(Main)Fixed capacitors for use in electronic equipment - Part 17: Sectional specification - Fixed metallized polypropylene film dielectric AC and pulse capacitors
Fixed capacitors for use in electronic equipment - Part 17: Sectional specification - Fixed metallized polypropylene film dielectric AC and pulse capacitors
IEC 60384-17:2019 applies to fixed capacitors with metallized electrodes and polypropylene dielectric for use in electronic equipment. Capacitors that have mixed film and metallized electrodes are also within the scope of this standard. These capacitors may have "self-healing" properties depending on conditions of use. Capacitors covered by this specification are mainly intended for use with alternating voltage and/or for pulse applications. The maximum reactive power applicable is 10 000 var and the maximum peak voltage is 3 000 V. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) all parts of the document have been revised based on the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2:2016 (seventh edition) and harmonization between other similar kinds of documents;
b) tables and Clause 4 have been revised so as to prevent duplications and contradictions;
c) new damp heat steady-state robustness classes with test conditions have been added in text, in Clause 4 and in Annex A.
The contents of the corrigendum of December 2020 have been included in this copy.
Condensateurs fixes utilisés dans les équipements électroniques - Partie 17: Spécification intermédiaire: Condensateurs fixes pour tension alternative et pour impulsions à diélectrique en film de polypropylène métallisé
L'IEC 60384-17:2019 s'applique aux condensateurs fixes à électrodes métallisées et à diélectrique en polypropylène destinés aux équipements électroniques. Les condensateurs équipés à la fois d'électrodes métallisées et d'électrodes en film sont également couverts par la présente norme. Ces condensateurs peuvent avoir des propriétés "d'autorégénération" en fonction des conditions d'utilisation. Les condensateurs couverts par la présente spécification sont principalement destinés à être utilisés dans des applications à impulsions et/ou à tension alternative. La puissance réactive maximale est 10 000 var et la tension de crête maximale est 3 000 V. Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'édition précédente:
a) toutes les parties du document ont été révisées sur la base des Directives ISO/IEC, Partie 2:2016 (septième édition) et harmonisées avec les autres types de documents similaires;
b) les tableaux et l'Article 4 ont été révisés afin d'éliminer les doublons et les contradictions;
c) de nouvelles classes de résistance à la chaleur humide continue (avec les conditions d'essai associées) ont été ajoutées à l'Article 4 et à l'Annexe A.
Le contenu du corrigendum de décembre 2020 a été pris en considération dans cet exemplaire.
