22、 or 10 mV and sufficient sensitivity andscale divisions to read sensor response to 1C (2 F) or +/- 0.05mv.

23、hold specimen holder assembly and position the burner.7. Hazards7.1 Perform the test in a hood or ventilated area to carrycombustion products away. If air currents disturb the flame,shield the apparatus or turn off the hood while running the test,then turn the hood on after the test to clear fumes.

24、Exercise carein handling the burner with the open flame. Maintain adequateseparation between flame and combustible materials.7.2 The specimen holder and calorimeter assembly canbecome heated during prolonged testing. Use protective gloveswhen handling these hot objects.NOTE 2Some test specimens are

25、hazardous when exposed to directflames. Use care when the ignited specimen releases combustible gases.Remove the burner using gloves and allow the sample to burn out, orsmother it with a plate.7.3 Shut off the gas supply at the cylinder and allow flameto burn the gas from the lines when testing is c

Sampling and Test Specimen Preparation8.1 Lot SampleRandomly select the number of rolls orpieces of fabric directed in an applicable material specificationor other agreement between the purchaser and the supplier.Consider the rolls or pieces of fabric to be the primarysampling units. In

27、the absence of such an agreement, take thenumber of fabric rolls specified in Table 1. Consider a singleshipment of one style of fabric as the lot. A lot may constitutepart of a single customer order.NOTE 3An adequate specification or other agreement between thepurchaser and supplier requires taking

28、 into account the variability betweenFIG. 1 Test ApparatusD7140072rolls or pieces of fabric and between specimens from a swatch from a rollor piece of fabric to provide a sampling plan with a meaningful producersrisk, consumers risk, acceptable quality level, and limiting quality level.8.2 Laborator

29、y SampleTake a swatch extending the widthof the fabric and approximately1m(1yd)along the machinedirection from each roll or piece in the lot sample. For rolls offabric, take a sample that will exclude fabric from the outerwrap of the roll or the inner wrap around the core of the roll offabric.8.3 Te

30、st SpecimensCut and identify five test specimensfrom each swatch in the laboratory sample. Make each testspecimen 133 3 133 +/- 2 mm (5.259 3 5.259 +/-116 in.) withtwo sides of the specimen parallel with either the machinedirection or cross machine direction. Do not cut samples closerthan 10 % of th

31、e material width from the edge. Take specimensrepresenting a broad distribution across the width. Ensurespecimens are free of folds, creases, or wrinkles. Avoid gettingoil, water, grease, etc., on the specimens when handling.9. Calibration9.1 Position the ring support on the vertical bar of the ring

32、stand with a right angle clamp. Center the ring support over thecenter of the burner. The distance between the bottom of thespecimen holder and the top of the burner must be 50 6 1.6mm (2 6116 in.).9.1.1 Reduce the pressure on the gas supply to 55 kPa(8psig) for proper flame adjustment.9.1.2 Place t

33、he calorimeter facing down so that it is exposeddirectly to the flame.9.1.3 Record the response of the calorimeter for at least 30seconds.9.1.3.1 Select the lowest temperature on the curve where theresponse is linear and determine the increase in temperaturerise for 20 seconds.FIG. 2 Calorimeter Pla

35、ame exposure to 1.1calories/cm2/sec. by setting the gas flow through the rotometerand adjusting the flame with the needle valve in the base of theburner. Approach the settings from a low gas flow to preventplacing the hottest portion of the flame below the sensor. Thecorrect exposure results from a

36、flame with the air baffles at thebottom of the burner closed completely. This may requiretaping to seal the air inlets of the burner.9.2 Cool the sensor to room temperature after each exposureusing a jet of air or by contact with a cold surface.9.2.1 Reheat the sensor to approximate body temperature

37、 bycontact with the palm of the hand just prior to positioning overthe test specimen.9.2.2 Do not adjust the zero setting of the recorder.9.2.3 Sample holder careUse dry sample holders at roomtemperature for test runs. Alternate with several sets of holdersto permit cooling between runs, or force co

When required, clean condensed tars and soot fromholders with a non aqueous solvent.9.3 Wipe the sensor face immediately after each run, whilehot, to remove any decomposition products which condenseand could be a source of error.9.4 If a deposit collects and appears to be thi
