Optical fibre cables - Part 1-213: Generic specification - Basic optical cable test procedures - Environmental test methods - Microduct pressure withstand, method F13

IEC 60794-1-213:2024 defines test procedures to be used in establishing uniform requirements for the environmental performance of microduct. The test determines the capability of the microduct to withstand internal pressure without leakage and visible damage. This document applies to microduct used for installation of microduct cable or fibre unit by blowing. Throughout this document, the wording "microduct" can also include protected microduct(s). See IEC 60794-1-2 for a reference guide to test methods of all types and for general requirements and definitions.This document partially cancels and replaces IEC 60794-1-22:2017. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to IEC 60794-1-22:2017: a) pressure gauge used to monitor internal pressure of microduct added as part of the test apparatus; b) "test temperature" added to the details to be specified; c) added a new subclause “4.7 Details to be reported”.

IEC 60794-1-213:2024 définit les procédures d’essai à utiliser afin d'établir des exigences uniformes applicables aux performances environnementales des microconduits. Cet essai détermine la capacité des microconduits à résister à la pression interne sans fuite ni dommages visibles. Le présent document s'applique aux microconduits utilisés pour l'installation par soufflage des câbles en microconduits ou des unités de fibres. Dans l'ensemble du document, le terme "microconduit" peut aussi englober les microconduits protégés. Voir l’IEC 60794-1-2 à titre de guide de référence pour les méthodes d'essai de tous les types et concernant les exigences générales et les définitions. Le présent document annule et remplace l'IEC 60794-1-22:2017. Cette édition constitue une révision technique. Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'IEC 60794-1-22:2017: a) manomètre utilisé pour surveiller la pression interne des microconduits, ajouté en tant qu'élément de l'appareillage d'essai; b) "température d'essai" ajoutée dans les informations détaillées à spécifier; c) ajout d’un nouveau paragraphe 4.7 "Informations détaillées à consigner".

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international
co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and
in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,
Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as "IEC Publication(s)"). Their
preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with
may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for
Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters expres
