EN 927-6:2018 (E)
Introduction
Coatings from paints, varnishes and similar materials are weathered in a laboratory in order to
accelerate ageing processes (caused by temperature, wetness and irradiation) which occur during
natural weathering. Generally, a simple accelerating ratio between ageing during artificial and natural
weathering cannot be expected due to the influencing factors having different effects according to the
nature of the coating and substrate. Predictable relationships can only be expected if the effect of the
important parameters (spectral distribution of the irradiance in the photochemically relevant range,
temperature of the specimen, type of wetting, wetting cycle relative humidity) on the coating is known.
Moreover acceleration of the coating chemistry can cause alternative degradation pathways to be
followed. However, unlike natural weathering, testing in the laboratory can be controlled by the
operator and therefore the results are more repeatable and reproducible. This revision of EN 927-6
incorporates the results of a precision investigation that quantifies the capability of the test in terms of
repeatability and reproducibility.

4 Principle
Artificial weathering of coatings using fluorescent UV lamps, condensation or water spray is carried out
in order to produce a certain radiant exposure or mutually agreed total number of operation hours,
based on a given degree of a change in a property or properties. The properties of the exposed coatings
are compared with those of unexposed coatings, which are prepared from the same coating materials
under identical conditions or with coatings whose degradation properties are known.
Radiation, temperature and humidity all contribute to the ageing process. Therefore, the apparatus
specified in this standard simulates all three factors.
The results obtained by this method do not necessarily directly relate to the results obtained under
natural exposure conditions. The relationship between these results needs to be established before the
method can be used to predict performance.
The standard test substrate is pine sapwood with the back side of panels coated. However,
supplementary information on coating performance may be obtained by conducting optional tests on
additional wood species, on pine, modified or impregnated by industrial processes or without coating
the back side of the panels.
5 Apparatus
5.1 Test chamber
The test chamber consists of an enclosure made from corrosion-resistant material which houses the
lamps, a heated water tray, spray nozzles and test panel racks.
5.2 Lamps
A UV lamp emits UV light from a low pressure mercury arc. The required spectral distribution is
achieved by careful selection of the type of phosphor coating on the inner surface of the lamp and the
nature of the glass used in the construction of the tubes.
NOTE The principle construction details are described in EN ISO 16474-1.
The lamp shall be of type 1A (UVA 340) in accordance with EN ISO 16474-3 (peak emission at 340 nm).
5.3 Device for wetting the test panels
The test panels shall be wetted by condensation from the heated water tray and by spray. To prevent
spotting on to the test panels, water with a pH value between 5,0 and 7,5 and an electrical conductivity
of maximum 2 mS/m, measured at (25 ± 1) °C shall be used. See Annex D.
5.4 Black panel thermometer
Set the apparatus to operate at the specified parameters. The temperature shall be monitored by a
remote sensor attached to the black panel. The black panel thermometer shall be exposed to the same
exposure conditions as the specimens. Black panel thermometers shall be calibrated in accordance with
the manufacturer’s recommendations.
NOTE The construction of the black panel thermometer is described in ISO 16474-1.
5.5 Irradiance control
2
The irradiance at 340 nm shall be set to 0,89 W/(m nm) (see 7.3.1).
Apparatus equipped with an irradiance control system shall be calibrated in accordance with the
manufacturer’s recommendations.
8
---------------------- Page: 10 ----------------------
SIST EN 927-6:2019
EN 927-6:2018 (E)
Lamps within the apparatus without an irradiance control system need to be rotated and replaced in
accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations to compensate for lamp ageing.
6 Test panels
6.1 Wood
The wood shall be Scots Pine (Pinus sylvestris) that has been selected free of knots, cracks and resinous
streaks, to be straight-grained and of normal growth rate (i.e. 3 to 8 annual rings per 10 mm). The
inclination of the growth rings to the face shall be 5° to 45° (see Figure 1).
The wood shall be free from blue stain and evidence of surface or bulk fungal infection. Abnormal
porosity (caused by bacterial attack) shall be avoided (see Annex E).
The panels shall be selected to give a sapwood test surface on the convex side
