EN 1507:2006 (E) 6 Introduction This European Standard specifies requirements and test methods for strength and air leakage of rectangular ductwork. The objective is to establish the mechanical strength
24、 and leakage necessary to verify the fitness for the intended service as installed ductwork. Testing of leakage can be done on site, but testing of strength (deflection, bulging and caving) is confined to laboratories and manufacturers premises.

39、 to standardized quality insurance systems is required. In any case the test rig shall comprise a pressure gauge and variable air flow supply. When strength is tested the rig shall also comprise two supports which are at the same height as the reference level. Figure 5, gives an illustration of the
40、test rig used for strength. 5.2 Leakage testing 5.2.1 Test object Before commencing the test, the section to be tested shall be sealed off from the rest of the system. In either case the area to be tested shall normally be at least 10 m2. NOTE A normal ratio between the total joint length (L) and ar

EN 1507:2006 (E) 10 5.2.2 Test procedure The section to be tested shall be subjected to test pressures, positive and negative, not lower than its design operating pre
42、ssure pdesign. The test pressure shall be maintained within 5 % of the specified value for 5 min. For laboratory testing, or when more information on ductwork performance is needed, the testing shall be extended to several test pressures, at least 5 positive and 5 negative within a range of test pre

45、e joint halfway between the supports. 5.3.2 Test procedure The section to be tested shall be subjected to a negative pressure not lower than its static pressure limit (negative) according to Table 1. The test pressure shall be maintained within 5 % of the specified value for 5 min. Measure the lengt
46、h of the duct to be tested and place the supports at the distances specified in 5.1 and Figure 5. Tighten the ends of the duct and connect the test fan and the pressure gauge. 5.3.3 Determination of deflection of a duct Connect the duct to a test rig in accordance with 5.1 Figure 5. Start the air su
47、pply and regulate the pressure to the test pressure appropriate to the tightness class (see Table 1). When steady state is reached, measure the deflection (cd) (see 3.11). 5.3.4 Determination of deflection of a joint Connect the duct to a test rig in accordance with 5.1 and Figure 5. Start the air s
48、upply and regulate the pressure to the test pressure appropriate to the tightness class (see Table 1). When steady state is reached, measure the deflection cj (see 3.12) by measuring the distance from the joint to the corresponding reference plane, with and without pressure. Record the highest value
49、 of deflection. 5.3.5 Determination of bulging and/or caving Connect the duct to a test rig in accordance with 5.1 and Figure 5. Apply the stated test pressure and determine the bulging and caving (see 3.13) from evenness of each side of the duct by measuring the distance from the external duct surface to the corresponding parallel reference plane based on the position of the duct corner. The difference between the distances, with and without pressure, is the bulging/caving of the side. Record the highest value o
