What is BS EN IEC 60068-3-6 on Performance of temperature/ humidity chambers about?
BS EN IEC 60068-3-6 is an international standard that covers guidelines and supporting documentation for environmental testing.
BS EN IEC 60068-3-6 provides a uniform and reproducible method of confirming that temperature and humanity test chambers, without specimens, conform to the requirements specified in climatic test procedures of IEC 60068-2 (all parts).
BS EN IEC 60068-3-6 specifies terms, definitions, measuring chamber performances, temperature measurement methods, humidity measurement method, performance test reports, etc., for ensuring the performance of temperature chambers.
Note: BS EN IEC 60068-3-6 is intended for users when conducting regular chamber performance monitoring.
Who is BS EN IEC 60068-3-6 on Performance of temperature/ humidity chambers for?
BS EN IEC 60068-3-6 on performance of temperature/ humidity chambers is useful for:
- Chemical industries
- Testing laboratories
- Environmental testing industries
- Industrial equipment manufacturers
- Packaging industries
Why should you use BS EN IEC 60068-3-6 on Performance of temperature/ humidity chambers?
Environmental testing consists of the natural and artificial environments to which components or equipment are exposed. An assessment is done for the performance of components under certain conditions, transport, and storage to which they may be exposed in real-time.
BS EN IEC 60068-3-6 gives you a detailed test procedure that is useful to verify the performance of temperature/ humidity chambers. It provides you with a temperature and humidity measurement system and test specimens to analyze the performance of temperature/ humidity chambers under varying climatic conditions.
BS EN IEC 60068-3-6 contributes to the assessment of temperature/ humidity chambers as there are not many publications that attend this aspect of environmental testing. BS EN IEC 60068-3-6 bridges this gap and provides the method of maintaining and measuring temperature/ humidity, along with examining the physical characteristics of temperature/ humidity chambers as it has a great influence on test results.
What’s changed since the last update?
BS EN IEC 60068-3-6:2018 supersedes BS EN 60068-3-6:2002, which will be withdrawn. BS EN IEC 60068-3-6:2018 has been re-dated with the addition of clarification of confirmation procedures, with respect to the previous edition.
