Scope
Content
This test method specifies the operating procedures for a controlled-irradiance, xenon-arc apparatus used for the accelerated exposure of various automotive interior trim components.
Test duration, as well as any exceptions to the specimen preparation and performance evaluation procedures contained in this document, are covered in material specifications of the different automotive manufacturers.
Any deviation to this test method, such as the use of optical filter combinations, is to be agreed upon by contractual parties.
Rationale
Content
This document is revised to correct a number of editorial errors, including an error in Section 2. Additionally, two technical updates are included. The first update is regarding the optional use of a window glass filter. The other update states 0.55 W·m-2·nm-1 as the recommended irradiance value and allows other values in the notes. This is inverse of the current table, which states no recommendation and includes the 0.55 W·m-2·nm-1 value in the notes.
These changes were initially published in a revision issued in 2023, but three parameters in Table 1 were accidentally omitted in that version. This revision restores them.
