Standard Test Method of Accelerated Life of Iron-Chromium-Aluminum Alloys for Electrical Heating
ORDER

Scope

1.1 This test method covers the determination of the resistance to oxidation of iron-chromium-aluminum electrical heating alloys at elevated temperatures under intermittent heating using a constant-temperature cycle test. This test is used for internal comparative purposes only.

1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as the standard. The metric equivalents of inch-pound units may be approximate.

1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to become familiar with all hazards including those identified in the appropriate Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for this product/material as provided by the manufacturer, to establish appropriate safety and health practices, and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

Significance and Use

This test method is used by producers of electrical heating alloys to measure the cyclic oxidation resistance of these alloys.

Because of the effect of environment, design and use, the life values obtained from this test method may not correlate with that of an appliance or industrial heating unit.
