Space product assurance - Thermal vacuum outgassing test for the screening of space materials

This Standard describes a thermal vacuum test to determine the outgassing screening properties of materials proposed for use in the fabrication of spacecraft and associated equipment, for vacuum facilities used for flight hardware tests and for certain launcher hardware.
This Standard covers the following:
• critical design parameters of the test system;
• critical test parameters such as temperature, time, pressure;
• material sample preparation;
• conditioning parameters for samples and collector plates;
• presentation of the test data;
• acceptance criteria;
• certification of test systems and their operators by audits and round robin tests.
The test described in this Standard is applicable for all unmanned spacecraft, launchers, payloads, experiments. The test is also valid for external hardware of inhabited space systems and for hardware to be used in terrestrial vacuum test facilities.
The outgassing and condensation acceptance criteria for a material depend upon the application and location of the material and can be more severe than the standard requirements as given in clause 5.5.3.1.
This standard may be tailored for the specific characteristics and constrains of a space project in conformance with ECSS‐S‐ST‐00. 7

Zagotavljanje varnih proizvodov v vesoljski tehniki - Preskus s toplotnim vakuumskim odplinjanjem za presejanje vesoljskih materialov

Ta standard opisuje preskus s toplotnim vakuumskim odplinjanjem za ugotavljanje lastnosti s presejanjem z odplinjanjem za materiale, predlagane za uporabo pri izdelovanju vesoljskih plovil in povezane opreme, za vakuumske obrate, ki se uporabljajo za preskuse letalske strojne opreme ter za določeno strojno opremo lansirnikov. Ta standard obravnava naslednje elemente: • kritične parametre zasnove preskusnega sistema; • kritične preskusne parametre, kot so temperatura, čas, tlak; • pripravo vzorca materiala; • parametre staranja za vzorce in kolektorske plošče; • predstavitev preskusnih podatkov; • merila sprejemljivosti; • potrjevanje preskusnih sistemov in njihovih upravljavcev z revizijami in medlaboratorijskimi preskusi. Preskus, opisan v tem standardu, se uporablja za vsa plovila brez posadke, lansirnike, tovore, poskuse. Preskus velja tudi za zunanjo strojno opremo poseljenih vesoljskih sistemov ter za strojno opremo, ki se uporablja v zemeljskih vakuumskih preskusnih obratih. Merila sprejemljivosti za odplinjanje in kondenzacijo za material so odvisna od uporabe in lokacije materiala ter so lahko strožja od standardnih zahtev, kot je podano v točki 5.5.3.1. Ta standard se lahko prilagodi posameznim lastnostim in omejitvam vesoljskega projekta v skladu s standardom ECSS‐S‐ST‐00. 7

Foreword
This document (EN 16602-70-02:2014) has been prepared by Technical Committee
CEN/CLC/TC 5 “Space”, the secretariat of which is held by DIN.
This standard (EN 16602-70-02:2014) originates from ECSS-Q-ST-70-02C.
This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by
publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by April 2015, and
conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by April 2015.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document
may be the subject of patent rights. CEN [and/or CENELEC] shall not be held
responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
This document supersedes EN 14091:2002.
This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the
European Commission and the European Free Trade Association.
This document has been developed to cover specifically space systems and has
therefore precedence over any EN covering the same scope but with a wider
domain of applicability (e.g. : aerospace).
According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards
organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European
Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic,
Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, France,
Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania,
Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia,
Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey and the United Kingdom.
Introduction
The kinetics of an outgassing process is influenced by vacuum and temperature
conditions.
The method described in this Standard gives reliable data for material screening
use exclusively. The nominal temperature for the screening test, as described in
this standard is 125 °C. Results from the nominal screening test can be used for
the screening of materials that have an operational temperature below 50 °C,
especially if they are exposed for an extended period of time (in the order of
weeks and above).
Scope
This Standard describes a thermal vacuum test to determine the outgassing
screening properties of materials proposed for use in the fabrication of spacecraft
and associated equipment, for vacuum facilities used for flight hardware tests
and for certain launcher hardware.
This Standard covers the following:
• critical design parameters of the test system;
• critical test parameters such as temperature, time, pressure;
• material sample preparation;
• conditioning parameters for samples and collector plates;
• presentation of the test data;
• acceptance criteria;
• certification of test systems and their operators by audits and round robin
tests.
The test described in this Standard is applicable for all unmanned spacecraft,
launchers, payloads, experiments. The test is also valid for external hardware of
inhabited space systems and for hardware to be used in terrestrial vacuum test
facilities.
The outgassing and condensation acceptance criteria for a material depend upon
the application and location of the material and can be more severe than the
standard requirements as given in clause 5.5.3.1.
This standard may be tailored for the specific characteristics and constrains of a
space project in conformance with ECSS-S-ST-00.
