31、ation with a low value of operational voltage, for example, below 100 V a.c. or d.c. (see IEC 60947-5-1, note 2 of 4.3.1.1). However, the development of electronic systems and programmable controllers in industrial processes increases the use of switching elements in low-voltage circuit control. It

32、is thus necessary to define how predictional behaviour of contacts in this area should be established (with an acceptable confidence level), by using precise conventional testing methods, down to specified values (such as 24 V, 1 mA; 5 V, 10 mA).

33、SWITCHGEAR AND CONTROLGEAR Part 5-4: Control circuit devices and switching elements Method of assessing the performance of low-energy contacts Special tests 1 Scope and object This part of IEC 60947 applies to separable contacts used in the utilization area considered, such as switching elements for

34、 control circuits. This standard takes into consideration two rated voltage areas: a) above (and including) 10 V (typically 24 V) where contacts are used for switching loads with possible electrical erosion, such as programmable controller inputs; b) below 10 V (typically 5 V) with negligible electr

35、ical erosion, such as electronic circuits. This standard does not apply to contacts used in the very low energy area of measurement, for example, sensor or thermocouple systems. The object of this standard is to propose a method of assessing the performances of low energy contacts giving useful defi

36、nitions; general principles of test methods which are to monitor and record the behaviour of contacts at each operation; functional bases for the definition of a general testing equipment; preferred test values; particular conditions for testing contacts intended for specific applications (such as s

37、witching of PC inputs); information to be given in the test report; interpretation and presentation of the rest results. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

41、pose of this part of IEC 60947, the following definitions apply. In this standard the term “time interval” is expressed as the “number of operating cycles”, as appropriate in definitions. 3.1.1 reliability probability that an item can perform a required function, under given conditions, for a given

42、time interval (t 1 , t 2 ) NOTE 1 It is generally assumed that the item is in a state to perform this required function at the beginning of the time interval. NOTE 2 The term “reliability” is also used to denote the reliability performance quantified by this probability (see IEV 191-02-06). IEV 191-

43、12-01 3.1.2 contact reliability probability that a contact can perform a required function, under given conditions, for a given number of operating cycles 3.1.3 failure termination of the ability of an item to perform a required function NOTE 1 After a failure the item has a fault. NOTE 2 “Failure”

44、is an event, as distinguished from “fault”, which is a state. NOTE 3 This concept as defined does not apply to items consisting of software only. IEV 191-04-01 1A consolidated version of this standard exists. 2A consolidated version of this standard exists. Page6 EN6094754:2003069-74-54 IEC:2002 7 3

45、.1.4 defect non-fulfilment of an intended requirement or an expectation for an entity, including one concerned with safety NOTE The requirement or expectation should be reasonable under the existing circumstances. 3.1.5 observed failure rate obfor a stated period in the life of an item, ratio of the

46、 total number of failures in a sample to cumulated observed number of cycles on that sample. The observed failure rate is to be associated with particular and stated numbers of operating cycles (or summation of operating cycles) in the life of the item and with stated conditions 3.1.6 assessed failu

47、re rate cfailure rate of an item determined by a limiting value or values of the confidence interval associated with a stated confidence level, based on the same data as the observed failure rate of nominally identical items NOTE 1 The source of the data should be stated. NOTE 2 Results can be accum

48、ulated (combined) only when all conditions are similar. NOTE 3 The assumed underlaying distribution of failures against time should be stated. NOTE 4 It should be stated whether a one-side or a two-side interval is being used. NOTE 5 Where only one limiting value is given, this is usually the upper

49、limit. 3.1.7 constant failure rate period that period, if any, in the life of a non-repaired item during which the failure rate is approx- imately constant IEV 191-10-09 NOTE In reliability engineering, it is often assumed that the failure rate is constant, that is that the times to failure are distributed exponentially. 3.1
