Environmental testing - Part 3-4: Supporting documentation and guidance - Damp heat tests IEC 60068-3-4:2001 ED1

Publication date:   Aug 28, 2001

Scope

IEC 60068-3-4:2001 Provides the necessary information to assist in preparing relevant specifications, such as standards for components or equipment, in order to select appropriate tests and test severities for specific products and, in some cases, specific types of application. The object of damp heat tests is to determine the ability of products to withstand the stresses occurring in a high relative humidity environment, with or without condensation, and with special regard to variations of electrical and mechanical characteristics. Damp heat tests may also be utilized to check the resistance of a specimen to some forms of corrosion attack.
