Optical fibres – Part 1-31: Measurement methods and test procedures – Tensile strength

Category: IEC

Description

IEC 60793-1-31:2010(E) provides values of the tensile strength of optical fibre samples and establishes uniform requirements for the mechanical characteristic – tensile strength. The method tests individual lengths of uncabled and unbundled glass optical fibre. Sections of fibre are broken with controlled increasing stress or strain that is uniform over the entire fibre length and cross section. The stress or strain is increased at a nominally constant rate until breakage occurs. The main change with respect to the previous edition is the addition of comprehensive details, such as examples of fibre clamping as given in Annexes A, B and C.
