19、 is used for testing electomechanical components within the scope of IEC technical committee 48. It may also be used for similar devices when specified in a detail specification. The object of this part of IEC 60512 is to detail a standard test method to determine the ability of a fixed male tab and
20、 its fixing to withstand a specified torque. If so specified in the detail specification, forces other than torsional may be applied. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies
21、. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. IEC 60512-1-1, Connectors for electronic equipment Tests and measurements Part 1-1: General examination Test 1a: Visual examination 3 Preparations 3.1 Preparation of specimen The specimens sha
22、ll consist of a connector fitted with one or more male tabs. It may be wired if so specified in the detail specification. Any preconditioning given in the detail specification shall be applied. Three such specimens shall be prepared. 3.2 Equipment A universal testing machine suitable for the test pr
23、ocedure detailed in Clause 4 shall be required, equipped with all relevant test fixtures needed to hold the specimen under test. BS EN 60512-16-16:200860512-16-16 IEC:2008 5 3.3 Mounting If mounting of the specimen is appropriate, it shall be as specified in the component detail specification. P 0,8

25、on of the torque 4 Test method 4.1 General A torque T shall be applied to the fixed tab in the direction specified in Figure 1. The torque shall be steadily increased from zero to that specified in the component specification. This torque shall be maintained for 1 minute. The torque shall be removed
26、, and the (permanent) displacement of the tab shall be measured. Permanent displacement is defined as the difference between the initial position of the tab before application of any torque and its position after all torque is removed. At least 10 tabs shall be selected at random from the 3 specimen
27、s provided that at least one tab shall be near the periphery, and one, at or near, the centre of the connector insert or BS EN 60512-16-16:2008 6 60512-16-16 IEC:2008 housing. For inserts or housings having 3 or less tabs, all tabs shall be tested. This shall be repeated, on an adjacent (new) tab, w
28、ith the torque being applied in the opposite direction. 4.2 Measurements and requirements 4.2.1 Before testing Visual examination according to IEC 60512-1-1 shall be carried out. There shall be no defects which would impair the validity of the test. 4.2.2 During testing The displacement and permanen
29、t displacement of the component, measured at the plane of application of the torque shall be measured. NOTE In the case of a tab being made from a highly resilient material (e.g. spring steel or beryllium copper) the displacement may be large whilst the permanent displacement is negligible. In the c
30、ase of a tab being held in a plastic material, recovery of displacement of that material may take place over a period. Furthermore, as the properties of such plastic materials may vary considerably with temperature, these tests will normally be done at laboratory temperatures (NTP), and any deviatio
31、n from this should be given in the relevant detail specification. The permanent displacement shall not exceed any value given in the component detail specification. 4.2.3 After testing Visual examination according to IEC 60512-1-1 shall be carried out. There shall be no defects that would impair the
32、 normal functioning of the connector. This shall be judged by a mating test with its counterpart. 5 Details to be specified When this test is required by a detail specification, the following shall be given therein: a) whether preconditioning is required; b) whether the specimen is to be wired, and
33、if so, details of this; c) whether special mounting of the specimen is required; d) torque to be applied and orientation with respect to the tab; e) allowable permanent set; f) number of specimens to be tested shall be 3 unless otherwise specified; g) any deviation from the standard test method. _ B
