The structuring and a summary of the characteristics of the different tests are given in

14、 figure 1 and table I. It should be noted that the dust test of IEC 529 has its equivalent in the proposed method La2. See also annex A. 1.1 Scope This pari of IEC 68-2 specifies test methods to determine the effects of dust and sand suspended in air, on electrotechnical products. The test methods o

15、f this standard are not intended for the testing of air filters. Only method Lc2 is suitable for the simulation of the erosion effects of high velocity (more than 100 m/s) particles. 1.2 Description of Test L The dust and sand test is structured into three groups: La: non-abrasive fine dust. A test

16、which is primarily oriented towards investigation of the seals of the test specimen. The test specimen is exposed to a very fine dust in the form of talc or an equivalent. The effects of temperature cycling resulting in a pressure difference between the inside and outside of the specimen may be repr

17、oduced. Lb: free settling dust. A test which is oriented towards investigation of the effects when simulating conditions at sheltered locations. The test specimen is exposed to a low- density dust atmosphere created by the intermittent injection of a small quantity of dust which is allowed to fall b

18、y gravity onto the specimen. Lc: blown dust and sand. A test which is oriented towards investigation of the seals and the effect of erosion when simulating outdoor and vehicle conditions. The test specimen is exposed to either a turbulent or a laminar air flow to which is added a quantity of dust, s

19、and or a dustkand mixture.

I 4 Test La: non-abrasive fine dust I 4.1 Method Lal: cyclic air pressure I 4.1.1 Object The object of this test is to determine the degree of prote

29、ction against ingress of fine dust into electrotechnical products. 4.1.2 General description Method La1 is a dust test in which the specimen is exposed to a dust-laden air flow containing non-abrasive powder of particle size 75 pm (see 4.3). The test does not simulate natural or induced environments

30、. A vertical air flow downwards is specified for the test. For enclosures of a specific category the pressure in the dust chamber is varied cyclically in order to encourage the ingress of powder. 4.1.3 Description of test apparatus The test chamber shall expose the test specimen to a mainly vertical

31、, non-laminar air flow containing a specified quantity of test dust. For this purpose, the test dust shall be agitated and blown into a sealed chamber. It shall be possible to cycle the chamber pressure as required by 4.1.4.6. I i 1 Dust settled in the base of the test chamber shall be brought back

32、into circulation. BSI BS%EN*bOOb8- 2-64 96 W Lb24bb 05bL72L T53 Page 7 EN 60068-2-68 : 1996 The volume of the specimen shall be no more than 25 o/o of the test chamber volume and its base shall be no more than 50 /O of the horizontal working space surface of the test chamber. If the size of the spec

33、imen does not comply with this standard, the relevant specification shall prescribe which of the following procedures shall be applied: a) testing of individually enclosed sections of the product; b) testing of representative.parts of the product comprising components such as doors, ventilating open

34、ings, seats, shaft seals etc, with the delicate parts of the product such as terminals, collector rings etc, in position at the time of testing; c) testing of smaller products having the same design details as full scale products. An example of a suitable test apparatus is given in figure 3. 4.1.4 T

35、est conditions 4.1.4.1 Test dust The test dust consists of dry fine-granular non-abrasive powder which shall be able to pass through a square-meshed sieve with a nominal wire diameter of 50 pm and a nominal width between wires of 75 pm. Talc can be used for this test as analysis shows that it meets

36、these requirements (see 4.3.4.2). The test dust shall not be used for more than 20 tests. Care should be taken to keep the powder dry to maintain its fine granularity. It shall be dried by heating for 2 h at +80 “C before use. 4.1.4.2 Dust concentration The quantity of test dust used for the test sh

37、all be sufficient to obtain a uniform deposition on the reference surface in the chamber of (600 f 200) g/mYh. 4.1.4.3 Air flow The air flow in the test chamber shall be mainly vertical from top to bottom and it should not be laminar. 4.1.4.4 Air velocity The air velocity shall give the possibility

38、to generate a homogeneous distribution of the dust in the test chamber. 4.1.4.5 Humidity The relative humidity in the test chamber shall be less than 25 %. This may be achieved by raising the test chamber air temperature. (see clause A.3). BSI BS*EN*60068- 2-68 96 1624669 0561722 T Page 8 EN 60068-2

39、-68 : 1996 4.1.4.6 Depending on the operating conditions there are two different categories of specimen enclosures. Air pressure in the specimen Category 7: enclosures where an air pressure different from the environmental atmos- pheric air pressure may occur, for example caused by thermal cycling e

40、ffects during operation. Category 2: Enclosures where the air pressure is that of the ambient air pressure. The relevant specification shall state the category of the enclosure and the pressure reduction. 4.1.4.6.1 A specimen with a category 1 enclosure shall be introduced into the test chamber and

41、mounted in its normal operating position. It shall be submitted to periods of reduced pressure specified in figure 2. The pressure reduction below ambient shall be 2 kPa (20 mbar) or 5 kPa (50 mbar), as prescribed in the relevant specification. The dust shall be injected during each single cycle as

42、shown in figure 2. 4.1.4.6.2 A specimen with a category 2 enclosure shall be introduced into the test chamber and mounted in its normal operating position. The vacuum pump shall not be operating in such a case. 4.1.4.7 Severities The test severity defined by air pressure in the chamber and duration

43、of test, depending on the category of enclosure (see 4.1.4.6) shall be prescribed by the relevant specif ication. Category 7: pressure reduction of 2 kPa (20 mbar) or 5 kPa (50 mbar), as required by the relevant specification, for a duration of 2 h. Category 2: atmospheric pressure for a duration of

44、 4 h. 4.1.5 Preconditioning The relevant specification may call for a preconditioning. 4.1.6 initiai measurements The specimen shall be submitted to visual, dimensional and functionai checks prescribed by the relevant specification. 4.1.7 Testing The test chamber air shall be at a temperature high e

45、nough to ensure a relative humidity of 25 % or less. The specimen, while being at the ambient temperature of the laboratory, shall be introduced into the test chamber in the unpacked, switched-off, “ready for use“ state, in its normal operating position or as otherwise specified in the relevant spec

46、ifi- cation. In the case of multiple specimens, care shall be taken that the specimens neither touch each other nor shield each other against the influence of dust. BSI BS%EN*h0068- 2-68 Yb lb24bbY 05b1723 82b = Page 9 EN 60068-2-68 : 1996 The relevant specification may call for the specimen to be s

47、witched on and/or operated during the test. Dust shall be introduced into the chamber so that the specified concentration is maintained during the time specified for injection (category 1) or throughout the test duration (category 2). At the end of the conditioning, the specimen shall remain in the

48、closed test chamber until the dust has settled. 4.1.8 Intermediate measurements The relevant specification may call for measurements during or at the end of conditioning while the specimen is still in the test chamber. If such measurements are required, the relevant specification shall define the me

49、asurements and the period or periods after which they shall be carried out. 4.1.9 Recovery Unless otherwise required by the relevant specification, the specimen shall remain under standard atmospheric conditions for recovery for 2 h. 4.1 .l O Cleaning The relevant specification may prescribe removal of external surface dust to be carried out prior to final measurements. 4.1.1 1 Final measurements After recovery the specimen shall be submitted to visual, dimensional and functional checks prescribed by the relevant specification. 4.1 .12 Information to b
