2013-01-08 Thread itl-emc user group
Hi all, We purchased EN 50131-5-3: 2005 + A1: 2008 as we couldn't find the amendment separately Can anyone please point me in the direction of the amended parts of the standard. The only part that stands out is the added interpretation sheet. Thanks in advance Regards, David Shidlowsky |

Hi David, The changes in 2008 were to Annex E and F Annex E had a correction to the calculation for the Immunity to message substitution formula Annex F had a correction to the 1st diagram replacing the value in abscissa 10 s with 5 s. The interpretation sheet IS1 was issued separately

[PSES] LC measurement equipment for IEC 60601

2013-01-08 Thread INTI - Lucas D. Lago
I am looking for an equipment to measure leakage current for medical devices according to IEC 60601:05. I have difficulties to find one to measure leakage current for CF type patient connections with the accuracy of ± 5 % required by IEC 60601, or better (± 3,5 % as indicated in TR 62354).

[PSES] Ball drop test and Impact hammer test ... IEC60950-1 2005 and UL, CSA variation

2013-01-08 Thread sudhakar wasnik
Hi Guys,  Can the ball drop test be conducted using impact hammer ?   I do not see any credible reason for not using the impact hammer. Impact test using impact hammer delivers x amount of Joules energy  upon impact similar  to the dropping of steel ball of certain size from certain height.

Typically the spring loaded impact hammer is 0.5 Joules, the 50mm steel sphere is 5.0 Joules when doing the vertical or pendulum drop. Doug Douglas E Powell http://www.linkedin.com/in/dougp01 http://www.linkedin.com/in/dougp01 -Original Message- From: sudhakar wasnik

Hi Sudhakar, Yes, but how would you plan to keep that impact hammer in calibration. Note that the 50mm steel ball essentially maintains its calibration unless it is damaged. I look forward to your reply. Best regards, Ron Pickard From: emc-p...@ieee.org [mailto:emc-p...@ieee.org]

Yes you can, just make sure it meets IK08 requirements in mass, size and is calibrated. You can either purchase the IEC/EN 62262 reference document for impact testing or use this link for guidance, the data is accurate http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/EN_62262 All the best, Doug Douglas E
