21、IEC68-2 determines the corrosive influence of operating and storage indoor environments on electrotechnical products components, equipment and materials, particularly contacts and connections, considered separately, integrated into a subassembly or assembled as a complete equipment. It provides test

22、 methods giving information, on a comparative basis, to aid the selection of materials, choice of production processes and component design, with regard to corrosion resistance. A guide to the selection of methods and test duration is provided in Annex C. 1.2 Normative references The following norma

23、tive documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this part of IEC68-2. At the time of publication, the editions indicated were valid. All normative documents are subject to revision and parties to agreements based on this part of IEC68-2 are encourage

24、d to investigate the possibility of applying the most recent editions of the normative documents listed below. Members of IEC and ISO maintain registers of current valid International Standards. IEC512-2:1985, Electromechanical components for electronic equipment; basic testing procedures and measur

25、ing methods Part2: General examination, electrical continuity and contact resistance tests, insulation tests and voltage stress tests. ISO431:1981, Copper refinery shapes. 2 Test apparatus The test apparatus consists of a climatic system, test enclosure, gas delivery system and means for measuring g

26、as concentration. Details of design and construction are optional but shall be such that the conditions specified for each method are fulfilled throughout the working volume and shall comply with the following requirements: water droplets or aerosols shall not be injected into the test enclosure; ai

27、r and water used shall be sufficiently clean in order not to affect performance of the test; the test atmosphere shall flow through the enclosure in such a manner as to ensure uniform test conditions within the working volume; the sampling point for gas analyses shall be in the working volume of the

28、 test enclosure; the exhaust gases shall be treated in accordance with the relevant regulatory stipulations. The working volume is the volume within which the individual corrosion (weight increase of copper coupons expressed in mg/(dm 2 day) according to Annex A) at each location differs by maximum1

29、5% from the average corrosion of all coupons within the working volume. 3 Severities The test severity shall be given in the relevant specification. It is defined by: the test method, chosen from Table 1, and the test duration. Preferred durations are4,7,10,14and21days. Four methods are defined. The

30、 different parameters for each method are summarized in the following Table 1. A guidance for the use of each method is given in clause C.3. 4 Pre-conditionning The relevant specification may require pre-conditioning of specimens, for example cleaning or mechanical operation. 5 Initial measurements

31、Initial measurements shall be carried out as required by the relevant specification. Generally these measurements are: contact resistance measurements for electromechanical product components (IEC512-2, test2a); insulation resistance measurements (IEC512-2, test3a). 6 Testing Samples exposed in the

32、tests shall be: the specimens being evaluated; corrosion monitor materials. 6.1 Test specimens The relevant product specification shall define the conditions of the specimens during the test, for example mated or unmated for connectors; contacts open or closed for switches, operated or electrically

33、loaded. The duration of the operation or loading of heat-dissipating specimens, shall be such that the temperature and the relative humidity in the working volume remain within the specified tolerances.EN 60068-2-60:1996 4 BSI 06-1999 Table 1 The conditions of the specimens and the test chamber shal

34、l be such that condensation on the specimens shall not occur when they are introduced into the test chamber. 6.2 Corrosivity monitoring materials Copper coupons shall be exposed with the test specimens in order to verify the conformance of the test specimen. A minimum of five test coupons of copper,

35、 prepared in accordance with Annex A, shall be exposed with the test specimens for the same duration. Their increase in weight during the test, measured with appropriate sensitivity, shall be taken as a measure of the corrosion and as a monitor of the reproducibility and repeatibility of the test. O

36、ther vehicles, for example, gold-plated coupons or other specimens (seeB.6.3) can be used in addition to the copper coupons. 6.3 Testing procedure One of the following test procedures shall be used: Test procedure 1 When the test atmosphere does not contain chlorine (method1) or when the method for

37、measuring chlorine concentration does not suffer interference from the other gases present in the test atmosphere, the following procedure shall be adopted: start the flow of humid air, allow to stabilize and adjust temperature and humidity; start the flow of the gases into the humid air stream and

38、allow to stabilize; measure and adjust gas concentrations. Allow to stabilize. When it is necessary to measure chlorine concentration, total chlorine (not only chlorine gas, Cl 2 ) present in the test atmosphere is taken as a measure of chlorine gas concentration. The chlorine added to the test atmo

39、sphere shall still only be in the form of chlorine gas, Cl 2 ; introduce the test specimens and the corrosion monitoring materials as prescribed in6.2. The copper coupons shall be exposed with the test specimens for the full test period. The test specimens and the corrosion monitoring materials shal

40、l be distributed uniformly in the working volume. They shall not come in contact with one another nor shield one another from the test atmosphere. The test specimens shall be in the condition (for example, mated/unmated, electrically loaded or operated) as stated in the relevant specification. The t

41、est duration shall be measured from this point; Parameters Method 1 Method 2 Method 3 Method 4 H 2 S (10 9vol/vol) a 10020 105 10020 105 NO 2(10 9vol/vol) b 20050 20050 20020 Cl 2(10 9vol/vol) c 105 205 105 SO 2(10 9vol/vol) d 500100 20020 Temperature C 251 301 301 251 RH % 753 753 753 753 Volume ch

Measure and adjust, if ne

44、cessary, temperature, humidity and gas concentrations. During these adjustments, any overshooting of gas concentration shall be avoided. Maximum allowed duration of this period of stabilization and adjustments, to prescribed values, is24h; during the course of testing, temperature, humidity and gas

45、concentrations shall be kept within the prescribed limits. The chamber is allowed to be opened during the test. The number of openings shall be limited. No opening is allowed for a test duration shorter than4 days. One opening is allowed for a test duration of between4 and10 days. One opening per we

46、ek is allowed for a test duration exceeding10 days. The duration of these openings shall be limited to the time necessary to remove and introduce specimens; at the end of the test period, remove the specimens and the corrosion monitoring materials. Test procedure 2 When chlorine is present in the te

47、st atmosphere (methods2 to4) and when the method for measuring chlorine suffers interference from other gases in the test atmosphere, the following procedure shall be used: start the flow of humid air, allow to stabilize and adjust temperature and humidity; start the flow of chlorine into the humid

48、air stream and allow to stabilize; measure and adjust the chlorine concentration. Allow to stabilize; introduce the test specimens and the corrosion monitor materials as prescribed in6.2. The copper coupons shall be exposed with the test specimens for the full test period. The test specimens and the

49、 corrosion monitoring materials shall be distributed uniformly in the working volume. They shall not come in contact with one another nor shield one another from the test atmosphere. The test specimens shall be in the condition (for example, mated/unmated, electrically loaded or operated) as stated in the relevant specification; allow temperature, humidity and chlorine concentration to stabilize, which may require considerable time due to initially high re
