Rubber and plastics hoses - Methods of exposure to laboratory light sources - Determination of changes in colour, appearance and other physical properties (ISO 30013:2011)

This International Standard specifies methods for the exposure of rubber and plastics hoses to three types of
laboratory light source (xenon-arc, fluorescent UV and open-flame carbon-arc lamps).
These methods are designed to simulate the exposure of hoses used in an outdoor environment (exposure to
xenon-arc lamps by method A, exposure to fluorescent UV lamps by method A and exposure to open-flame
carbon-arc lamps with type 1 filters) or in an indoor environment (exposure to xenon-arc lamps by method B,
exposure to fluorescent UV lamps by method B and exposure to open-flame carbon-arc lamps with type 2
filters).
Four types of test piece (two strained and two unstrained upon exposure) are specified. Results from the three
light sources and the different sets of exposure conditions specified are not comparable.

Gummi- und Kunststoffschläuche - Verfahren zur Bestrahlung mit Laborlichtquellen - Bestimmung der Änderungen von Farbe, Aussehen und anderen physikalischen Eigenschaften (ISO 30013:2011)

In dieser Internationalen Norm werden Verfahren festgelegt, bei denen Gummi- und Kunststoffschläuche bei Laboratoriumsprüfungen drei Arten von Lichtquellen (Xenonbogenlampen, UV-Leuchtstofflampen und Kohlenstoffbogenlampen) ausgesetzt werden. Diese Verfahren wurden entwickelt um die Exposition von Schläuchen in der äußeren Umwelt zu simulieren (Exposition gegen Xenonbogenlampe nach Verfahren A, Exposition gegen UV-Leuchtstofflampen nach Verfahren A und Exposition gegen Kohlenstoffbogenlampe mit Typ 1-Filtern) oder gegen Einwirkungen im Innenraum (Exposition gegen Xenonbogenlampe nach Verfahren B, Exposition gegen UV-Leuchtstofflampen nach Verfahren B und Exposition gegen Kohlenstoffbogenlampe mit Typ 2-Filtern). Vier Arten von Probekörpern werden festgelegt (bewittert werden zwei gespannte und zwei nicht gespannte). Die für die drei Lichtquellen ermittelten Prüfergebnisse und die verschiedenen Bewitterungsarten sind nicht vergleichbar.

Tuyaux en caoutchouc et en plastique - Méthodes d'exposition à des sources lumineuses de laboratoire - Détermination du changement de coloration, d'aspect et d'autres propriétés physiques (ISO 30013:2011)

L'ISO 30013:2011 spécifie les méthodes d'exposition des tuyaux en caoutchouc et en plastique à trois types de source lumineuse de laboratoire (lampes à arc au xénon, fluorescentes UV et à arc au carbone à flamme nue).
Ces méthodes sont destinées à simuler l'exposition de tuyaux utilisés dans un environnement extérieur ou dans un environnement intérieur.
Quatre types d'éprouvette (deux déformés et deux non déformés selon l'exposition) sont spécifiés. Les résultats obtenus avec les trois sources lumineuses et les différentes conditions d'exposition spécifiées ne sont pas comparables.

Gumene in plastomerne cevi - Metode izpostavitve laboratorijskim virom svetlobe - Ugotavljanje sprememb barve, izgleda in fizikalnih lastnosti (ISO 30013:2011)

Ta mednarodni standard določa metode za izpostavitev gumenih in plastomernih cevi trem tipom laboratorijskih virov svetlobe (ksenonska obločnica, fluorescentna ultravijolična svetilka in ogljikova obločnica z odprtim plamenom). Te metode so namenjene simulaciji izpostavitve cevi, ki se uporabljajo na prostem (izpostavitev ksenonskim obločnicam z metodo A, izpostavitev fluorescentnim ultravijoličnim svetilkam z metodo A in izpostavitev ogljikovim obločnicam z odprtim plamenom s filtri tipa 1) ali v zaprtih prostorih (izpostavitev ksenonskim obločnicam z metodo B, izpostavitev fluorescentnim ultravijoličnim svetilkam z metodo B in izpostavitev ogljikovim obločnicam z odprtim plamenom s filtri tipa 2).
Določene so štiri vrste preskušancev (dve, ki se po izpostavitvi napneta, in dve, ki se po izpostavitvi ne napneta). Rezultati teh treh virov svetlobe in različnih naborov pogojev izpostavitve, ki so opredeljeni, niso primerljivi.

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 30013 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 45, Rubber and rubber products, Subcommittee
SC 1, Hoses (rubber and plastics).
It cancels and replaces ISO 8580:1987 and ISO 11758:1995, which have been combined and technically
revised. It also cancels and replaces the Technical Corrigendum ISO 11758:1995/Cor.1:1998.

WARNING — Persons using this International Standard should be familiar with normal laboratory
practice. This standard does not purport to address all of the safety problems, if any, associated with
its use. It is the responsibility of the user to establish appropriate safety and health practices and to
ensure compliance with any national regulatory conditions.
1 Scope
This International Standard specifies methods for the exposure of rubber and plastics hoses to three types of
laboratory light source (xenon-arc, fluorescent UV and open-flame carbon-arc lamps).
These methods are designed to simulate the exposure of hoses used in an outdoor environment (exposure to
xenon-arc lamps by method A, exposure to fluorescent UV lamps by method A and exposure to open-flame
carbon-arc lamps with type 1 filters) or in an indoor environment (exposure to xenon-arc lamps by method B,
exposure to fluorescent UV lamps by method B and exposure to open-flame carbon-arc lamps with type 2
filters).
Four types of test piece (two strained and two unstrained upon exposure) are specified. Results from the three
light sources and the different sets of exposure conditions specified are not comparable.

minimum bend radius for the hose under test or, if this is not specified, six times the inside diameter.
5.1.3 Type 2
The test piece shall consist of a strip cut longitudinally from a hose. The strip shall be 150 mm in length and
25 mm in width.
Mount the test piece in a test piece holder as shown in Figure 2, in such a way that the convex side will be
exposed to the light during the exposure.
For details of the mounting of the test piece, see method 2 in ISO 7326:2006.
5.1.4 Type 3
The test piece shall normally consist of a strip of hose cover, cut longitudinally from the hose.
The strip shall be 100 mm in length and 25 mm in width.
If a hose cover test piece cannot easily be cut from the hose, the test piece shall consist of a strip cut
longitudinally from the complete hose with its cover in place. The strip shall be 100 mm in length and 25 mm in
width.
Mount the test piece in a test piece holder as shown in Figure 3, in such a way that the convex side will be
exposed to the light during the exposure.
5.1.5 Type 4
The test piece shall consist of a sample of hose approximately 150 mm in length. If possible, test pieces shall
be cut from different sections of the hose (e.g. from each end and from the middle).
Mount each test piece in a test piece holder as shown in Figure 4, ensuring that it is not subject to any stress
but curves naturally in such a way that the convex side will be exposed to the light during the exposure.
5.2 Conditioning
Prior to testing, condition the test pieces, mounted as described in 7.2, under the applicable standard
conditions as specified in ISO 23529 or ISO 291, as appropriate, in darkness or subdued light.

NOTE The plus/minus tolerances given for irradiance, black-panel temperature and relative humidity are the
allowable fluctuations of the parameter concerned about the given value under equilibrium conditions. This does not
mean that the instrument setting can vary by plus/minus the value given in this table.

The irradiance values given are those that have historically been used. In apparatus capable of producing higher irradiances, the
2
actual irradiance can be significantly higher than the stated values, e.g. up to 180 W/m (300 nm to 400 nm) for xenon-arc lamps with
2
daylight filters or 162 W/m (300 nm to 400 nm) for xenon-arc lamps with window-glass filters.

6.2.2.2 Irradiation
Unless otherwise specified, control the irradiance at the levels indicated in Table 2 or Table 3. Other
irradiance levels may be used if agreed upon by the interested parties. The irradiance, and the passband in
which it was measured, shall be included in the test report.
6.2.2.3 Temperature
6.2.2.3.1 Black-standard/black-panel temperature
The black-standard temperatures specified in Table 2 are intended for referee purposes. For normal work,
black-panel thermometers may be used in place of black-standard thermometers (see Table 3). However,
allowance will have to be made for the fact that the two types of thermometer indicate different temperatures,
due to the different design and to interchange with the surrounding atmosphere (see ISO 4892-1).
NOTE 1 If a black-panel thermometer is used, the temperature indicated will be 3 °C to 12 °C lower than that indicated
by a black-standard thermometer under typical exposure conditions.
If a black-panel thermometer is used, then the panel material, the type of temperature sensor and the way in
which the sensor is mounted on the panel shall be included in the test report.

NOTE 2 The additional measurement of a white-standard/white-panel temperature with a white-standard/white-panel
thermometer in accordance with ISO 4892-1 gives important information on the range of surface temperatures of
differently coloured test pieces.
6.2.2.3.2 Chamber air temperature
Exposures can be run either with the chamber air temperature controlled at a specified level or allowing the air
temperature to find its own level (see Table 2 and Table 3).
6.2.2.4 Relative humidity of chamber air
Exposures can be conducted either with the relative humidity controlled at a specified level or allowing the
relative humidity to find its own level (see Table 2 and Table 3).
6.2.2.5 Spray cycle
The exposure chamber shall be equipped with a means of directing water spray onto the exposed surfaces of
the test pieces under specified conditions.
The spray cycle shall be as specified for method A in Table 2 or Table 3.
6.2.2.6 Cycles with dark periods
The conditions in Table 2 and Table 3 are valid for the continuous presence of radiant energy from the source.
More complex cycles may be used if specified in the product standard. These could include dark periods
involving high humidity and/or the form
