally in a plastic container with…
6 Method E2: Abrasion6.1 Method E2A: Abrasion resistance of optical fibre cable sheaths6.1.1 ObjectThe abrasion resistance of optical fibre cables has two aspects:a) the ability of the sheath to resist abrasion;b) the ability of cable markings to resist abrasion.The purpose of this test is to determine the ability of an optical fibre cable sheath to…
A.1 GeneralThis Annex specifies the test method to verify the leaktightness of the seats and packing of a valve/valve bodies made from PE.A.2 Test pieceThe test piece shall be a complete valve with the open ends closed off by, for example, covers, plugs,flexible seals or end connectors.The setting time of moulded or fusion-jointed components, as…
6 Apparatus 6.1 Thickness Testing Instrument —The thickness gauge shall have a base (or anvil) and a free moving presser foot plate whose planar faces are parallel to each other to <0.01 mm. A gauge with a 56.4 mm (2.22 in.) diameter presser foot, the base shall extend at least 10 mm in all directions…
Test Methods and Specimens8.1 Introduction:8.1.1 Three basic vibratory methods exist:8.1.1.1 Forced vibration of a nonresonant system involving only the specimen,8.1.1.2 Free vibration of a resonant system involving the specimen and a mass, and8.1.1.3 Forced vibration of the above resonant system.8.1.2 The first and third can be broken down further into two kinds of apparatus, those…
1 Scope This part of ISO 4589 specifies methods for determining the minimum concentration of oxygen, in admixture with nitrogen, that will support combustion of small vertical test specimens under specified test conditions. The results are defined as oxygen index values. Methods are provided for testing materials that are self-supporting in the form of vertical…
15.1 ObjectThe purpose of this test is to verify that microduct is capable of withstanding the maximum internal pressure used for blowing of microduct cable or fibre unit.15.2 GeneralThis test ensures safe operation over a range of temperatures. The test pressure is chosen to be either the maximum working pressure of the microduct or a…
4 Test method4.1 GeneralThis part of IEC 60811 shall be used in conjunction with IEC 60811-100.Unless otherwise specified, tests shall be carried out at room temperature.Two test procedures can be applied to materials, depending on cable system conditions andenvironments; a summary of test conditions is given in Table 1:– for less severe conditions: Method A;–…
4 PrincipleA test specimen is clamped over an expansive diaphragm by means of a circular clamping ring. Increasing fluid pressure is applied to the underside of the diaphragm, causing distension of the diaphragm and the fabric. The volume of fluid is increased at a constant rate per unit time until the test specimen bursts. The…
6.4 Vertical flame 6.4.1 General 6.4.1.1 This test establishes the method for determining the resistance of MPT, fitting, or clamp to the vertical propagation of flame and dropping of flaming particles Specimens shall be separately subjected to two 15-second applications of flame, with 15 seconds between each Raine application 6.4.1.2 Specimens shall be tested in…
