Explosives for civil uses - Detonators and detonating cord relays - Part 8: Determination of the resistance to vibration

This document specifies a method for determination the ability of the explosive content of plain detonators and semi-finished detonators to withstand vibration it could be exposed to during use, handling and transport. Plain detonators are instantaneous detonators supplied without means of activation. Semi-finished detonators are detonator supplied without means of activation
This document applies to explosives for civil uses.
NOTE Plain detonators and semi-finished detonators are normally activated by means of detonating cord, safety fuse, pyrotechnic igniter or shock tube.

Explosivstoffe für zivile Zwecke - Zünder und Sprengschnurverbinder - Teil 8: Bestimmung des Widerstandes gegen Erschütterung

Dieses Dokument legt ein Verfahren für die Bestimmung der Fähigkeit des explosiven Füllmaterials von Sprengkapseln und halbfertigen Zündern fest, den Erschütterungen standzuhalten, denen sie während der Verwendung, der Handhabung und des Transports ausgesetzt sein könnten. Sprengkapseln sind Momentzünder ohne Einrichtung zur Zündung. Halbfertige Zünder sind Zünder ohne Einrichtung zur Zündung.
Dieses Dokument gilt für Explosivstoffe für zivile Zwecke.
ANMERKUNG   Sprengkapseln und halbfertige Zünder werden üblicherweise mittels Sprengschnur, Sicherheitsanzündschnur, pyrotechnischen Anzündern oder Zündschlauch aktiviert.

Explosifs à usage civil - Détonateurs et relais pour cordeau détonant - Partie 8 : Détermination de la résistance à la vibration

Le présent document spécifie une méthode de détermination de la capacité des explosifs contenus dans les détonateurs pyrotechniques et semi finis à résister aux vibrations auxquelles ils pourraient être exposés pendant l’utilisation, la manutention et le transport. Les détonateurs pyrotechniques sont des détonateurs instantanés fournis sans moyen d’activation. Les détonateurs semi finis sont des détonateurs fournis sans moyen d’activation.
Le présent document s’applique aux explosifs à usage civil.
NOTE Les détonateurs pyrotechniques et semi finis sont normalement activés au moyen d’un cordeau détonant, d’une amorce de sécurité, d’un allumeur pyrotechnique ou d’un tube à transmission d’onde de choc.
