21、TIC INTERCONNECTING DEVICES AND PASSIVE COMPONENTS BASIC TEST AND MEASUREMENT PROCEDURES Part 2-21: Tests Composite temperature/humidity cyclic test 1 Scope The purpose of this part of IEC 61300 is to determine the resistance of a fibre optic device to the deteriorative effects of high temperature,

22、humidity and cold conditions. It is intended to reveal defects in a device under test (DUT) caused by breathing as opposed to absorption of moisture. The test covers the effect of the freezing of trapped water in cracks and fissures as well as condensation. However, the degree of condensation will v

23、ary depending on the size and thermal mass of the DUT. This test differs from other cyclic damp heat tests in that it derives its increased severity from: a) a greater number of temperature variations leading to pumping actions in a given time; b) a greater cyclic temperature range; c) a higher rate

24、 of change of temperature; d) the inclusion of a number of excursions to sub-zero temperature. This type of test is particularly important for fibre optic devices made of a variety of different materials. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application

27、surements Attenuation 3 General description This procedure is conducted in accordance with IEC 60068-2-38, test Z/AD. The DUT is placed in a humidity chamber and subjected to 10 temperature-humidity cycles, each of 24 h duration. During any five of the first nine cycles after exposure to the humidit

28、y subcycle, the DUT shall be subjected to cold. BS EN 61300-2-21:201061300-2-21 IEC:2009(E) 5 4 Apparatus 4.1 General The exposure to moisture, followed by cold, can either be performed in one chamber or in two separate chambers. 4.2 Chamber for the exposure to moisture The chamber for the exposure

29、to moisture shall be so constructed that: a) The temperature can be varied between 25 C 2 C and 65 C 2 C in a period of between 1 h 30 and 2 h 30 for both rising and falling temperatures. b) The relative humidity can be maintained at 93 % RH 3 % RH during the periods of constant or rising temperatur

30、e and between 88 % RH 8 % RH during the falling temperature periods. c) Care shall be taken to ensure that the conditions prevailing at any point in the working space are uniform and are as similar as possible to those prevailing in the immediate vicinity of suitably located temperature and humidity

31、 sensing devices. The air in the chamber shall be continuously stirred at a rate necessary to maintain the specified conditions of temperature and humidity. d) The DUT shall not be subjected to radiant heat from the chamber conditioning processes. e) Condensed water is continuously drained from the

32、chamber and not used again until it has been repurified. f) Precautions shall be taken to ensure that no condensed water from the walls and roof of the test chamber can fall on the DUT. 4.3 Chamber for exposure to cold The chamber for exposure to cold shall be so constructed that: a) The temperature

33、 can be maintained at 10 C 2 C. b) Care shall be taken to ensure that the conditions prevailing at any point in the working space are uniform and are as similar as possible to those prevailing in the immediate vicinity of suitably located temperature-sensing devices. The air in the chamber shall be

34、continuously stirred. c) Care shall be taken that the thermal capacity of the DUT does not appreciably influence conditions within the chamber. 4.4 Humidity chamber The humidity chamber may be used for exposure to cold in which case it shall meet the requirements of 4.2 and in addition shall be so c

35、onstructed that: a) The temperature can be lowered from 25 C 2 C to 10 C 2 C in a period of not more than 30 min. b) The DUT can be held at a temperature of 10 C 2 C for a period of 3 h. c) The temperature can be raised from 10 C 2 C to 25 C 2 C in a period of not more than 90 min. 4.5 Optical sourc

36、e and detector The optical source and detector used to measure changes in attenuation shall comply with those specified in IEC 61300-3-4.

37、cified in the relevant specification. The specimen shall be terminated with a sufficient length of fibre cable to facilitate connection with the optical source and the detector. Clean the optical and mechanical parts of the DUT according to the manufacturers instructions. 5.2 Pre-conditioning (see F

38、igure 1) Unless otherwise specified, the DUT, switched off, ready for-use-state, shall be subjected to 55 C 2 C with a relative humidity not exceeding 20 % RH for a period of 24 h prior to the conditioning. The DUT shall then be allowed to attain thermal stability at standard atmospheric conditions

41、cally checked as required by the relevant specification. 5.4 Conditioning 5.4.1 General The DUT shall be introduced into the humidity chamber, switched off, ready-for-use state, and mounted in the normal orientation, if this is known, or as otherwise specified and shall be subjected to 10 temperatur

42、e/humidity cycles, each of 24 h duration. During any five of the first nine of the above cycles after exposure to the humidity subcycle (a-f in Figure 2), the DUT shall be subjected to cold. This exposure may be performed either in the same chamber or in separate chambers. If separate chambers are u

43、sed for the high-temperature/high-humidity and low-temperature sub-cycles of the test, the DUT should not be subjected to thermal shock conditions unless it is known that they are insensitive to this degree of thermal shock. If a batch of DUT is subjected to thermal shock through the use of the two

44、chamber methods and significant failures occur, a further batch shall be retested with gradual change of temperatures and shall be considered to have passed the test successfully if no significant failures occur under these conditions. The remaining four of the first nine cycles shall be run without

45、 exposure to cold (see 5.4.2.1.). The humidity cycles prescribed are the same in all cases. 5.4.2 Description of 24 h cycle 5.4.2.1 Description of temperature/humidity subcycle (applicable to all cycles, see Figure 2) At “zero time” of every 24 h cycle, the chamber condition shall be controlled to a

46、 temperature of 25 C 2 C and relative humidity of 93 % RH 3 % RH. a) The temperature of the chamber shall be steadily raised to 65 C 2 C over a period of 2 h 30 min. During this period, the relative humidity shall be maintained at 93 % RH 3 % RH. b) The temperature and relative humidity in the chamb

47、er shall be maintained at 65 C 2 C and 93 % RH 3 % RH respectively until 5 h 30 after the start of the cycle. c) The temperature shall then be allowed to fall to 25 C 2 C over a period of 2 h 30 min . During this period, the relative humidity shall be maintained at 88 % RH 8 % RH. d) Beginning 8 h a

48、fter the start of the cycle, the temperature shall again be steadily raised to 65 C 2 C over a period of 2 h 30 min. During this period, the relative humidity shall be maintained at 93 % RH 3 % RH. e) The temperature and relative humidity in the chamber shall be maintained at 65 C 2 C and 93 % RH 3

49、% RH respectively until 13 h 30 after the start of the cycle. f) The temperature shall then be allowed to fall to 25 C 2 C over a period of 2 h 30 min. During this period, the relative humidity in the chamber shall be maintained at 88 % RH 8 % RH. g) The chamber shall then continue to run at a stabilised temperature of 25 C 2 C and relative humidity of 93 % RH 3
