(Main)Magnetic materials - Part 7: Method of measurement of the coercivity (up to 160 kA/m) of magnetic materials in an open magnetic circuit
Magnetic materials - Part 7: Method of measurement of the coercivity (up to 160 kA/m) of magnetic materials in an open magnetic circuit
This part of IEC 60404 specifies a method of measurement of the coercivity of magnetic materials in an open magnetic circuit. This document is applicable to all magnetic materials with coercivities from 0,2 A/m to 160 kA/m. NOTE Examples of magnetic materials covered by this document are amorphous alloys, nanocrystalline alloys, all softmagnetic crystalline materials (e.g. Fe, FeSi-, CoFe- and FeNi-alloys), soft ferrites, hard metals, semi-hard magnetic alloys (e.g. FeCoTiAl-, FeCoV-, FeCrCo- and AlNiCo-alloys) [1]1. Special precautions are to be taken in measuring coercivities below 40 A/m, in materials with high conductivity and in test specimens which have a shape different from ellipsoids (see Annex A).

Matériaux magnétiques - Partie 7: Méthode de mesure de la coercitivité (jusqu'à 160 kA/m) des matériaux magnétiques en circuit magnétique ouvert
La présente partie de l'IEC 60404 spécifie une méthode de mesure de la coercitivité des matériaux magnétiques en circuit magnétique ouvert. Le présent document est applicable à l'ensemble des matériaux magnétiques dont les valeurs de coercitivité sont comprises entre 0,2 A/m et 160 kA/m. NOTE Les alliages amorphes, les alliages nanocristallins, tous les matériaux magnétiques doux cristallins (par exemple, les alliages Fe, FeSi, CoFe et FeNi), les ferrites doux, les métaux durs, les alliages magnétiques mi-durs (par exemple, les alliages FeCoTiAl, FeCoV, FeCrCo et AlNiCo) sont des exemples de matériaux magnétiques couverts par le présent document [1]1. Des précautions particulières sont à prendre lors du mesurage des valeurs de coercitivité audessous de 40 A/m dans des matériaux qui présentent une conductivité élevée et dans des éprouvettes qui ont une forme différente des ellipsoïdes (voir Annexe A).

magnetic materials in an open magnetic circuit
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.
International Standard IEC 60404-9 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 68:
Magnetic alloys and steels.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first published in 1982. This edition constitutes
a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous
edition:
a) Clause 1: The scope includes a more detailed description of the magnetic materials which
applies to this standard;
b) Clause 4: Figure 2 – circuit diagram for methods A and B was simplified and the fluxgate
probes inside the solenoid have been added;
c) Clause 7: Compensation for the earth’s magnetic field and for static and dynamic
magnetic noise fields has been added;
– 4 – IEC 60404-7:2019 © IEC 2019
d) Clause 8: Magnetic shielding of the measuring region has been added;
e) 9.2.2: The measuring methods for local and integral measurement of the flux in the test
specimen have been separated and the limitations in size and shape of the test specimen
have been considered.
f) 9:3: The method C with a VSM (Vibrating Sample Magnetometer) has been moved from
9.3 to the Annex B.
g) The term "complex shaped test specimen" has been replaced in several clauses by "test
specimen different from ellipsoids".
h) The character of Annex A has been changed from “informative” to “normative”.
The text of this International Standard is based on the following documents:
