NOTE Permanent deformation of the hardware is acceptable. 6 Test apparatus 6.1 General The variable geometry stay hinge (with or without a friction system) shall be installed in the test specimen for testing as in EN 13126
40、-1:2006, Clause 6 and in accordance with the manufacturers fixing instructions. The hardware manufacturer shall provide test specimens for the testing institute. A drawing of the profile cross-section with relevant information shall be enclosed in the test application, which also contains the necess
41、ary hardware installation information for the windows. NOTE Purpose-built test steel test apparatus may also be used. Mounting blocks should be used to ensure the fixing gap on the test apparatus is equal to the working stack height of the variable geometry stay hinge (with or without a friction sys
42、tem). 6.2 Assembly 6.2.1 General The test shall be conducted on a test rig which corresponds in function and shape to the window for which the hardware was intended. The hardware tested shall be in accordance with the manufacturers recommendation for size and mass of the test specimen. The test rig
43、shall be provided with adjustable datum surfaces near the free corners of the edge of the casements, opposite to its detected locking rail, so that wear and loss of pull-in can be detected. 6.2.2 Fixing Any gap between sash and outer frame shall be equal to the working stack height of the variable g

46、 (see Figure B.3). 6.3.2 Steel cross for simulated negative pressure test The simulated negative pressure test requires a welded steel cross to be used to distribute the applied force to the mid-points of the panel rails and stiles. 7 Test methods 7.1 Samples Four samples shall be used for testing i
47、n accordance with this European Standard: sample A pull-in, friction and pull-in abuse tests; sample B pull-in, durability and simulated negative pressure tests; sample C corrosion tests; sample D retained for reference control. NOTE 1 Sample C should only be necessary if no test report can be suppl
48、ied from the manufacturer regarding the testing of the hardware component or set in accordance with EN 1670. NOTE 2 Sample D should be retained by the test institute for the duration of the validity of the test report. 7.2 Pull-in test 7.2.1 General Position the datum surfaces into the corners where
49、 the variable geometry stay hinges (with or without a friction system) are fitted, opposite the locking rail (see Figure B.5). Adjust the datum surfaces so that a measurable gap of between 2 mm to 3 mm is achieved when a force of 10 N 1 N is applied horizontally in the opening direction to each corner in turn. Measure and record each of the gaps to establish the initial datum position for the test. The datum surfaces shall not be readjusted until all tests on t
