b. Temperature Pre-Treatment – Hot Environment.

This treatment should be done before the other series of test by heating the baton to 70 deg C for 24 hours. Heating elements are electric powered elements. Heating room are 1200x650x300 mm and have a door with minimum opening are 600 x 250 mm. Room temperature should be adjustable from 30 to 80 deg c. Outer wall of heating room temperature should be below 40 deg C under maximum operation temperature. Using electric power of VAC 380 v, 3phasa.

c. Impact Test. Giving an impact to the baton that is mounted to 2 supports at its end by a metal

material as the pounder. The Test equipment should be able to give impact energy as 100 joule. The pounder should be placed to a track that makes the pounder to hit the same axis of baton. The pounder material should made from material with 60 HRC and pounce area is formed as an arc of 20mm radius. The distance between 2 supports should be adjustable and rigid to the ground as its reference during the test occurred. The supports are designed to be able to resist the impact and only from its axis of impact. All parts which made of steel should made from stainless steel or hot dipped galvanize in case of the possibilty of paint removal is high. d. Flexural Test. Giving an eccentric, constant and measureable force to baton that is mounted to 1 support at its end. The support must be able to grip baton forcefully with grip as long as 20cm. The equipment should be able to produce adjustable force through compressing rod up to 20kgf. Compressing rod velocity must be constant and adjustable from 5 to 20 mmminute. Distance between compressing rod and support are 40 cm. All parts which made of steel should made from stainless steel or hot dipped galvanize in case of the possibilty of paint removal is high. e. Chemical Resistance Test. To determine the resistability of baton against submersion of chemical solution. 1 The submersion pool are made of material that can resist chemical solutions as followed: a Hidrocloric Acid b Sulfate Acid c Caustic Soda d Aceton e Terpentin 2 Submersion pool dimensions are 800 x 150 x 150mm and completed with baton mountings. 3 Subermsion pool equipped with door and sight glass as watch hole. The door must be sealed perfectly and be able to prevent chemical vapor leakage. 4 Equipped with breather hose, diameter 1”, and connected to nylon hose which is run to outside laboratory’s room. The nylon end is connected to spark arrester. 5 Equipped with drain port and valve made of SS316 and connected to nylon hose to drain the chemical solution and stored it to storage tank. 6 Submersible pool should have rigid pedestals that are rigidly mounted to the ground. 7 Submersible pool’s height should be 700mm of the ground. 8 Equipped with a pump that are explosion proof and can withstand the following chemical solution as it is functioned to transfer the solution to the pool from storage tanks. f. Completed with operation procedure.

5. RIOT HELMET TEST

Riot Helmet Test consist of : a. Impact Test. Impact test give an impact to simulate force by impact of blunt objects or if the helmet user falls from height. Helmet is pounced to pounce material with 150 joule energy. 5 SPEKTEK ALAT LABORATORIUM PENGEMBANGAN INDUSTRI TEKNOLOGI KEPOLISIAN KSA T.A. 2011. Helmet is mounted to head figure which is mounted to a track that produce hit point is same for several tests. Pounce material hardness is 60 HRC with pounce area is formed by an arc with 20mm radius. Equipped with accelerometer that can measures 600g in 1msec and can be detachable for other measurements. All parts which made of steel should made from stainless steel or hot dipped galvanize in case of the possibilty of paint removal is high. b. Penetration Resistance Test. To determine the helmet strength against sharp ended objects. The equipment is consisted of stabbing system, head figure as helmet mounting, and sensor for determine whether helmets are perforated or not. Stabbing system could produce 90 Joule energy when stabbing. Stabber must have 60 HRC hardness and the tip point dimension are 0.5mm radius at 60 degree. Helmets mounting are form as similar as human’s head to give the better simulation. Sensor should be able to giving signals when the penetration is able to pierce the helmets or when it is not. All parts which made of steel should made from stainless steel or hot dipped galvanize in case of the possibilty of paint removal is high. c. Tension Test. Determine the strength of tightening rope of the helmets by giving tension to rope when it is locked. The strength is determined by observing the elongation of rope. Consisted of the pulling system and head figure as helmets mounting. Pulling system is operated by air pneumatic and can produce force Initial force of 25kgf to be held for certain times, and Advanced force of 150kgf to be held for another certain times. Equipped with elongation gauge or distance meter to determine and record the elongation of rope at initial and advanced force. d. Face Shield Drop Test. Face Shield Drop test giving a hit to face shield of the helmet and observing the after effect for the user. Face Shield Drop test consisted of pounce system and head figure as helmet and sensor mounting. Pouncer system could produce energy of 10 Joule. Pouncer is mounted to a track that led the pouncer to hit the same position of the face shield for several tests. Pouncer material hardness is 60 HRC with pouncer area is half spherical of 45mm diameter. Helmets must be mounted so the pouncer will hit the face shield perpendicularly. Sensor is set to measure deflection and positioned behind the face shield at the exact position the pouncer hit. All parts which made of steel should made from stainless steel or hot dipped galvanize in case of the possibilty of paint removal is high. e. Light Transmission Test. Light Transmission test to compare light intensity with and without passing the face shield. Light Transmission test consisted of light source, luxmeter, face shield mounting, and dark room. Light source, face shield mounting and luxmeter are positioned as one optic path and the distance between those components can be adjust easily. Light source, face shield mounting and luxmeter shoule be enclosed by a box to perform as dark room. The box should be able to open easily and the inner material is made of non-reflecting material and painted black. f. Completed with operation procedure.
