Specifies requirements for test sample and the methods of preparation for test.

Specifies the conditions on which the capacity and energy consumption of factory-made residential, commercial and industrial, electrically driven, mechanical-compression, single-package and split-system, ducted airconditioners employing air- and water-cooled condensers and ducted heat pumps employing air-cooled condensers are based.

This Standard specifies a method for the determination of the thickness loss of textile floor coverings under dynamic loading. It is applicable to all types of textile floor coverings with a surface that is level in height and construction. It does not apply to other textile floor coverings unless the areas of different thickness or construction can be tested separately.

This Standard describes a method for determining the strength of the bond between the backing components of a textile floor covering which can be peeled apart. This method is applicable to tufted carpets which have primary and secondary backing materials forming a bonded composite substrate.

This Standard specifies a method for the determination of the thickness of pile above the substrate of a textile floor covering. It is applicable to all textile floor coverings with pile capable of being shorn from the substrate, but not to textile floor coverings of varying pile thickness or density, unless the areas can be measured separately.

The objective of this Standard is to provide manufacturers and others seeking to determine certain performance and size characteristics of a textile floor covering with suitable methods for obtaining this information.

Identical adoption of ISO 1765:1986, this standard specifies a basic method for the determination of the thickness of machine-made textile floor coverings. Where areas of different thickness or construction exist, these should be tested separately if possible.
