Annex A
(informative)
Mounting for surface mount fuse-links

Replace the text of Annex A by the following new text:
The test fuse-links may be submitted to the test house already soldered to the test boards.
However, some tests require fuses to be loose, e.g. “solderability” and “resistance to
soldering heat” tests, while through-hole type “bend testing” has to be carried out before
soldering. While it is considered acceptable for the test house to be able to solder the
through-hole types to the test board for subsequent measurement of voltage drop, there is a
difficulty with soldering SMD fuse-links that have been subjected to resistance to soldering
heat onto a test board so that the voltage drop can be tested.
Some of the following is taken from IEC 60068-2-58 using “Group 3 Medium High
Temperature Solder paste”.
a) Choice of solder paste
1) The alloy composition to be used shall consist of 3,0 wt % Ag (silver), 0,5 wt % Cu
(copper) and the remainder of Sn (tin); Sn96,5Ag3,0Cu0,5 is preferred. The solder
alloys shall consist of 3,0 wt % to 4,0 wt % Ag, 0,5 wt % to 1,0 wt % Cu, and the
remainder of Sn may be used instead of Sn96,5Ag3,0Cu0,5.
– Solder powder
The powder size shall be symbol 3, specified in Table 2 of 6.3.2 of IEC 61190-1-2.
The shape of the solder powder shall be spherical.
– Flux composition
The flux to be used shall consist of 30 wt % polymerization rosin (softening point
approximately 95 °C), 30 wt % dibasic acid degeneration rosin (softening point
approximately 140 °C), 34,7 wt % diethylene glycol monobutyl ether, 0,8 wt % 1,3-
diphenylguanidine- HBr, 0,5 wt % adipic acid (chlorine content less than 0,1 %) and
4 wt % stiffening castor oil.
– Solder paste composition
The solder paste to be used shall consist of 88 wt % solder powder and 12 wt %
flux. The viscosity range shall be (180 ± 50) Pa·s.
2) The footprints shall be covered with a solder deposit. The thickness of the solder
deposit shall be between 100 µm and 250 µm; the thickness shall be specified in the
relevant specification.
b) Preparation of the specimen

– 6 – 60127-4 Amend. 1  IEC:2008
1) The specimen surface to be tested shall be in the "as received" condition and shall not
be touched by fingers or otherwise contaminated.
2) The specimen shall not be cleaned prior to test. If required by the relevant
specification, the specimen may be immersed in an organic solvent at room
temperature for preconditioning.
3) Preconditioning
Specimens, which need preconditioning, shall be pre-treated in accordance with the
relevant specification.
c) Positioning of the specimen
The specimen shall be placed symmetrically on its footprint.
d) Soldering
1) As long as the soldering conditions do not lead to a thermal load, which exceeds the
SMD specification, any kind of reflow oven or vapour phase soldering oven may be
used.
2) The parameters for reflow temperature are detailed in Figure A.1.

3) The reflow temperature specified is mentioned for wetting test condition of solder
reflow method. Care should be taken that the typical soldering process temperature is
o o
235 C to 250 C as mentioned in Table 1 of IEC 60068-2-58.
4) Care shall be taken that complete wetting is achieved.
5) The soldered area of the substrate shall be cleaned using 2-propanol (iso-propanol) or
water to remove surplus flux. If necessary, the details of the cleaning method shall be
specified in the relevant specification.
6) The solder fillet shall comply with the minimum requirements for the relevant joint
given in IEC 61191-2.
