Explosives for civil uses - High explosives - Part 7: Determination of safety and reliability at extreme temperatures
This European Standard specifies the special conditions and procedures permitting the extension to wider ranges of applicability of the following test methods:- determination of resistance to hydrostatic pressure - verification of the means of initiation - determination of transmission of detonation.Standardised test methods at extreme temperatures for the following purposes are not given:- determination of sensitiveness to friction - determination of sensitiveness to impact - determination of resistance to water - determination of the initiating capability of boosters - determination of velocity of detonation.NOTE In these cases, the manufacturer of the explosive should provide a suitable test method and, in cases where the results should be checked by an independent institution or authority, the manufacturer and the institution or authority should agree upon a suitable test method.
