32、severities to which products are subjected when mounted for stationary use at weatherprotected locations under use conditions, including periods of erection work, down time, maintenance and repair. Weatherprotected locations, where products may be mounted for stationary use permanently or temporaril

33、y, include land-based and offshore enclosed and sheltered locations. Use in and on vehicles is excepted. The environmental conditions specified in this standard are limited to those which may directly affect the performance of products. Only environmental conditions as such are considered. No specia

34、l description of the effects of these conditions on the products is given. Environmental conditions directly related to fire or explosion hazards and conditions related to ionizing radiation are excluded. Any other unforeseen incidents are also excluded. The possibility of their occurrence should be

35、 taken into account in special cases. Microclimate within a product is not included. Conditions of stationary use at non-weatherprotected locations, portable and non-stationary use, use in vehicles and ships, conditions of storage and transportation, and microclimates inside products are given in ot

36、her sections of IEC721-3. A limited number of classes of environmental conditions is given, covering a broad field of application. The user of this standard should select the lowest classification necessary for covering the conditions of the intended use. 2 Normative references The following normati

37、ve documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this section of IEC721-3. Atthe time of publication, the editions indicated were valid. All normative documents are subject to revision, and parties to agreements based on this section of IEC721-3 are enc

38、ouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the most recent editions of the normative documents indicated below. Members of IEC and ISO maintain registers of currently valid International Standards. IEC721-1:1990, Classification of environmental conditions Part1: Environmental parameters and

39、their severities. IEC721-2-1:1982, Classification of environmental conditions Part2: Environmental conditions appearing in nature Section1: Temperature and humidity Amendment1(1987).

40、rs and their severities Section0: Introduction Amendment1(1987). 3 Definitions In addition to the definitions in clause3 of IEC721-1, the following definitions apply to this standard: 3.1 stationary use the product is mounted firmly on the structure or on mounting devices or it is permanently placed

41、 at a certain site. It is not intended for portable or non-stationary use, but short periods of handling during erection work, down time, maintenance and repair at the location are included 3.2 weatherprotected location a location at which the product is protected from weather influences: totally we

42、atherprotected location (enclosedlocation): direct weather influences aretotally excluded; partially weatherprotected location (shelteredlocation): direct weather influences are not totally excluded. 4 General For further general guidance, see IEC721-3-0. During periods of erection work, which are o

43、ften connected with down time, the user should be aware that conditions might differ from those experienced during the period of operation. Therefore the selection of another class may be necessary for this period, unless special precautions have been taken. The severities specified are those which

44、will have a low probability of being exceeded. All specified values are maximum or limit values. These values may be reached, but do not occur permanently. Depending on the local situation there may be different frequencies of occurrence related to a certain period of time. Such frequencies of occur

45、rence should be considered for any environmental parameter. They should additionally be specified if applicable. Information on duration and frequencies of occurrence is given in Amendment No.1 to IEC721-3-0 as clause6.EN60721-3-3:1995 6 BSI 03-2000 Attention is drawn to the fact that combinations o

46、f the environmental parameters given may increase the effect on a product. This applies especially to the presence of high relative humidity in addition to biological conditions or to conditions of chemically or mechanically active substances. The environmental conditions present at a location may b

47、e affected by other influences, e.g.heat dissipation sources, special process conditions, etc. Measurements of the environmental conditions present at a location should be made at a representative point in the vicinity of the product. It is recognized that extreme or special environmental conditions

48、 may exist. Specifications for products to operate under such special conditions are a matter for negotiation between supplier and user. 5 Classification of groups of environmental parameters and their severities A number of classes for climatic conditions (K), special climatic conditions (Z), biolo

49、gical conditions(B), chemically active substances (C) and mechanically active substances (S) and mechanical conditions (M) are specified in Table 1 to Table 6. This classification allows a number of possible combinations of environmental conditions, which bear upon products wherever used. It represents the real situation in respect of world-wide conditions of use, due to local influences of open-air climate, construction of buildings, mounting, process conditions, etc. (See also clause6.)
