The test method is not suitable for use with recognized explosives, gunpowder, dynamite,

25、or substances or mixtures of substances which may, under some circumstances, behave in a similar manner. Where any doubt exists about the existence of a hazard due to explosive properties, an indication may be obtained by placing a very small quantity of the dust in question on the heated surface of

26、 the apparatus prescribed in IEC1241-2-1 1) , heated to400 C. The test for explosivity will not always reveal the explosive nature of a dust so that a “fail to danger” situation could arise. NOTEPrecautions should be taken to safeguard the health of personnel conducting the tests against the risk of

27、 fire, explosion and/or the effects, including toxic effects, of combustion. This test method is applicable to the construction and application of electrical apparatus for use in the presence of combustible dust. 1 Scope This standard specifies a method of test to determine, by application of a d.c.

28、 voltage, the electrical resistivity of a layer of dust. It is intended to be used in the design, construction, testing, and application of electrical apparatus for use in the presence of combustible dust. The test method is not suitable for use with recognized explosives or substances having explos

29、ive properties. 2 Normative references The following normative documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this standard.

32、y remain suspended in air for some time NOTEThis definition includes what are defined in ISO4225 as “dust” and “grit”. 3.2 conductive dust dust with electrical resistivity equal to or less than10 37.m 3.3 non-conductive dust dust with electrical resistivity greater than10 37.m 3.4 electrical resisti

33、vity minimum value of the electrical resistance of a dust layer measured between electrodes spaced at unit distance apart, and each having unit area in contact with the dust NOTEFor the purpose of this standard, electrical resistivity is measured in ohm metre. 4 Test apparatus Figure 1 andFigure 2 g

34、ive details for the construction of the test apparatus. The test cell (seeFigure 1) is of open construction, and consists of two stainless steel bars with nominal dimensions: length (W) 100mm, height (H) 10mm, breadth(B) 20mm to40mm. These bars are placed at a nominal distance apart of (L) 10mm on a

35、 base with a thickness between5mm and10mm. NOTEGlass or polytetrafluorethylene (PTFE) have been found to be suitable materials for the base. Two glass bars, also with a nominal height of10mm, are placed across the ends of the electrodes to keep the dust layer in place. Figure 2 illustrates an exampl

36、e of a suitable electrical circuit for making the resistivity measurement. It contains a10k7 resistor to restrict the breakdown current to a maximum value of0,2A at a maximum supply voltage of2000Vd.c. Other circuits with comparable characteristics and accuracy may be used. 1) IEC1241-2-1:1993, Elec

37、trical apparatus for use in the presence of combustible dust Part2: Test methods Section 1 (underconsideration).EN61241-2-2:1995 4 BSI 10-1999 The current-to-voltage converter has six ranges to deal with the various values of supply voltage and dust resistivity. A voltage inverter is present to prov

38、ide a positive output. All resistors are5%,0,5W high-stability carbon-film type. 5 Test sample The test sample shall be homogeneous and representative of the dust received for testing. When dust is received, it should be put in a closed vessel until tested, or it should be conditioned, or it should

39、be tested directly, and the moisture content measured at the same time and reported. The sample of dust to be tested shall, in general, be able to pass through a woven metal wire cloth, or a square hole perforated plate test sieve with a nominal size aperture of71 4m (supplementary size, see ISO565)

40、. If it is required to test coarser dust, a test sieve with a nominal size of aperture up to5004m may be used. State the nominal size of aperture of the sieve used in the report of the test. State the moisture content of the dust sample as tested in the report of the test, and describe the method of

41、 measurement. State in the test report any apparent changes in the properties of the dust, for example moisture content or particle shape, resulting from the preparation of the test sample, for example in sieving. 6 Procedure 6.1 Preliminary measurement Measure the resistance R oof the empty test ce

The same sample of dust in the test cell may be used for all the tests at

44、any one of the values of voltage. 6.3 Calculation of resistivity Generally, R ois greater than10 R s , and the resistivity of the dust is calculated from the equation = 0,001 R sH W/L If R ois less than10 R s , the resistivity is calculated from the equation = 0,001 R s R o /R o R s H W/L Calculate

45、the resistivity for each value of the applied voltage. 7 Test report The test report shall include the results of the measurements, the name, source and chemical description (if not implicit in the name) of the dust tested, the particle size and moisture content of the test sample, and the date and

46、identification number of the test. Report the mass of the dust in the test cell, and the ambient temperature at the time of the test. The report shall state that the determination of electrical resistivity of the dust has been carried out in accordance with this standard. where is the resistivity in
