22、h in service are subjected to rubbing forces caused by the fingers or other parts of the hand. This standard may be applied to other industrial products. This test should be required by the relevant specification when the stress during normal use is very high or in such cases where the legibility is

23、 important because of safety aspects or other reasons. 1 Scope This International standard provides a standard method to determine the resistance of markings and letterings on flat or curved surfaces against abrasion as may occur for example by manually operating actuators and keyboards. The method

24、is also suitable to test the resistance against fluid contamination as may occur under normal use. 2 Normative reference The following normative document contains provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this part of IEC 68. At the time of publication, the edition i

25、ndicated was valid. All normative documents are subject to revision, and parties to agreements based on this part of IEC68 are encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the most recent editions of the normative document indicated below. Members of IEC and ISO maintain registers of curren

26、tly valid International Standards. IEC 68-1:1988, Environmental testing Part1:General and guidance. Amendment 1 (1992) 3 General description The surface under test shall be repeatedly stressed by the rubbing movement of a test piston. The tip of the test piston due to its elasticity is deformed in s

27、uch a way as to fit the surface under test. The material, hardness and shape of the piston, the movement and the angle of action are chosen in such a way that the pressure and friction executed by a human finger or by the ball of a thumb are simulated. To obtain reproducible conditions of friction a

28、 piece of fabric is placed between the piston and the surface under test (either as a cover of the piston or as a curtain, hanging between piston and surface). Depending on the relevant specification this fabric may either be dry (dry test) or soaked with a specified test liquid if the test is inten

29、ded to cover the influence of fluid contamination as may occur in normal use (wet test). 4 Description of the test apparatus 4.1 Test apparatus An example of a suitable test apparatus is shown in the schematic drawing in annex A. The apparatus moves the rubbing-piston under an angle of 45 5 via a co

30、nnecting rod against the surface under test. The force F (given in the relevant specification) results in an elastic deformation of the test piston combined with a rubbing movement s across the surface under test. The rubbing movement shall be from 1mm to 4mm. The pressing cycle shall be repeated as

31、 many times as prescribed by the relevant specification. For non-rigid test specimens (for example keyboards) the specification shall specify additional requirements (for example fixing). Table 1 Dimensions mm Size A B C 1 20 20 2 2 10 20 1EN60068-2-70:1996 4 BSI 11-1998 The test piston consists of

32、elastic material which shall be inert against the test liquids and shall have a Shore-A-hardness of 47 5 (for example synthetic rubber). The size of the test piston shall be selected fromTable 1 according to the shape and dimension of the test specimen and the kind of lettering. The relevant specifi

33、cation shall prescribe the size of the test piston. If necessary other dimensions for the test piston more suited to the test specimen may be chosen. They shall then be prescribed by the relevant specification. The abrasive dust produced during the test shall not influence the result of the test. Th

34、erefore it shall be removed continuously from the area between the test piston and the test specimen. NOTEThe accumulation of abrasive dust can be avoided by mounting the test surface vertically (the dust will fall down) or by blowing it off by means of compressed air free of oil and any pollution a

35、t room temperature. 4.2 Test fabric Between the test specimen and the test piston there shall be an easily replaceable piece of fabric which also can be a cover for the test piston. The specifications 3)of the test fabric shall be: For the “dry test” the fabric shall be changed or moved such as to b

36、ring an unused part of it into contact with the test specimen after a maximum of10000 cycles in order to avoid wear. For the “wet test” (see4.3) the soaking of the fabric shall be repeated after every 10cycles. Alternatively it may be moved so that a fresh piece of fabric is brought in between the t

37、est piston and the test specimen after every 10cycles. The soaking may be achieved by dipping the fabric into the test liquid or by periodic dripping of the test liquid on to the fabric. At the start of a new test and after a maximum of 10000 cycles the fabric shall be renewed to avoid stray results

38、 due to encrustation and wear. 4.3 Test liquids When a “wet test” is specified in the relevant specification the test liquid(s) shall be specified. Such liquids may be: artificial sweat; lubricating oil; hydraulic oil; other relevant liquid. If more than one test liquid is specified different specim

39、ens shall be used for each liquid unless otherwise specified by the relevant specification. 5 Severity The severity is given by the force with which the test piston acts on the specimen and by the number of cycles. It shall be chosen from the following values. The chosen values shall be prescribed i

40、n the relevant specification. 6 Preconditioning The surface under test shall be in the condition of delivery after normal production. The relevant specification may prescribe preconditioning (for example ageing, dusting, cleaning). 7 Initial measurements The specimen shall be submitted to a visual c

41、heck and if prescribed by the relevant specification to dimensional and functional checks. 8 Testing Unless otherwise specified in the relevant specification the test shall be a “dry test” carried out at standard atmospheric conditions according to IEC68-1. The test specimens are stressed in the tes

42、t apparatus (see clause4.1) with the prescribed severity. The test piston shall be moved with a speed of60mm/s towards the test surface. It is pressed against the surface with the force given for the chosen severity. The test conditions shall be chosen so that the “piston pressing on the surface” an

43、d “piston lifted” times are approximately equal. The time during which the force is applied shall be not less than 0,2s. The cycle frequency shall be (2 0,5) strokes per second. The relevant specification may prescribe other frequencies. NOTEWith higher frequencies it is possible that the temperatur

44、e of the test specimen is unacceptably increased. 3) According to ISO/CD 12947-1, Textiles Determination of abrasion resistance of fabrics Martindale method Part1:Martindale abrasion testing machine. material: wool warp: 175 threads/dm10 threads/dm weft: 135 threads/dm 8 threads/dm weight per area:
