APPARATUS 5.1 The testing apparatus shall be a fresnel-reflecting device possessing 10 flat mirrors which focus direct sunlight onto an a

18、ir-cooled sample area. A more complete description of the apparatus may be found in ASTM G 90. See Figure 1. NOTE: The apparatus shall be operated in dry, sunny climates receiving approximately 3500 to 4000 h of sunshine per year and an average annual relative humidity of approximately 25 to 35%. FI

20、e. This sample shall possess a minimum area of 2580 mm2(4 in2). The essential requirement is that the optical-mirror specimen be manufactured from the same batch and lot as the mirror stock-material used to irradiate the target sample area. This sample shall be labelled with a number which identifie

21、s which mirrors the sample applies to. The optical mirror sample is mounted at the same time as are the mirrors used to irradiate the sample area, and its specular, spectral reflectance is periodically measured.

22、TED EXPOSURE OF AUTOMOTIVE EXTERIOR MATERIALS USING A SOLAR FRESNEL REFLECTOR APPARATUS EXPOSURE REPORT FORM 5.3 A black panel thermometer may optionally be mounted onto the sample exposure area to assist in monitoring expected maximum sample temperatures. The device shall be constructed by affixing

23、 the sensing element to the front surface of a metal panel measuring 5 x 13 x 0.16 cm (2 x 5 x 0.06 in) or any other convenient size. The sensor can be attached using a thermally conductive epoxy such as Part Number EC-286 from Therm-X of California or equivalent. The front surface of the panel shal

24、l be then coated with DuPont 93 005 Delux Super Black Enamel, or other gloss black automotive coating. NOTE: ASTM Committee G03 on Durability is currently addressing the issue of Black Panel thermometers as a result of widely different temperature data reported by commercial testing agencies. 5.4 Wa

25、ter Quality 5.4.1 The purity of water used for specimen spray is very important. Without proper treatment to remove cations, anions, organics, and particularly silica, exposed panels will develop spots or stains that do not occur in exterior exposures.5.4.2 Water used for specimen spray shall leave

26、no objectionable deposits or stains on the exposed specimens. It is strongly recommended that the water contain a maximum of 1 ppm solids and a maximum of 0.2 ppm silica. Silica levels should be determined using the procedures defined in ASTM D 859 or ASTM D 4517. Prepackaged analysis kits are comme

27、rcially available that are capable of detecting silica levels of less than 200 parts per billion (ppb). A combination of deionization and reverse osmosis treatment can effectively produce water with the desired purity. If the spray water used is above 1 ppm solids, the solids and silica levels must

28、be reported. SAE J1961 Revised MAY2011 Page 6 of 12 6. CALIBRATION AND MAINTENANCE 6.1 At least every six months, measure the specular reflectance of each mirror in two places along the mirrors centerline using a portable specular reflectometer with narrow-band-pass filters centered at 310 nm wavele

29、ngth: (1) 15 cm (6 in) from the north edge, and (2) 15 cm (6 in) from the south edge. Visibly inspect each mirror and measure any additional areas which appear non-uniform. Update the value of Psemploying actual average values of specular reflectance. Replace individual mirrors if the average 310 nm

30、 specular reflectance is less than 0.65 (65%). 6.2 If measurement of specular reflectance of the mirrors used in exposure devices is not practical, mount small, representative specimens of the mirror material. Place the representative specimens next to the mirror locations described in 5.1. These re

31、presentative specimens must be of the same material and lot number as the mirrors used in the instrument. The representative specimens must also be installed at the same time as the mirrors. At least every six months, measure the specular reflectance of the representative specimens at 310 nm. Replac

32、e individual mirrors if the average 310 nm specular reflectance of the representative specimens is less than 0.65 (65%). 6.3 Mirrors shall be checked for mirror focus monthly in accordance with the procedure specified in ASTM G 90 and refocused if required at that time. 6.4 The safety mechanism used

33、 to protect samples in the event of a power outage shall be checked monthly to make sure it operates properly in all positions. 6.5 Clean mirrors (and removable mirror samples) at intervals necessary to maintain the reflectance specified in 6.1. To maintain optimum specular reflectance, it is recomm

34、ended that mirrors be cleaned on an established frequency to minimize the effects of surface deposits that may alter spectral irradiance at the target area. 6.6 Clean black panel thermometers at an interval necessary to maintain optical performance. 7. TEST PROCEDURES 7.1 To insure repeatability of

35、test, maintain the apparatus in accordance with Section 6 and the manufacturers specifications.7.1.1 Conditioning and handling of test, control, reference, and file specimens shall be according to ASTM G 147. 7.2 Mount samples in the exposure area using one of two methods: 7.2.1 Noninsulated Exposur

36、e Mount samples into sample holders constructed of a corrosion-resistant metal such as stainless steel or aluminum in an unbacked configuration such that panels can lose heat from back-side cooling. 7.2.2 Insulated Exposure Mount samples into sample holders such that samples are backed with an insul

37、ating water-resistant material such as 13 mm (1/2-in) thick exterior plywood. 7.3 Coated metal specimens shall be mounted using either of the two mounting methods in accordance with the schedule in Table 1: TABLE 1 - MOUNTING CONDITIONS Time Period Mounting Condition November 1 March 31 Insulated Ap

38、ril 1 October 31 Noninsulated SAE J1961 Revised MAY2011 Page 7 of 12 7.4 Specimens which are not coated metal shall be mounted for a noninsulated exposure. 7.5 If a black panel thermometer is mounted onto the sample area with the test samples to be exposed, it shall be mounted using the same mountin

39、g condition as the test samples. 7.6 Apparatus shall be set up to provide conditions in accordance with one of the cycles in Table 2: TABLE 2 - SPRAY CYCLES Cycle Daytime Nighttime Spray Duration Dry-Time Duration Cycles, h Spray DurationDry-Time Duration Cycles, h water is sprayed on the test speci

41、Cycle 2 above). These spray cycles were changed to be in conformance to ASTM and ISO standards. 7.7 Spray Orientation The apparatus shall be positioned so that specimens are sprayed at night either with specimens facing up or down. 7.7.1 Specimens Face Down The apparatus is oriented with the mirrors

42、 below the target specimen area such that nozzles spray high purity water in an upward direction onto the specimens. 7.7.2 Specimens Face Up The apparatus is oriented with the mirrors above the target specimen area such that nozzles spray high purity water in a downward direction onto the specimens.

43、 NOTE: No data has been presented indicating that exposures performed using different spray orientations provide equivalent results, and as such, may provide different test results. 7.8 Expose samples for a predetermined amount of ultraviolet radiant exposure measured in J/m2. Determine the solar ra

46、osure, Hdin Equation 1 shall be determined as the integration of irradiance with respect to time. Irradiance shall be measured using two ultraviolet radiometers.1A black-painted permanent shading disk (see Figure 4) is positioned over one radiometer in order to provide a diffuse-only measurement (ex

Instrument calibration constants shall be checked by mounting both instruments at the same orientation for at least 1 h under clear sky conditions. If a difference of more than 2% exists between instruments,

49、they shall be recalibrated.At least monthly, for 1 h under clear sky conditions, both instruments shall be tracked off-altitude approximately 15 degrees with no shading on the normally shaded instruments diffuser. If the radiant exposure readings from the two instruments differ by more than 2%, the radiometers shall be recalibrated. Historical radiation data shall be checked on an annual basis to compare results
