Non-destructive testing - Leak testing - Criteria for method and technique selection
Scope:
This document specifies criteria for the selection of the most suitable method and technique for the assessment of leak tightness by indication or measurement of a gas leakage. Annex A, normative, allows a comparison of standard test methods. Leak detection using hydrostatic tests, electromagnetic methods is not included in this document.
This document is applicable to equipment which can be evacuated or pressurized.

Plastics — Conducting materials — Eddy current measurement on spread carbon fibre tow
Scope:
This test method defines test terms and specifies a standard method for evaluating the homogeneity of electrically conductive spread carbon fibre tow using eddy current measurement. The impedance in the width direction of the fibre is measured continuously, and the standard deviation of the measured impedance determines the homogeneity of the conductive material in fibre form.

Environmental testing - Part 2-64: Tests - Test Fh: Vibration, broadband random and guidance
Scope:
IEC 60068-2-64:2026 demonstrates the adequacy of a specimen to resist dynamic loads without unacceptable degradation of its functional and structural integrity (or either of them) when subjected to the specified random vibration test requirements. Broadband random vibration can be used to identify accumulated stress effects and the resulting mechanical weakness and degradation in the specified performance. This information, in conjunction with the relevant specification, can be used to assess the acceptability of specimens. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition, published in 2008, and Amendment 1:2019. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) update of Annex A with references to examples;
b) introduction of an organizational deviation treatment;
c) clarification on requirements.

Classification of environmental conditions - Part 3-3: Classification of groups of environmental parameters and their severities - Stationary use at weatherprotected locations (IEC 60721-3-3:2019 + IEC 60721-3-3:2019/AMD1:2026)
Scope:
This part of IEC 60721 classifies groups of environmental parameters and their severities to which products are subjected when installed for stationary use at weatherprotected locations.
The environmental conditions specified in this document are limited to those which can directly affect the performance of products. Only environmental conditions as such are considered. No special description of the effects of these conditions on the products is provided.
Environmental conditions directly related to explosion hazards, microclimate within a product, fire extinction and ionizing radiation are excluded. Any other unforeseen incidents are also excluded. The possibility of their occurrence can be considered as special cases. This document does not cover equipment covered by building standards, codes or regulations.
Conditions of stationary use at non-weatherprotected locations, portable and non-stationary use, use in vehicles and ships, conditions of storage and transportation, and microclimates inside products are given in other parts of the IEC 60721-3 series.
A limited number of classes of environmental conditions is given, covering a broad field of applications.

Environmental testing - Part 2-64: Tests - Test Fh: Vibration, broadband random and guidance
Scope:
IEC 60068-2-64:2008 demonstrates the adequacy of specimens to resist dynamic loads without unacceptable degradation of its functional and/or structural integrity when subjected to the specified random vibration test requirements. Broadband random vibration may be used to identify accumulated stress effects and the resulting mechanical weakness and degradation in the specified performance. This information, in conjunction with the relevant specification, may be used to assess the acceptability of specimens. This standard is applicable to specimens which may be subjected to vibration of a stochastic nature resulting from transportation or operational environments, for example in aircraft, space vehicles and land vehicles. It is primarily intended for unpackaged specimens, and for items in their transportation container when the latter may be considered as part of the specimen itself. However, if the item is packaged, then the item itself is referred to as a product and the item and its packaging together are referred to as a test specimen. This standard may be used in conjunction with IEC 60068-2-47:2005, for testing packaged products. If the specimens are subjected to vibration of a combination of random and deterministic nature resulting from transportation or real life environments, for example in aircraft, space vehicles and for items in their transportation container, testing with pure random may not be sufficient. See IEC 60068-3-8:2003 for estimating the dynamic vibration environment of the specimen and based on that, selecting the appropriate test method. The major changes with regard to the previous edition concern the removal of Method 1 and Method 2, replaced by a single method, and replacement of Annex A with suggested test spectra and removal of Annex C. Also included in this revision is the testing of soft packed specimens. Has the status of a basic safety publication in accordance with IEC Guide 104.
