AS 16890.4:2024 adopts and modifies ISO 16890 4:2022 which establishes a conditioning method to determine the minimum fractional test efficiency

AS 16890.3:2024 adopts and modifies ISO 16890 3:2016 which specifies the test equipment and the test methods used for measuring the gravimetric efficiency and resistance to air flow of air filter for general ventilation

Specifies essential safety requirements for plugs, socket-outlets, cable couplers and appliance couplers for operation at 50 Hz, with a rated voltage not exceeding 660 V and a rated current not exceeding 315 A intended for general industrial use. It is intended to be read in conjunction with AS/NZS 3100.

This Standard provides methods for determining the performance of external construction elements when exposed to direct flame impingement from the fire front.

This Standard provides general requirements and information for the methods in the AS 1289 series. It provides the following: (a) A list of related documents. (b) Definitions. (c) General requirements for apparatus used in a number of the methods and a list of Standards with which that apparatus is required to comply. (d) Soil groups for use in a number of the methods and related provisions.

Specifies methods for sampling and testing timber for moisture content by oven drying and by use of an electrical resistance moisture meter. Correction figures for a large number of Australian, New Zealand and imported species, seasoned, unseasoned and treated, are provided.

This Standard sets out the method for determining the ability of a smoke/heat release vent to operate and remain free from visible damage when exposed to wind of specific velocity.

This Standard describes the method for determining the withdrawal force required to remove tufts from a textile floor covering.

This Standard describes the procedure for determining total pile mass per unit area by complete dissection of textile floor coverings. The total pile mass per unit area can be expressed at its equilibrium condition or in terms of clean conditioned mass at agreed commercial allowances.

This Standard specifies a method for the measurement of the thickness of pile above the backing of a textile floor covering and is applicable to all textile floor coverings having a pile of cut or looped yarn. Where areas of different construction or thickness exist, these should be tested separately if possible. This method is non-destructive of the floor covering specimen and is useful particularly for production control in manufacture and for measurements on installed carpets.
