22、is part of IEC 60068 establishes a test method for determining the ability of components or equipment to withstand transportation, storage and use under conditions of high humidity. The object of this standard is to investigate the effect of high humidity at constant temperature without condensation

23、 on a specimen over a prescribed period. It is applicable to small equipment or components as well as large equipment, and can be applied to both heat-dissipating and non-heat-dissipating specimens. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in th

26、t procedure Test chamber and measuring system 4.1The temperature and humidity chamber shall be constructed and verified in accordance with specifications IEC 60068-3-6. The chamber and measuring system shall be such that sensing devices can be located in the working space to monitor the temperature

27、and humidity, NOTE For heat-dissipating specimens, the temperature and humidity near the specimen may be influenced by the effect of heat dissipation from the specimen. condensed water is drained from the chamber and not re-used unless purified, no condensed water from the walls and roof of the test

28、 chamber can fall on the specimen(s), BS EN 60068-2-78:201360068-2-78 IEC:2012 7 water utilized to maintain humidity levels has electrical conductivity of not more than 20 S/cm, the specimen under test shall not be subjected to radiant heat from the chamber conditioning devices, injected moisture, w

29、hen applicable, is injected remotely from the specimen and without being directly on it, the volume of the test chamber is at least five times the total volume of the specimen under test, a mounting device, when used, has minimum influence on the heat and humidity exchanges between specimen and surr

30、ounding conditions, unless otherwise specified in the relevant specification. Severity 4.2The test severity is defined by a combination of temperature, relative humidity (RH) and total test duration. Unless otherwise specified in the relevant specification, temperature and RH severities may be selec

31、ted from the following: Table 1 Temperature and relative humidity Temperature C Relative humidity % RH 30 2 93 3 30 2 85 3 40 2 93 3 40 2 85 3 Preferred test durations are: 12 h, 16 h, 24 h; 2 days, 4 days, 10 days, 21 days or 56 days. The total temperature tolerance of 2 K is intended to take accou

32、nt of absolute errors in the measurement, slow changes of temperature and temperature variations of the working space. However, in order to maintain the RH within the required tolerances, it is necessary to keep the temperature difference between any two points in the working space at any moment wit

33、hin narrower limits. The required humidity conditions will not be achieved if such temperature differences exceed 1 K. It may also be necessary to keep short-term fluctuations within 0,5 K to maintain the required humidity. Pre-conditioning 4.3The relevant specification may call for pre-conditioning

34、. Testing procedure 4.4The specimen shall be introduced into the chamber as required by the relevant specification. The specimen shall be introduced in the unpacked, switched-off, ready-for-use state, or as otherwise specified in the relevant specification. In certain cases the relevant specificatio

35、n may allow the introduction of the specimen in the chamber when this is already in the condition prescribed for the test; however, condensation on the specimen shall always be avoided. This can be obtained for small specimens by pre-heating them to the chamber temperature. Adjust the temperature in

36、 the chamber to the prescribed severity. In order to avoid condensation on the specimen, control the specimen temperature or allow the specimen to reach the temperature first and then adjust the humidity in the chamber to the prescribed severity. BS EN 60068-2-78:2013 8 60068-2-78 IEC:2012 Adjust th

37、e humidity to the prescribed severity within a period of time of not more than 2 h. Expose the specimen to the test conditions and duration as specified in the relevant specification. The duration is measured from the time the specified conditions are achieved. The relevant specification shall defin

38、e the operating conditions and the period (or periods) in which they shall be carried out. After conditioning at the prescribed severity and before the final measurement, the recovery procedure shall be followed. Recovery procedure 4.5The relevant specification shall prescribe the recovery method an

39、d duration. Recovery conditions are described in IEC 60068-1. 5 Measurements Initial measurements 5.1The specimen shall be visually inspected and electrically and mechanically checked, as required by the relevant specification. Intermediate measurements 5.2The relevant specification may call for mea

40、surements during the test procedure while the specimen is still in the chamber. If such measurements are required, the relevant specification shall define the measurements and the period (periods) at which they shall be carried out. For these measurements, the specimen shall not be removed from the

41、chamber. Final measurements 5.3The specimen shall be visually inspected and electrically and mechanically checked, as required by the relevant specification. 6 Information to be given in the relevant specification The following details shall be given as far as they are applicable: a) preconditioning

42、; b) initial measurements; c) details of mounting or supports; d) state of specimen (unpowered, powered, packaged, unpackaged, etc.); e) type of specimen heat dissipating or non-heat dissipating; f) test severities and tolerances 1) temperature, 2) relative humidity, 3) duration; g) intermediate mea
