Reliability testing - Compliance tests for constant failure rate and constant failure intensity

This International Standard gives a number of optimized test plans, the corresponding border lines and characteristics. In addition the algorithms for designing test plans using a spreadsheet program are also given, together with guidance on how to choose test plans. This standard specifies procedures to test whether an observed value of - failure rate, - failure intensity, - mean operating time to failure (MTTF), - mean operating time between failures (MTBF), conforms to a given requirement. It is assumed, except where otherwise stated, that during the accumulated test time, the times to failure or the operating times between failures are independent and identically exponentially distributed. This assumption implies that the failure rate or failure intensity is assumed to be constant. Four types of test plans are described as follows: - truncated sequential probability ratio test (SPRT); - fixed time/failure terminated test (FTFT); - fixed calendar time terminated test without replacement; - combined test. This standard does not cover guidance on how to plan, perform, analyse and report a test. This information can be found in IEC 60300-3-5. This standard does not describe test conditions. This information can be found in IEC 60605-2 and in IEC 60300-3-5.

Prüfungen der Funktionsfähigkeit - Prüfpläne für konstante Ausfallrate und konstante Ausfalldichte

Essais de fiabilité - Plans d'essai de conformité pour un taux de défaillance constant et une intensité de défaillance constante

L'IEC 61124:2023 spécifie un certain nombre de plans d’essai optimisés, ainsi que les limites et caractéristiques correspondantes. De plus, les algorithmes pour concevoir des plans d’essai à l’aide d’une feuille de calcul sont également fournis, avec des recommandations relatives au choix de ces plans. Le présent document spécifie les procédures utilisées pour vérifier qu’une valeur observée:  
d’un taux de défaillance;
d’une intensité de défaillance;
d’un temps moyen de fonctionnement avant défaillance (MTTF);
d’un temps moyen de fonctionnement entre défaillances (MTBF).  est conforme à une exigence donnée. Il est présumé, sauf spécification contraire, que pendant le temps d’essai cumulé, les temps de fonctionnement avant défaillance ou les temps de fonctionnement entre défaillances sont indépendants et suivent une distribution identique et exponentielle. Cette hypothèse implique que le taux de défaillance ou l’intensité de défaillance est présumé constant.

Preskušanje zanesljivosti - Ustreznostni preskusi za konstantno pogostost odpovedi in konstantno intenzivnost odpovedi (IEC 61124:2023)

Ta mednarodni standard navaja optimizirane preskusne načrte, ustrezne meje in lastnosti. Poleg tega navaja algoritme za projektiranje preskusnih načrtov s programom s preglednicami in smernice za izbiro preskusnih načrtov.
Ta standard določa splošne postopke preskusa, ali je ugotovljena vrednost
– pogostosti odpovedi,
– intenzivnosti odpovedi,
– povprečnega časa delovanja do odpovedi (MTTF),
– povprečnega časa delovanja med odpovedmi (MTBF),
skladna z navedeno zahtevo.
Če ni navedeno drugače, se predpostavlja, da so trajanja odpovedi ali povprečna trajanja delovanja med odpovedmi med skupnim trajanjem preskusov ločena in enakomerno eksponentno razporejena. Ta predpostavka pomeni, da je pogostost odpovedi ali intenzivnost odpovedi konstantna.
Opisane so štiri vrste preskusnih načrtov:
– skrajšan sekvenčni preskus razmerja verjetnosti (SPRT);
– časovno/z odpovedjo zaključeni preskus (FTFT);
– koledarsko zaključeni preskus brez zamenjave;
– kombinirani preskus.
Ta standard ne zajema smernic za načrtovanje, izvajanje in analizo preskusa ter poročanje o njem. Te informacije so navedene v standardu IEC 60300-3-5.
Ta standard ne opisuje preskusnih pogojev. Te informacije so navedene v standardu IEC 60605-2 in standardu IEC 60300-3-5.
