34、perature of the surface of thecold plate portion of this device.8.2.8 The specimens shall be exposed to these conditionsfor a period of seven days or as determined by the specifier.8.2.9 For triple pane units, both cavities shall be tested. Twounits shall be tested with the exterior lite (as identif

35、ied by themanufacturer) towards the cooling plate and two units shall betested with the interior lite (as identified by the manufacturer)towards the cooling plate.8.3 After exposure, remove the test specimens from the testapparatus. Examine them carefully for fog by holding at armslength (approximat

36、ely 500 to 750 mm) from the eyes. Movethe specimen to any angle necessary using both reflected andtransmitted light to thoroughly check the surface of the glassfor fogging.FIG. 2 Volatile Fogging Exposure BoxE2189 1038.3.1 The examination for the presence of fog shall be donein a dark room or darken

Precision and Bias10.1 Precision and BiasNo informat

46、ion is presentedabout either the precision or bias of Test Method E2189 formeasuring fog since the test result is nonquantitative. Initialinterlaboratory test results show that specimens randomlychosen from the same group of test specimens produce thesame test results within each test facility. When

47、 test specimensof identical construction were tested at five different laborato-ries, four of the five laboratories were able to correctly identifyall test specimens as either passing or failing the test. One testlaboratory incorrectly reported one set of test specimen results.In total, of the 40 sp

48、ecimens tested, 38 test specimens werecorrectly identified as either passing or failing the test. Addi-tional interlaboratory studies are being planned.11.
