What is PD IEC/TR 62131-5 - Vibration and shock of electrotechnical equipment about?
PD IEC/TR 62131-5 is a standard that covers vibration and shock of electrotechnical equipment, ensuring the equipment’s integrity based on the data source and quality.
PD IEC/TR 62131-5 reviews the available dynamic data relating to the handling of electrotechnical equipment. From all the available data an environmental description will be generated and compared to that set out in the IEC 60721 series.
In PD IEC/TR 62131-5, for each of the sources identified, the quality of the data is reviewed and checked for self-consistency. The process used to undertake this check of data quality and that used to intrinsically categorize the various data sources that are set out in IEC TR 62131-1.
PD IEC/TR 62131-5 primarily addresses data extracted from a number of different sources for which reasonable confidence exists in its quality and validity.
PD IEC/TR 62131-5 report also reviews some data for which the quality and validity cannot realistically be verified. These data are included to facilitate the validation of information from other sources. The report clearly indicates when utilising information in this latter category.
PD IEC/TR 62131-5 addresses data from a number of data gathering exercises. The quantity and quality of data in these exercises vary considerably as does the range of conditions encompassed.
Who is PD IEC/TR 62131-5 - Vibration and shock of electrotechnical equipment for?
PD IEC/TR 62131-5 on vibration and shock of electrotechnical equipment applies to:
- Environmental testing agencies
- Quality assurance services
- Testing personnel and inspectors
Why should you use PD IEC/TR 62131-5 - Vibration and shock of electrotechnical equipment?
Equipment is subjected to various vibrations and shocks during its transportation and storage. A proper dataset relating to this impact assists in ensuring the development and design of equipment that can absorb vibrations and shocks.
PD IEC/TR 62131-5 provides users guidance on data source and quality, including container handling measurements, intermodal container handling, handling at air cargo pallet, forklift handling, and movement of unsuspended trolleys, enabling the identification and collection of data from different sources.
PD IEC/TR 62131-5 provides users guidance on data source and quality, intra data source comparison, environmental description, and recommendations, enabling users to review data for different sources and check for consistency.
With obedience and compliance to PD IEC/TR 62131-5, users can identify sources of vibration and shock for electrotechnical equipment, ensuring the collection of data for extensive analysis and testing of the equipment.
