L'IEC 60938-2:2021 s'applique à des inductances fixes conçues pour s’opposer aux perturbations électromagnétiques, qui sont connectées à un réseau d’alimentation à courant alternatif ou à une autre source d’alimentation dont la tension nominale ne dépasse pas 1 000 V (valeur eff.) en courant alternatif ou 1 500 V en courant continu avec une fréquence nominale qui ne dépasse pas 400 Hz.
La présente spécification intermédiaire se limite à des inductances fixes pour lesquelles des essais de sécurité sont souhaitables. Cela signifie que les inductances décrites conformément à la présente spécification sont, soit reliées à l'alimentation secteur, lorsque la conformité aux essais obligatoires de l’Annexe A est nécessaire, soit utilisées en d'autres positions du circuit pour lesquelles la spécification applicable à l'équipement indique que certains ou l'ensemble de ces essais de sécurité sont exigés.
Le présent document a pour objet de prescrire des exigences normalisées d'essais de sécurité ainsi que des valeurs assignées et caractéristiques préférentielles, qui permettent de choisir à partir de l’IEC 60938-1 les méthodes d'essai appropriées et de fournir des exigences générales de performance applicables aux inductances d'antiparasitage.
Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'édition précédente.
- le programme d’essai pour les essais de performance a été supprimé; les essais de sécurité obligatoires et les essais de performance facultatifs sont énumérés dans un seul programme d’essai à l’Annexe B;
- les exigences relatives aux bobines d’arrêt à thyristor ont été supprimées;
- les exigences relatives aux matériaux sont alignées sur les normes IEC 60939-3 et UL 60939-3;
- les bobines d’arrêt à courant alternatif d’une tension jusqu’à 1 000 V et les bobines d’arrêt à courant continu d’une tension jusqu’à 1 500 V sont désormais incluses dans le Domaine d’application.

IS0 11961 :1996(E) @ IS0 Foreword IS0 (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide fed- eration of national standards bodies (IS0 member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through IS0 technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non- governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. IS0 collabo- rates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are cir- culated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. International Standard IS0 11961 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 67, Materials and equipment for petroleum and natural gas indus- tries, Subcommittee SC 5, Casing and tubing. Annexes A to C form an integral part of this International Standard. SIST EN ISO 11961:2000
0 IS0 IS0 11961: 1996(E) Introduction This International Standard, based on API Spec 5D:1992, Specification for drill pipe, includes requirements of various nature. These are identified by the use of certain words or phrases. Shall is used to indicate that a provision is mandatory. - Should is used to indicate that a provision is not mandatory, but rec- ommended as good practice. - May is used to indicate that a provision is optional. In addition, in certain cases, this International Standard offers Alternative requirements. These offer different options, either: - At purchaser’s discretion in which case such option shall be men- tioned on the purchase order. These cases are recognized by the use of the words or phrases such as alternative or at purchaser’s dis- cretion. - At manufacturer’s discretion in which case such option shall be no- tified to the purchaser. Such cases are identified by the use of the phrase at manufacturer’s discretion. - By agreement between purchaser and manufacturer. Such cases are recognized by the use of the phrase by agreement between in- terested parties. This International Standard, when this phrase is used, intends to either waive the application of a requirement (either mandatory or rec- ommended) and leave it to both purchaser and manufacturer to use the requirement or not; or offer one (or several) alternative requirement(s), the is left to b 0th purchas er and manufacturer. selection of which SIST EN ISO 11961:2000

When the depth of grind exceeds IO % of the specified wall thickness, the remaining wall thickness shall be verified in accordance with 8.4.2; b) the section of pipe containing the defect may be cut off within the limits of requirements of the length; C) the pipe may be rejected. NOTES 3 When wall thickness is reduced by the purchaser or third party inspector and the remaining wall thickness is less than 87,5 % of the specified wall thickness, grinding of the defect should be conducted in such a way that the linear imperfection remains detectable in the area of reduced wall thickness by visual, magnetic particle or dye penetrate in- spections. Repair welding is not permitted. be verified 4 Linear imperfections include, but are not limited to, seams, laps, cracks, plug scores, cuts and gouges. - using a straight edge or taut string (wire) from one end of the pipe to the other end of the pipe; 8.5.2 Surface inspection of upsets - using a minimum I,83 m straight edge shouldered on the pipe surface beyond the extent of the hooked extremity. The upset portion of drill pipe shall be visually exam- ined for imperfections. The minimum wall thickness in 14 SIST EN ISO 11961:2000
@ IS0 the internal and external upset intervals shall be not less than 875 % of the specified pipe body wall thick- ness. The maximum permissible depth of imperfec- tions measured from the surface shall be as follows. 852.1 External surface From the end of the pipe to a plane at a distance equal to the specified minimum dimension L,, (see figures 3 and 4, and tables 4 and 5) from the end of the pipe as indicated by the requirement for maintaining dimen- sion D,,. From the plane as specified above to the upset runout: 12,5 % of the specified pipe body wall thickness. 852.2 Internal surface From the end of the pipe to a plane at a distance equal to the specified minimum dimension Li” (see figures 3 and 4) from the end of the pipe as indicated by the re- quirement for maintaining dimension D,,. From the plane as specified above to the upset runout: 125 % of the specified pipe body wall thickness. NOTES 5 The maximum combined effect of coincident internal and external imperfections in the area is limited by the wall thickness specified in 8.4.2. 6 The internal upset configuration on all upset products should exhibit no sharp corners or drastic changes of sec- tions, and permit a 90 degree hook type tool to be pulled through without hangup. 8.6 Non-destructive inspection 8.6.1 General In addition to visual inspection all pipe shall be in- spected full length for longitudinal defects by either magnetic particle inspection or by ultrasonic or elec- tromagnetic methods, and on the ends of upset pipe for transverse defects by the magnetic particle method. The location of the equipment in the mill shall be at the discretion of the manufacturer; however, the non-destructive inspection shall take place after final heat treatment and any subsequent rotary straighten- ing operation. 8.6.2 Magnetic particle inspection When magnetic particle inspection is employed to inspect for longitudinal defects, the entire outside surface and the inside surface for a distance of 152,4 mm shall be inspected. The outside and inside surfaces of the ends of upset pipe shall be inspected for transverse defects by the magnetic particle method. Magnetic particle inspection of drill pipe may be employed on the inside surface after heat treating and before the ends are cropped. If defects are found, further cropping is permissible provided the inside surface is again inspected by the magnetic particle in- sp
