29、al Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this e

30、nd and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Com

31、mittee interested in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non- governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in

32、accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations. 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from al

33、l interested IEC National Committees. 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held r

34、esponsible for the way in which they are used or for any misinterpretation by any end user. 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any diver

35、gence between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter. 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC m

36、arks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any services carried out by independent certification bodies. 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication. 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual expe

IEC 60068-2-18:2017 RLV IEC 2017 7 INTRODUCTION It is the intention of this part of IEC 60068 to fulfil the function of a basic publication 1)by making water tests available to product committees. A number of water tests are described in

47、 other IEC publications. Some of them are well established, for example, the test for classification of the second characteristic numeral of the IP Code, of IEC 60529. This document incorporates the majority of the most widely used tests, as well as making available further methods and increasing th

48、e number of severities. _ 1)IEC Guide 108:1994, The relationship between technical committees with horizontal functions and product committees and the use of basic publications 8 IEC 60068-2-18:2017 RLV IEC 2017 ENVIRONMENTAL TESTING Part 2-18: Tests Test R and guidance: Water 1 Scope and object Thi

49、s part of IEC 60068 provides methods of test applicable to products which, during transportation, storage or in service, may can be subjected to falling water drops, impacting water, immersion or high pressure water impact. The primary purpose of water tests is to verify the ability of enclosures, covers and seals to maintain components and equipment in good working order after and, when necessary, under a standardized drop field or immersion in water.
