13、on of the General Electrotechnical Standards Policy Committee. It is identical with IEC Publication68-3-3:1991 “Environmental testing Part3: Guidance Seismic test methods for equipments”, published by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). In 1993 the European Committee for Electrotech
14、nical Standardization (CENELEC) accepted IEC68-3-3:1991 as European Standard EN60068-3-3:1993. As a consequence of implementing the European Standard this British Standard is renumbered as BSEN60068-3-3 and any reference to BS2011-4.3 should be read as a reference to BSEN 60068-3-3. The title of BS
15、2011 has been changed to “Environmental testing” to correspond with the change in the title of IEC Publication68. This change reflects the fact that IEC Publication68 and BS2011 are concerned with the whole subject of testing, and avoids any possible confusion over whether it is the “procedures” or
16、the “testing” that are basic. Amendments are not being issued to the other Parts of BS2011, but their titles are being changed when these Parts are revised. The Technical Committee has reviewed the provisions of ISO2041:1975 to which reference is made in the text, and has decided that they are accep

A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are respons
18、ible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations.

General Introduction Guidance is included in each of the three test methods referred to in this standard but it is specific to th
30、e test method. The guidance in this standard is directed towards choosing the appropriate test method and applying it to seismic testing. This standard is to be used in conjunction with IEC Publication 68-1. 1 Object This guide applies primarily to electrotechnical equipments but its application can
31、 be extended to other equipments and to components. The verification of the performance of an equipment by analysis or by a combination of testing and analysis may be acceptable but is outside the scope of this guide, which is restricted to verification based entirely upon data from dynamic testing.
32、 This guide deals solely with the seismic testing of a full size equipment which can be tested on a vibration table. The seismic testing of an equipment is intended to demonstrate its ability to perform its required function during and/or after the time it is subjected to the stresses and displaceme
33、nts resulting from an earthquake. The object of this guide is to present a range of methods of testing which, when prescribed by the relevant specification, can be applied to demonstrate the performance of equipments for which seismic testing is required with the main aim of achieving qualification.
34、 NOTEQualification by so-called “fragility-testing” is not considered to be within the scope of this guide which has been prepared to give generally applicable guidance on seismic testing and specifically on the use of IEC Publication 68-2 test methods. The choice of the method of testing can be mad
35、e according to the criteria described in this guide. The methods themselves are closely based on published IEC test methods. This guide is intended for use by manufacturers to substantiate, or by users to evaluate and verify, the performance of an equipment. 2 General considerations Two seismic clas
36、ses have been established: a general seismic class and a specific seismic class. Neither of these classes can be considered to be more demanding than the other. The difference between the two classes lies in the availability of and/or the accuracy in defining the characteristics of the seismic envir
37、onment. When high reliability safety equipment for a specified environment is required, such as safety related equipment in nuclear power plants, the use of precise data is necessary and, therefore, the specific seismic class is applicable and not the general seismic class. Appendix A contains a flo
38、w chart for the selection of the test class (general seismic class or specific seismic class) and four flow charts (A1 toA4) covering the possibilities discussed in this guide. To obtain the maximum advantage from this guide it is strongly recommended that the flow charts be studied very thoroughly.
39、 2.1 General seismic class This class covers equipments for which the relevant seismic motion does not result from a specific study taking into account the characteristics of the geographic location and of the supporting structure or building. In the case of equipments in this class, the seismic mot
40、ion is generally characterized by one datum which is a peak acceleration at the ground level. This acceleration is derived from the seismic data relative to the area of interest. When an equipment is not mounted at ground level, the transmissibility of the building and/or the supporting structure sh
41、ould be taken into account. 2.2 Specific seismic class This class covers the equipment for which the relevant seismic motion results from a specific study taking into account the characteristics of the geographic location and of the supporting structure or building. For equipment in this class, the
42、seismic motion is defined by response spectra (evaluated for different damping ratios) or by a time-history. 3 Definitions The terms used in this standard are generally defined in ISO Standard2041 or in IEC Publications68-1, 68-2-6, 68-2-57 and 68-2-59. Where, for the convenience of the reader, a de
43、finition from one of these sources is included here, the derivation is indicated and departures from the definitions in those sources are also indicated. The additional terms and definitions that follow are also applicable for the purpose of this standard.EN60068-3-3:1993 4 BSI 03-1999 3.1 assembly
44、two or more devices sharing a common mounting or supporting structure 3.2 bandpass at 3 dB frequency intervals defined by the points possessing an ordinate larger than or equal to times the maximum value of the plot (seeFigure 1) 3.3 basic response spectrum unmodified response spectrum defined by th
45、e characteristics of the building, its floor level, damping ratio, etc. and obtained from a specific ground motion (seeFigure 1) NOTEThe basic response spectrum is generally of the narrow band type at floor level. 3.4 broad-band response spectrum response spectrum that describes the motion indicatin
46、g that a number of interacting frequencies exist which must be treated as a whole (seeFigure 2c) NOTEThe bandwidth is normally greater than one octave. 3.5 critical frequency (definition technically equivalent to that in Sub-clause8.1 of IEC Publication68-2-6) frequencies at which: malfunctioning an
47、d/or deterioration of performance of the specimen which are dependent on vibration are exhibited, and/or mechanical resonances and/or other response effects occur, for example chatter. 3.6 crossover frequency (definition technically equivalent to that of ISO2041) frequency at which the characteristi
48、c of a vibration changes from one relationship to another NOTEFor example, a crossover frequency may be that frequency at which the vibration amplitude changes from a constant displacement value versus frequency to a constant acceleration value versus frequency. 3.7 damping (not identical with ISO20
49、41 definitions) generic term ascribed to the numerous energy dissipation mechanisms in a system. In practice, damping depends on many parameters, such as the structural system, mode of vibration, strain, applied forces, velocity, materials, joint slippage, etc. 3.7.1 critical damping minimum viscous damping that will allow a displaced system to return to its initial position without oscillation 3.7.2 damping ratio ratio of actual damping to critical damping in a system with viscous damping 3.8 direction factor factor
