Aerospace Series - Fibres and Cables, Optical, Aircraft Use - Test Methods - Part 510: Bending Test
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 3745-510 standard outlines a test method for measuring the attenuation variation of optical cables when subjected to mechanical bending under load. This standard is applicable to optical cables used in aircraft and aims to ensure their performance and reliability during operation.
The test method described in this standard involves subjecting optical cables to bending under load at the maximum and minimum operating temperatures. The purpose of this test is to assess the impact of mechanical bending on the attenuation of the optical cables. By measuring the attenuation variation, it is possible to determine if the optical cables can maintain their performance and transmit signals effectively when subjected to bending stresses.
Compliance with DIN EN 3745-510 ensures that optical cables used in aerospace applications meet the necessary reliability and performance standards. This standard provides a standardized method for testing optical cables, allowing manufacturers and operators to assess and compare the bending performance of different cable designs.
