NF EN ISO 16474-3
Paints and varnishes - Methods of exposure to laboratory light sources - Part 3 : fluorescent UV lamps
ISO 16474-3:2013 specifies methods for exposing coatings to fluorescent UV lamps, heat and water in apparatus designed to reproduce the weathering effects that occur when materials are exposed in actual end-use environments to daylight, or to daylight through window glass.The coatings are exposed to different types of fluorescent UV lamps under controlled environmental conditions (temperature, humidity and/or water). Different types of fluorescent UV lamp may be used to meet all the requirements for testing different materials.Specimen preparation and evaluation of the results are covered in other ISO documents for specific materials.General guidance is given in ISO 16474‑1. Fluorescent UV lamp exposures for plastics are described in ISO 4892‑3.

The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:
- mandatory clauses to satisfy,
- non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.
The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document “ISO / IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents ”as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.
With Requirements, quickly access the main part of the normative text!
