12、 temperature for 1 year. Thesamples are to be charged as they would be in production.7 Rough Usage Test7.1 A charged sample is to be tested. The sample is to be dropped three times from a height of 3 feet.Each drop is to strike the concrete at a different edge, if possible. The distance is to be mea

13、sured fromthe concrete surface to the handle. In addition, plastic tanks are to be conditioned at the minimum storagetemperature for 24 hours prior to testing. Samples shall show no signs of cracking.8 Exposure to Extinguishing Agent Test8.1 Samples are to be charged with distilled water and conditi

15、 and a crosshead speed of 0.2 inch per minute, andTensile Impact Energy (ANSI/ASTM Method D1822) Tests. The results are to be compared to the resultsobtained from as-received samples. Exposed samples are to have a value not less than 85 percent ofas-received values.8.2 Samples are to be charged with

16、 antifreeze solution and conditioned as in 8.1. After this exposure, theplastic samples are to be subjected to the Rough Usage Test as described in this outline. Specimens cutfrom plastic conditioned samples are to be subjected to Tensile Strength (ASTM Method D638) usingType I specimens and a cross

17、head speed of 0.2 inch per minute and Tensile Impact Energy (ASTMMethod D1822 ) Tests. The results are to be compared to the results obtained from as-received samples.Exposed samples are to have a value not less than 85 percent of as-received values.9 Salt Spray Corrosion Test9.1 An extinguisher and

18、 its bracket or mounting hook, if any, shall be subjected to a 500 hour salt-sprayexposure as described below. Examination after exposure shall show compliance with the following:a) The extinguisher shall be capable of being operated and recharged in a normal manner,b) Any corrosion-resistant coatin

19、g (such as paint) shall remain intact and shall adhere to thesurface so as not to be removable (when removal exposes a material subject to corrosion) bysuch action as washing or rubbing with a thumb or fingernail,c) Dissimilar metals in contact or close proximity with one another shall be provided w

20、ith acorrosion protection system, so that there is no evidence of galvanic corrosion,4. The extinguisher shall not show any incipient corrosion on metal surfaces having noprotective coating or paint.NOVEMBER 17, 2006 SUBJECT 7 5UL COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL NOT AUTHORIZED FOR FURTHER REPRODUCTION ORDISTRI

21、BUTION WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM UL9.2 For the purposes of this requirement, the term incipient corrosion is defined as the first evidence ofthe destruction of the integrity of the surface of the material.9.3 The test specimens are to be supported vertically and exposed to salt spray (fog) as specifie

22、d byANSI/ASTM B117. The apparatus used for salt-spray exposure is to consist of a fog chamber, 48 by 30by 36 inch inside dimensions, having a salt solution reservoir, a supply of suitably conditioned compressedair, a dispersing tower for producing a salt fog, specimen supports, provision for heating

23、 the chamber, andnecessary means of control. The dispersion tower is to be located in the center of the chamber and is tobe supplied with salt solution and with warmed, humidified air at a pressure of 17 to 19 psig, so as todisperse the salt solution in the form of a fine mist or fog throughout the

24、interior of the chamber. Thetemperature within the chamber is to be maintained between 92 and 97F (33.3 and 36.1C). Condensateaccumulation on the cover of the chamber is not to be permitted to drop on the test specimens, and dropsof the solution which fall from the specimens are not to be recirculat

25、ed but are to be removed through adrain located in the floor of the chamber.9.4 The salt solution is to consist of 5 percent by weight of common salt (sodium chloride) and distilledwater.10 Handle Strength Test10.1 A sample is filled to its nominal capacity with water. A rope is attached to the bala

26、nce point of thehandle leaving 12 inches of slack rope. Three drops are made on the sample during which it was allowedto fall freely through the 12 inches permitted by the rope. There is to be no sign of the handle cracking orloosening.11 Accelerated Air Oven Aging Test (Plastic Only)11.1 Whole tank

27、s (if possible) and specimens cut from samples are to be subjected to 30, 90, and 180day aging at 87C. The specimens to be aged are to be supported in a full-draft, circulating-air oven thathas been preheated at full draft. Samples are to be supported so as not to touch one another or the sidesof th

28、e oven. The samples are to be aged at full draft and then allowed to cool in air at 73.4 3.6F (23.02.0C) for at least 24 hours before any test or dimensional check is conducted. As used in this test, theterm full draft refers to the oven being used with inlet and outlet vents open and the air-vent d

29、ampercontrol being adjusted to the maximum setting so as to provide 250 to 350 air changes per hour.11.2 There is to be no cracking after the exposure. Following air-oven aging, samples are to be subjectedto both Rough Usage and Hydrostatic Pressure Tests as described in this outline. Specimens cut

30、fromaged samples are to be subjected to Tensile Strength (ANSI/ASTM Method D638), using Type Ispecimens and a crosshead speed of 0.2 inch per minute, and Tensile Impact Energy (ANSI/ASTMMethod D1822) Tests. The results are to be compared to the results obtained from as-received samples.Exposed sampl

32、to ultraviolet light from two single enclosedcarbon arc lamps, using the apparatus described below. Water is automatically sprayed onto thespecimen at predetermined intervals.12.2 The ultraviolet light is to be obtained from two stationary enclosed carbon-arc lamps. The arc of eachlamp is to be form

33、ed between two vertical carbon electrodes, 1/2 inch (12.7 mm) in diameter, located atthe center of a revolvable vertical metal cylinder, 31 inches (787 mm) in diameter and 17-3/4 inches (450.9mm) in height. Each arc is to be enclosed with a No. 9200-PX clear Pyrex glass globe. The samples areto be m

34、ounted vertically on the inside of the revolvable cylinder, facing the lamps, and the cylindercontinuously revolved around the stationary lamps at one revolution per minute. A system of nozzles is tobe provided so that each sample, in turn, is sprayed with water as the cylinder revolves. During each

35、operating cycle (total of 20 minutes) each sample is to be exposed to the light and water spray for 3minutes and to the light only for 17 minutes. The air temperature within the revolving cylinder of theapparatus during operation is to be 1459F (63 5C).12.3 After the exposures, the specimens are all

36、owed to condition at 23C (73F) and 50 percent relativehumidity for at least 24 hours before testing. The exposed specimens shall show no cracking, crazing, orother visible signs of degradation.
