IEC60335-1 Ceramic Material Fuchsine and Methylated Spirit Pressure Test Apparatus

Standards & Clauses:

IEC60335-1:2016 “Household and similar electrical appliances-Safety-Part1:General requirements” clause 22.32

Samples and Restrictions:

Ceramic Material of electrical appliaces

Application:

It is use to determine if ceramic material is tightly sintered, consists of two parts: test container and pressure boosting device magenta.

Test Principle:

The ceramic material is broken into pieces that are immersed in a solution containing 1 g of fuchsine in each 100 g of methylated spirit. The solution is maintained at a pressure not less than 15 MPa for a period so that the product of the test duration in hours and the test pressure in megapascals is approximately 180.

The pieces are removed from the solution, rinsed, dried and broken into smaller pieces.

The freshly broken surfaces are examined and shall not show any trace of dye visible to the naked eye.

Technical Parameters:
