Overview

SIST EN 60512-11-9:2003 is a European standard developed by CLC that defines a precise test method for evaluating the performance of electronic connectors under dry heat conditions. This standard, aligned with IEC 60512-11-9:2002, focuses on assessing the ability of connectors and similar electromechanical components to function correctly and maintain their integrity when subjected to specified dry heat environments. It is an essential standard in the field of connector testing, ensuring reliability and durability of connectors used in electronic equipment.

Key Topics

  • Scope and Objective
    The standard specifies a test method to assess if connectors can be stored or operated effectively under dry heat. It applies primarily to electromechanical connectors used in electronic devices and can be mandated by detailed component specifications.

  • Preparation and Setup
    Components must be prepared with all normal accessories and preconditioned according to detail specifications. This includes mounting, wiring, and possibly mating/unmating connectors prior to testing.

  • Test Methodology
    The test involves conditioning specimens according to IEC 60068-2-2, employing either:

    • Test Ba: Sudden temperature change dry heat test for non-heat dissipating specimens without intermediate measurements.
    • Test Bb: Gradual temperature change dry heat test if measurements during the test are required.
  • Measurements and Evaluation
    Initial, during-test (if required), and final measurements are conducted to evaluate:

    • Contact resistance (millivolt level method as per IEC 60512-2-1)
    • Visual condition (IEC 60512-1-1)
    • Insertion and withdrawal forces (IEC 60512-7)
    • Static load and insert retention (IEC 60512-5 and IEC 60512-8)
    • Waterproof immersion tests (IEC 60512-7)

    The specimen must meet performance requirements specified in the detail specification throughout these steps.

  • Specification Details
    Detail specifications must define mounting, wiring, conditioning severity (temperature, duration), measurement requirements, and any deviations from the standard methodology.

Applications

SIST EN 60512-11-9:2003 is critical for manufacturers, quality assurance engineers, and product developers involved in the design, testing, and certification of connectors for electronic equipment. Its application ensures that connectors can withstand high-temperature storage and operational conditions without degradation, which is vital in many industries including:

  • Consumer Electronics - guarantees connector reliability in devices exposed to high temperature.
  • Automotive Electronics - evaluates connector endurance against dry heat in engine compartments or harsh climates.
  • Telecommunications - ensures stable connector function in elevated temperature environments.
  • Industrial Equipment - certifies connectors for use in machinery exposed to extreme heat.
  • Aerospace and Defense - verifies connector reliability under rigorous thermal conditions.

Using this standard helps ensure compliance with international testing norms, reducing failure risks due to thermal stress and enhancing product durability and customer satisfaction.

Related Standards

To fully implement testing protocols for electronic connectors, SIST EN 60512-11-9:2003 references and complements several key international standards, including:

  • IEC 60068-2-2: Environmental testing - Test B: Dry heat, forms the foundational conditioning test method for dry heat exposure.
  • IEC 60512-1-1: General examination and visual inspection tests for connectors.
  • IEC 60512-2-1: Electrical continuity and contact resistance measurements using the millivolt level method.
  • IEC 60512-5: Static load tests to evaluate mechanical durability of connectors.
  • IEC 60512-7: Mechanical operating tests and sealing tests assessing mechanical and waterproof integrity.
  • IEC 60512-8: Connector mechanical tests relating to insert retention and axial load resistance.

By applying EN 60512-11-9 in conjunction with these related standards, test professionals can conduct comprehensive assessments of connector performance under climatic stress, especially dry heat, assuring compliance with international quality and safety benchmarks.
