ISO 4892-2 : Automotive Accelerated Weathering Standards

Porsche / General Standard. Plastics method of exposure to laboratory light sources.

ISO 4892 specifies methods of exposing samples to laboratory light sources with the addition of moisture, humidity, temperature, to simulate the conditions which it is expected to endure in its real-life application.

ISO 4892-2 exposes samples to xenon arc light.  This test can be conducted using outdoor filters or indoor window glass filters depending on your requirements with several cycle options on offer.
