Hollow metallic waveguides - Part 4: Relevant specifications for circular waveguides

This part of IEC 60153 specifies straight hollow metallic tubing of circular cross section for use as waveguides in electronic equipment. The aim of this recommendation is to specify the hollow metallic waveguides: a) the details necessary to ensure compatibility and, as far as essential, interchangeability; b) test methods; c) uniform requirements for the electrical and mechanical properties. It should be noted that no recommendations are made for the materials to be used for waveguides. The choice of material is to be agreed upon by customer and manufacturer. This document should be read in conjunction with IEC 60153-1, which gives general requirements and test methods.

Guides d'ondes métalliques creux - Partie 4: Spécifications applicables aux guides d’ondes circulaires

lEC 60153-4:2022 spécifie des tubes métalliques creux rectilignes de section circulaire destinés à être utilisés comme guides d’ondes dans les matériels électroniques. Le présent document a pour but de spécifier les guides d’ondes métalliques creux en donnant: a) les détails nécessaires pour assurer la compatibilité et, dès lors que c’est essentiel, l’interchangeabilité; b) les méthodes d’essai; c) des exigences uniformes pour les propriétés électriques et mécaniques. Le présent document est destiné à être lu conjointement avec l’IEC 60153-1, qui fournit les exigences générales et les méthodes d’essai. Cette quatrième édition annule et remplace la troisième édition parue en 2017. Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l’édition précédente: a. modification du système de désignation des petits guides d’ondes circulaires (par exemple C 25.5k au lieu de C 25500); b. révision du Tableau 1: - correction de la désignation de deux guides d’ondes (désormais C 1.2k et C 12k); - correction du diamètre de trois guides d’ondes (C 140, C 1.4k et C 14k); - resserrement des tolérances sur les diamètres intérieurs des guides d’ondes de dimensions inférieures à celles du type C 890; - suppression des valeurs d’affaiblissement des guides d’ondes pour l’aluminium, l’or et le laiton; c. suppression du Tableau 2 (duplication) et remplacement par le tableau des guides d’ondes de tailles intermédiaires initialement prévu à cet emplacement; d. ajout d’une équation pour le calcul de l’affaiblissement des guides d’ondes quel que soit le matériau dont ils sont constitués.

HOLLOW METALLIC WAVEGUIDES –
Part 4: Relevant specifications for circular waveguides

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international
co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and
in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,
Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their
preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with
may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for
Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between
any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent
rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
IEC 60153-4 has been prepared by subcommittee 46F: RF and microwave passive components,
of IEC technical committee 46: Cables, wires, waveguides, RF connectors, RF and microwave
passive components and accessories. It is an International Standard.
This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition published in 2017. This edition
constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous
edition:
a) change of the designation scheme for small circular waveguides (e.g. C 25.5k instead of
C 25500);
b) revision of Table 1:
• correction of two waveguide designations (now C 1.2k, C 12k);
• correction of three waveguide diameters (C 140, C 1.4k, C 14k);
• tightening of inner diameter tolerances for waveguides smaller than C 890;
• deletion of waveguide attenuation values for aluminium, gold, and brass;

– 4 – IEC 60153-4:2022 © IEC 2022
c) deletion of Table 2 (duplication) and replacement with the table of intermediate waveguide
sizes originally envisaged here;
d) addition of an equation for calculating the attenuation of waveguides made of any material.
