Industrial identification Environmental tests
In addition to environmental influences , marking materials and their markings are often subjected to mechanical influences . It must not be possible to scratch the marking off and abrasive industrial cleaning agents must not render the marking illegible . Furthermore , the marking materials must also remain securely fixed in place even when subjected to vibration . The materials used by Phoenix Contact also fully satisfy all standards and requirements in this area .
FINAT test methods
There are a total of 24 FINAT test methods for adhesive label material . Phoenix Contact tests label materials in accordance with test methods 1 , 2 , and 9 . Test methods 1 and 2 test the permanent adhesion to various base materials at peeling angles of 180 ° and 90 °, respectively . In contrast to these , test method 9 tests the initial adhesive strength ( loop tack ). This is the force necessary to separate a loop of the test material that is affixed to a test surface at a specified speed .
