(Main)Electrical relays - Tests and Measurements - Part 7-17: Shock, Acceleration and Vibration
Electrical relays - Tests and Measurements - Part 7-17: Shock, Acceleration and Vibration
IEC 63522-17:2024 is used for testing electromechanical elementary relays (electromechanical relays, reed relays, reed contacts, reed switches and technology combination of these) and for evaluating their ability to perform under expected conditions of transportation, storage and all aspects of operational use.
This document defines a standard test method to simulate the mechanical stress on relays as it can occur in service, during handling or during transportation. This document comprises test procedures to simulate shock impacts, steady acceleration environments (such as moving vehicles, aircraft and projectiles) as well as vibration conditions.
Elektrische Relais – Mess- und Prüfverfahren – Teil 17: Schock, Vibration und Beschleunigung
Relais électriques - Essais et mesurages - Partie 7-17: Chocs, accélération et vibrations
Le IEC 63522-17:2024 traite des essais des relais électromécaniques élémentaires (relais électromécaniques, relais à lames souples, contacts à lames souples et leur combinaisons technologiques) et permet d'évaluer leur aptitude à fonctionner dans des conditions prévues de transport, de stockage, et tous les aspects d'utilisation opérationnelle.
Le présent document définit une méthode d'essai normalisée qui vise à simuler les contraintes mécaniques exercées sur les relais qui peuvent se produire en service, pendant la manutention ou pendant le transport. Le présent document comprend des procédures d'essai qui visent à simuler des chocs, des accélérations constantes (dans des véhicules en mouvement, des avions et des projectiles, par exemple) ainsi que des vibrations.
Les essais sont généralement prévus pour être effectués avec des dispositifs soumis à l'essai (DUT, Devices Under Test) sans emballage. Toutefois, si l'emballage est considéré comme une partie essentielle du DUT, les essais définis peuvent également être effectués avec l'emballage.

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international
co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and
in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,
Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their
preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with
may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for
Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between
any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National
