[PSES] IEC/EN 61010-1, Ed.3 and non-detachable power cords

2012-02-15 Thread IUnwin
Dear Group,

Consider a product that is intended
to be connected to mains power via a non- detachable power cord that is
fed into the equipment through a cable gland (compression bushing) fitted
to the equipment enclosure. Neither the power cord or the cable gland are
supplied by the manufacturer and the specific parts to be used are the
responsibility of the installer, taking into account the general safety
requirements included in the equipment manual, the local safety regulations
covering the installation and availability of parts.

Given that no power cable or cable gland
is shipped with the product, for the equipment to be approved under IEC/EN
61010-1 Ed.3 are the requirements of Clause 6.10.2.2 Cord anchorage applicable?

Many thanks in anticipation of your
responses.

Re: [PSES] RoHS - an EU view

2012-02-09 Thread IUnwin
Group,

Given that the adhesive is unlikely
to contain lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, the question is:
Does it contain either Polybrominated biphenyls (PBB), or Polybrominated
diphenyl ethers (PBDE) at concentrations greater than 0.1% by weight of
the homogeneous material? I understand that both are flame retardants and
used in plastics. Further the need for mandatory EU RoHS (2002/95/EC) compliance
only kicks in when the adhesive is used in certain types of electrical
or electronic equipment.

Another issue to be considered as far
as the EU and adhesives is associated with the impact of the REACH Regulations
(1907/2006 (as amended)). Amongst other things, these regulations include
lists of substances whose use in products and their manufacture is either
restricted, or requires relevant information to be supplied to end users.
REACH includes many more substances than the six in RoHS, and the restrictions/requirements
are not limited to electrical and electronic equipment.

Ian Unwin

 Re: [PSES] RoHS




Even if you tested the adhesive,
since you do not have manufacturing control and the manufacturer is unable
or unwilling to declare their adhesive RoHS compliant, you will not know
if the adhesive will remain RoHS compliant. The manufacturer could change
their adhesive without your knowledge. You would have to do lot sample
testing of your production.

Garry,

When I did a similar test some time ago, also with helium, I used a non-

of air that had re-entered the battery enclosure rather than the helium
left. The setup worked well if I remember correctly.

Testing for dry joints

2002-10-09 Thread IUnwin

Dear Chris,

If I remember correctly from my days in Britain's National Coal Board,
thermal imagers and other temperature sensors were used to check cable
joints underground. Poor connections had a higher resistance, and were thus
hotter, than their neighbours. I don't know whether such a test methodology
is feasible in your case.
