16、9). The test criteria for all mechanical and environmental tests cover visual appearance, and protected microduct retention of the closure. It is generally accepted practice that liquids will enter the closure through its body or connected ducts. 1.4 Reliability Whilst the anticipated service life e

17、xpectancy of the product in this environment is a minimum of 20 years, compliance with this specification does not guarantee the reliability of the product. This should be predicted using a recognised reliability assessment programme. 1.5 Quality assurance Compliance with this specification does not

18、 guarantee the manufacturing consistency of the product. This should be maintained using a recognised quality assurance programme. 1.6 Allowed fibre and cable types This closure standard covers all IEC/EN standard optical fibre microducts, and protected microducts with their various fibre capacities

19、, types and designs. This includes optical fibre cable standard EN 60794-5. This product specification has only considered protected microduct cables containing microducts of same outside diameters. There are other hybrid protected microduct cables with microducts of differing ODs; it may be possibl

20、e to use these hybrids, however the user must verify suitability in each case. 1.7 Allowed microduct connector types This closure standard covers all EN standard microduct connectors, including: straight, reducer/enlarger stem, reducer/enlarger, close down, liquid block, liquid block with barb end,

21、and end stop connectors. This includes EN 50411-2-8. BS EN 50411-2-9:2010EN 50411-2-9:2010 8 1.8 Microduct storage constraints Microduct excess storage is not required in all air blown fibre closures. Some closure types do not have sufficient internal space to provide storage. The need for microduct

22、 storage is provided inside the closure when opened, typically to ensure that there is enough microduct to fulfil the following functions: remove the coiled microduct attached to the closedown connectors, to a remote location, close to blowing equipment, in the process uncoiling the microducts to ai

23、d blowing; provide additional microduct if repeated cut backs for connectors are planned or likely to be fitted throughout the closure life. The minimum microduct storage bend radius is based on the outside diameter and material selection, typically based on 12 times the outside diameter (below 8 mm

24、) and 20 times above. During fibre blowing the bend radius is typically 20 times the microduct diameter. 1.9 Essential differences between sealed and non-sealed ABF closures The non-sealed ABF closures covered in this product specification typically differ from sealed ABF closures in EN 50411-2-5, i

25、n the following ways: mandatory to use ABF connectors in non-sealed closures meeting EN 50411-2-8 in order to protect the fibre within the microducts; typically rotational, compression, thermoformed or injection moulded; generally accepted that liquids will enter the closure through its body or conn
