Plastics - Methods of exposure to laboratory light sources - Part 3: Fluorescent UV lamps (ISO 4892-3:2006)

ISO 4892-3:2006 specifies methods for exposing specimens to fluorescent UV radiation and water in apparatus to designed reproduce the weathering effects that occur when materials are exposed in actual end-use environments to daylight, or to daylight through window glass.
The specimens are exposed to fluorescent UV lamps under controlled environmental conditions (temperature, humidity and/or water). Different types of fluorescent UV lamp may be used to meet all the requirements for testing different materials.

Kunststoffe - Künstliches Bestrahlen oder Bewittern in Geräten - Teil 3: UV-Leuchtstofflampen (ISO 4892-3:2006)

Dieser Teil von EN ISO 4892 legt Verfahren fest, bei denen Probekörper in einem Gerät einer UV -Leuchtstofflampenstrahlung, Wärme und Wasser ausgesetzt werden, um die Bewitterungseffekte nachzubilden, die auftreten, wenn Werkstoffe in realen, beim Endgebrauch vorzufindenden Umgebungen der Globalstrahlung oder Globalstrahlung hinter Fensterglas ausgesetzt sind.
Die Probekörper werden bei geregelten Umgebungsbedingungen (Temperatur, Luftfeuchte und/oder Benässung) UV-Leuchtstofflampenstrahlung ausgesetzt. Um alle Anforderungen für das Prüfen unterschiedlicher Werkstoffe zu erfüllen, können verschiedene Typen UV-Leuchtstofflampen verwendet werden.
Die Vorbereitung der Probekörper und die Auswertung der Ergebnisse werden in anderen, für bestimmte Werkstoffe vorgesehenen ISO-Dokumenten behandelt.
Eine allgemeine Anleitung ist in ISO 4892-1 gegeben.
ANMERKUNG   Die Beanspruchung von Beschichtungsstoffen mit UV-Leuchtstofflampenstrahlung ist in EN ISO 11507 [4] beschrieben.

Plastiques - Méthodes d'exposition à des sources lumineuses de laboratoire - Partie 3: Lampes fluorescentes UV (ISO 4892-3:2006)

L'ISO 4892:2006 spécifie des méthodes pour l'exposition d'éprouvettes à des rayonnements fluorescents UV et à un appareillage à l'eau pour reproduire les effets du vieillissement qui interviennent lorsque des matériaux sont exposés à la lumière du jour dans des environnements d'utilisation finale réelle, ou à la lumière du jour à travers un vitrage de fenêtre.
Les éprouvettes sont exposées à des lampes fluorescentes UV dans des conditions environnementales maîtrisées (température, humidité et/ou teneur en eau. Différents types de lampes fluorescentes UV peuvent être utilisés pour satisfaire aux exigences relatives aux essais de différents matériaux.

ISO 4892-3:2006(E)
Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 4892-3 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 61, Plastics, Subcommittee SC 6, Ageing,
chemical and environmental resistance.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 4892-3:1994), which has been technically
revised.
ISO 4892 consists of the following parts, under the general title Plastics — Methods of exposure to laboratory
light sources:
⎯ Part 1: General guidance
⎯ Part 2: Xenon-arc lamps
⎯ Part 3: Fluorescent UV lamps
⎯ Part 4: Open-flame carbon-arc lamps

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 4892-3:2006(E)

Plastics — Methods of exposure to laboratory light sources —
Part 3:
Fluorescent UV lamps
1 Scope
This part of ISO 4892 specifies methods for exposing specimens to fluorescent UV radiation, heat and water
in apparatus designed to reproduce the weathering effects that occur when materials are exposed in actual
end-use environments to daylight, or to daylight through window glass.
The specimens are exposed to fluorescent UV lamps under controlled environmental conditions (temperature,
humidity and/or water). Different types of fluorescent UV lamp may be used to meet all the requirements for
testing different materials.
Specimen preparation and evaluation of the results are covered in other ISO documents for specific materials.
General guidance is given in ISO 4892-1.

NOTE Fluorescent UV lamp exposures for paints, varnishes and other coatings are described in ISO 11507 .
2 Normative references
The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated
references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced
document (including any amendments) applies.

daylight under glass, natural weathering or laboratory light sources
ISO 4892-1, Plastics — Methods of exposure to laboratory light sources — Part 1: General guidance
3 Principle
3.1 Fluorescent UV lamps, when properly maintained, can be used to simulate the spectral irradiance of
daylight in the ultraviolet (UV) region of the spectrum.
3.2 Specimens are exposed to various levels of UV radiation, heat and moisture (see 3.4) under controlled
environmental conditions.
3.3 The exposure conditions may be varied by selection of:
a) The type of fluorescent lamp.
b) The irradiance level.
c) The temperature during the light exposure.
ISO 4892-3:2006(E)
d) The relative humidity of the chamber air during the light and dark exposures, when test conditions
requiring control of humidity are used.
NOTE  Commercial fluorescent UV devices usually do not provide means of relative humidity control.
e) The type of wetting (see 3.4).
f) The wetting temperature and cycle.
g) The timing of the light/dark cycle.
3.4 Wetting is usually produced by condensation of water vapour onto the exposed specimen surface or by
spraying the test specimens with demineralized/deionized water.
3.5 The procedure(s) may include measurement of the irradiance and the radiant exposure in the pla
