25、atic conditions, to which components (basic parts, assemblies, built-in units) may be subjected inside products, which are used under the climatic conditions as classified in sections IEC 721-3-3 and IEC 721-3-4. Characteristic parameters for the microclimates are high air temperature and high relat

26、ive air humidity. Further parameters of the climatic classes e.g. low temperature may affect the components additionally, but have not been considered here. A limited number of microclimatic classes is specified taking into consideration typical limiting high air temperatures of components. The user

27、 of this standard should select the lowest class necessary for covering the intended use. 2 Normative references The following normative documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this section of IEC 721-3.

Amendment 1 (1991) 3 Definitions In addition to the definitions in clause 3 of IEC 721-1 the following definitions apply to this standard: 3.1 microclimate the climatic condition at the place where a component is installed in the product. Only air temperature and

33、air humidity are taken into account 3.2 microclimatic class a classified microclimate designated by: the climatic class as specified in IEC 721-3-3 or IEC 721-3-4; the class of high air temperature see Table 1 a); the optional class of limited relative air humidity, in relation to the climatic class

34、 severity seeTable 1 b).EN60721-3-9:1993 4 BSI 12-1999 4 General Microclimates at the place where the components are installed in a product may differ significantly from the climatic conditions to which the product is subjected. The microclimates describe the climatic conditions at the place where t

35、he component is installed in a product e.g. inside an enclosure. These are essentially the climatic classes specified in IEC 721-3-3 or IEC721-3-4 but with the addition of severities of high air temperature and limited relative air humidity to account for external or appreciable self-generated heati

36、ng during operation. Microclimates can also be used to designate the operational conditions for components. When temperatures in excess of those of the environment itself occur inside a product, the relative air humidity and, therefore, also the humidity stress on the components is reduced. Even in

37、environments with a relative air humidity as high as 100%, the relative air humidity inside the product is reduced below65% by an excess temperature of10 C. Below this humidity level the corrosion effect of chemically active substances is very low. The microclimates described concern the case of pla

38、cing of components in enclosures with comparatively free access to the surrounding atmosphere. Difficult access of air (e.g. presence of non-tight seal of the enclosure) may produce more severe conditions as a result of suction of moisture into the enclosure and subsequent accumulation of water. Thi

39、s can result from frequent switching on and off of the product or rapid changes of temperature inside the product due to external climatic conditionse.g.rain, irradiation. Components in products without external heating or self-generated heating or in the non-operational state for a significant peri

40、od of time are affected directly by the conditions of the climatic class appropriate for a location. When changing between the climatic conditions with and without external heating or self-generated heating, the time for which the component is subjected to the climatic conditions has to be taken int

41、o consideration. For details on duration and frequency of occurrence, the values specified in IEC 721-3-0, Amendment 1 should be selected. For further guidance, see IEC 721-3-0. 5 Classification of microclimatic conditions The severities of high air temperature and of limited relative air humidity f

42、or a number of microclimatic classes are specified in Table 1. Table 1 Classification of microclimatic conditions Examples for the designation and marking of microclimatic classes are given in clause 6. Exceptional conditions may call for severities different from those of the classes; these should

43、be selected from the values specified in IEC 721-1. The graphical representation of a microclimatic class is given in clause A.1 of Annex A from which two characteristic corner points can be determined. For a selection of preferred microclimatic classes paired values of air temperature and relative

44、air humidity are stated in Table A.1 and Table A.2 of Annex A. The method described in Annex A, applies to the period of time when microclimatic conditions have reached a steady state.

47、tion and preferred microclimatic classes A.1 Graphical presentation of the microclimatic classes The climatogram described in the following and shown in Figure A.1 is drawn on the constitutional diagram for humid air defined in Appendix B of IEC 721-2-1. Figure A.1 is an example of the climatogram o

48、f microclimatic class 4K2/X2/Y3. The characteristic points and lines of the climatogram are obtained in the following manner: Draw the climatogram of climatic class 4K2. Mark the cornerpoints by A, B, C, D, E: A is the high air temperature at high absolute air humidity; B is the high relative air hu

49、midity at high absolute air humidity; C is the low air temperature at high relative air humidity; D is the low relative air humidity at low absolute air humidity; E is the high air temperature at low relative air humidity. Determine the difference between the air temperature of the microclimate (70 C) and the high air temperature of the climatic class (40 C) i.e. 30 C Shift the corner points A to E by the value of this difference between the high air temperatures of the microc
