IEC 62317-2:2010

Ferrite cores - Dimensions - Part 2: Pot-cores for use in telecommunications, power supply, and filter applications

IEC 62317-2:2010 specifies the dimensions that are of importance for mechanical interchangeability for a preferred range of pot-cores made of ferrite, and the dimensional limits for coil formers to be used with them. The selection of core sizes for this standard is based on the philosophy of including those sizes which are industrial standards, either by inclusion in a national standard, or by broad-based use in industry. See IEC 62317-1 for more detail concerning the philosophy of selecting core sizes to be included. This first edition cancels and replaces the fourth edition of IEC 60133 published in 2000. The main changes with respect to the previous edition of IEC 60133 are listed below:
- changed "e dimension" of P4,6/3,1 in Table 6 from 3,20 Max. to 3,40 Max.;
- removed "derived standards" from Annex B (informative) in the fourth edition of IEC 60133;
- changed the name of core parts in Subclause 3.1.2 from "Grooves" to "Wire-ways" in accordance with IEC 62317-1 Subclause 5.6.

Noyaux ferrites - Dimensions - Partie 2: Circuits magnétiques en pots utilisés dans des applications de télécommunications, d'alimentation électrique et de filtre

La CEI 62317-2:2010 spécifie les dimensions qui présentent une importance pour l'interchangeabilité mécanique d'une gamme préférentielle de circuits magnétiques en pots réalisés en oxydes magnétiques, ainsi que les limites dimensionnelles pour des carcasses à utiliser avec ces pots. Le choix des tailles des noyaux pour la présente norme est fondé sur la philosophie consistant à introduire les tailles qui correspondent à des normes industrielles, soit par une prise en compte dans une norme nationale, soit par le biais d'une utilisation à grande échelle dans l'industrie. Voir la CEI 62317-1 pour plus de détails concernant ce principe de choix des tailles de noyaux à inclure. La présente édition annule et remplace la quatrième édition de la CEI 60133 publiée en 2000. Les principales modifications par rapport à la précédente édition de la CEI 60133 sont énumérées ci-dessous:
- au Tableau 6, changer la dimension "e" du P4,6/3,1 de 3,20 Max. à 3,40 Max.;
- enlever l'Annexe B (informative) "Normes dérivées" dans l'édition quatre de la CEI 60133;
- dans la Paragraphe 3.1.2 du texte anglais, changer "Grooves" en "Wire-ways" conformément à la Paragraphe 5.6 de la CEI 62317-1.

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 62317-2 has been prepared by technical committee 51: Magnetic
components and ferrite materials.
According to IEC 62317-1 clause 3-b) and Table A.1 in Annex A, the publication number of
IEC 60133 should be updated to IEC 62317-2 at the time of new revision of this standard.
This first edition cancels and replaces the fourth edition of IEC 60133 published in 2000.
This International Standard constitutes a technical revision of IEC 60133.
The main changes with respect to the previous edition of IEC 60133 are listed below:
– changed “e dimension” of P4,6/3,1 in Table 6 from 3,20 Max. to 3,40 Max.;
– removed “derived standards” from Annex B (informative) in the fourth edition of IEC 60133;

– 4 – 62317-2 © IEC:2010
– changed the name of core parts in Subclause 3.1.2 from “Grooves” to “Wire-ways” in

accordance with IEC 62317-1 Subclause 5.6.

The text of this standard is based on the following documents:

FDIS Report on voting
51/980/FDIS 51/982/RVD
Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on

voting indicated in the above table.

This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
A list of all parts of the IEC 62317 series, under the general title Ferrite cores–Dimensions,
can be found on the IEC website.
The committee has decided that the contents of this publication will remain unchanged until
the stability date indicated on the IEC web site under "http://webstore.iec.ch" in the data
related to the specific publication. At this date, the publication will be
• reconfirmed,
• withdrawn,
• replaced by a revised edition, or
• amended.
