11、IA-364-88A Page 1 TEST PROCEDURE No. 88A RESIDUAL MAGNETISM TEST PROCEDURE FOR ELECTRICAL CONNECTORS (From EIA Standards Proposal No. 5187, formulated under the cognizance EIA CE-2.0 Committee on National Connector Standards, and previously published in EIA-RS-364-88.) 1 Introduction 1.1 Scope This
12、standard establishes a test method to determine the residual magnetism of a connector after exposure to a specified magnetic field. NOTE Connectors with a relative magnetism of 2 MU as determined by EIA-364-54 can satisfy the nonmagnetism requirements in most applications. Residual magnetism should
13、only be required if the magnetic field constraints as associated with space flight applications warrant such stringent requirements. 2 Test resources 2.1 Equipment 2.1.1 A 0.5 Tesla magnet with an opening large enough for the passage of the specimen through the magnetic field. 2.1.2 A magnetometer a
14、nd a probe having an accuracy of 5%. 3 Test specimen 3.1 Description The test specimen shall have all contacts installed and mated unless otherwise specified in the referencing document. The specimen shall be fitted with such accessories an may be required by the referencing document. EIA-364-88A Pa
15、ge 2 3.2 Preparation The probe shall be placed horizontally on a nonmagnetic support with the probe positioned as far away from the measuring instrument as allowed by the connecting cord. The test area shall be relatively free from magnetic disturbances and magnetic fields other than the earths norm
16、al magnetic field. 4 Test procedure CAUTION Operating personnel shall remove jewelry that can affect both the test and the jewelry (such as rings, watches, bracelets, etc.). 4.1 Instrument setup The measuring instrument shall be set to the appropriate scale and adjusted to read zero by orienting the
17、 probe as necessary. 4.2 Exposure The specimen shall then be exposed to a magnetic field of 0.5 Tesla by passing the specimen between the magnetic poles three times. The specimen shall not touch the polar parts of the magnet during exposure. 4.3 After exposure Immediately after exposure, the specime
18、n shall be placed at a distance not exceeding 3 millimeters from the probe, without touching the probe. The specimen shall be scanned in various orientations to obtain a maximum reading on the measuring instrument. 5 Details to be specified The following details shall be specified in the referencing
19、 document: 5.1 Accessories to be fitted to the specimen 5.2 Maximum value of the residual magnetism in gammas 5.3 Magnetic exposure if different from 0.5 Tesla (5000 gauss) 5.4 Test specimen and magnetic field orientation 5.5 Number of specimens to be tested EIA-364-88A Page 3 6 Documentation Docume
