EN IEC 60268-3:2018

Sound system equipment - Part 3: Amplifiers

NEW!IEC 60268-3:2018 is available as IEC 60268-3:2018 RLV which contains the International Standard and its Redline version, showing all changes of the technical content compared to the previous edition. IEC 60268-3:2018 applies to analogue amplifiers, and the analogue parts of analogue/digital amplifiers, which form part of a sound system for professional or household applications. It specifies the characteristics that should be included in specifications of amplifiers and the corresponding methods of measurement. This part of IEC 60268 shall be used in conjunction with IEC 60268-1:1985 and IEC 60268 2:1987. This fifth edition cancels and replaces the fourth edition published in 2013. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: a) rated condition of digital input is newly specified; b) tolerance of rated power supply is changed; c) maximum effective output power is appended to output characteristics list; d) "Terms, definitions and rated values" clause is complemented.

Elektroakustične naprave - 3. del: Ojačevalniki

Ta del standarda IEC 60268 se uporablja za analogne ojačevalnike in analogne dele analognih/digitalnih ojačevalnikov, ki so del zvočnega sistema za profesionalno ali domačo uporabo. Določa značilnosti, ki naj bi bile vključene v specifikacijah ojačevalnikov, in ustrezne metode merjenja.
OPOMBA: Metode merjenja za digitalne ojačevalnike in podobno opremo so podane v standardu IEC 61606 [1]-1.
V splošnem so podane metode merjenja tiste metode, ki so najbolj neposredno povezane z značilnostmi. To ne izključuje uporabe drugih metod, ki dajejo enakovredne rezultate.
Metode na splošno temeljijo na najpreprostejši merilni opremi, ki lahko zagotovi uporabne rezultate. To ne izključuje uporabe bolj zapletene opreme, ki lahko zagotavlja večjo natančnost in/ali omogoča samodejno merjenje in zapisovanje rezultatov.
Določeni so nazivni pogoji in standardni pogoji merjenja, ki zagotavljajo zanesljivo ponovitev merjenja.
