1、Designation: B 684 97 (Reapproved 2008)Standard Specification forPlatinum-Iridium Electrical Contact Materials1This standard is issued under the fixed designation B 684; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of l

2、ast revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers an 85 % plat

The values given in parentheses are mathematicalconversions to SI units that are provided

4、 for information onlyand are not considered standard.1.3 The original specification, B 684 - 81, covered the 85 %platinum 15 % iridium alloy. The 1997 revision of this speci-fication added the 90 % platinum 10 % iridium alloy.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, i
