Hi Guys,
Thank you for your input :-)
Yes - i understand that the issue is to prevent dripping melted plastics.
However as far as i read figure 7 drawing, there is no requirements on the
sides but only bottom is this true ?
The device has no openings at all in the bottom so projection of 5 degrees
>from possible meltable parts is no problem.
Below is my second try to draw enlarged part of the chassis corner, the outer
panel part is screwed onto the the side part.
Front of device --> | |
| | ___________________
| | |
| | <-2mm-> | <-- side part -->
| |_________|
|____________Bottom_____________
Hope this is clearer (corner is similar in all four corners of the bottom) ?
What i cannot figure out is do i have a potential problem having this 2mm slot
in the corners where material gathered in the bottom could drip from ?
Though i think the 2mm gap should be no larger than the suggested baffle
design mentioned in the standard.
Have a nice day all :-)
Best regards
Peter

I do not see an gap in your drawing ??
In general the hole problem, is related
to the risk of melted burning plastics leaking out.
Limiting the holes to 1mm wide and/or 5mm round (I believe)
prevents the leaking.

Hi experts,
A question about the IEC 61010-1 requirements to the bottom (and sides)
of a
device cases fire enclosure.
With regards to the bottom there are well explained rules for the
design of
the bottom in 9.2.1 Constructional Requirements.
I have a device with completely flat bottom without any holes, front
and back
is bended 90 degrees to make sides of front/back in the two other sides there
is a small bend up side panel of 22mm all this is formed out of same plate.
Now my question is related to the corners where the front/back panels
meet
the small side panels all bent upwards, here there is a small gap of 2mm
bewteen the materials. It´s not exactly the bottom but instead in the side so
do i have a problem or will it be OK ?
| |2mm
| | __________________________
| | |
front | | |
| |_|
|______Bottom of device________
I tried to make a drawing (best seen using non proportional font)
Hope this is somewhat clear, have a nice day :-)
Best regards
Peter
