Explosives for civil uses - Detonators and detonating cord relays - Part 2: Verification of thermal stability of detonators, surface connectors, detonating cord relays and shock tubes

This document specifies a method for verification of the thermal stability of electric detonators, non-electric detonators, plain detonators, electronic detonators, surface connectors, detonating cord relays and shock tubes for use with electronic and non-electric detonators.
This document applies to explosives for civil uses.
Explosives become more stable in low temperatures and therefore this method does not include temperatures lower than (75 ± 2) °C.

Explosivstoffe für zivile Zwecke - Zünder und Sprengschnurverbinder - Teil 2: Überprüfung der thermischen Stabilität bei hohen Temperaturen

Dieses Dokument legt ein Verfahren für die Überprüfung der thermischen Stabilität von elektrischen Zündern, nichtelektrischen Zündern, Sprengkapseln, elektronischen Zündern, Oberflächenverbindern, Sprengschnurverzögerern und Zündschläuchen zur Verwendung mit elektronischen und nichtelektronischen Zündern fest.
Dieses Dokument ist anzuwenden für Explosivstoffe für zivile Zwecke.
Explosivstoffe werden bei niedrigen Temperaturen stabiler und daher berücksichtigt dieses Verfahren keine Temperaturen unter (75 ± 2) °C.

Explosifs à usage civil - Détonateurs et relais pour cordeau détonant - Partie 2 : Vérification de la stabilité thermique à haute température

Le présent document spécifie une méthode de vérification de la stabilité thermique des détonateurs électriques, des détonateurs non électriques, des détonateurs pyrotechniques, des détonateurs électroniques, des connecteurs de surface, des relais pour cordeau détonant ainsi que des tubes à transmission d’onde de choc utilisés avec des détonateurs non électriques et électroniques.
Le présent document s’applique aux explosifs à usage civil.
Les explosifs sont plus stables à basse température, c’est pourquoi cette méthode n’inclut pas les températures inférieures à (75 ± 2) °C.
