Connectors for electrical and electronic equipment - Tests and measurements - Part 15-2: Connector tests (mechanical) - Test 15b: Insert retention in housing (axial)

This part of IEC 60512, when required by the detail (product) specification, is used for testing
connectors within the scope of technical committee 48. It may also be used for similar devices
when specified in a detail (product) specification.
The object of this document is to detail a standard test method to assess the effectiveness of
the retaining system of a connector insert within a connector housing to withstand axial forces
likely to be encountered during normal use, i.e. the highest insertion and withdrawal forces
into/from a mating counterpart, without the connector insert being dislodged from the
connector housing.
NOTE The test method detailed in this document is a companion to the one detailed in IEC 60512-15-3
(see Bibliography).

Connecteurs pour équipements électriques et électroniques - Essais et mesures - Partie 15-2: Essais (mécaniques) des connecteurs - Essai 15b: Rétention de l'isolant dans le boîtier (axial)

IEC 60512-15-2:2018 La présente partie de l'IEC 60512 est utilisée, lorsque la spécification particulière (de produit) l’exige, pour les essais des connecteurs qui entrent dans le domaine d’application du comité d’études 48. Elle peut aussi être utilisée pour des dispositifs similaires lorsqu’une spécification particulière (de produit) le spécifie.
L’objet de ce document est de détailler une méthode d’essai normalisée pour évaluer l’efficacité du système de retenue d’un isolant de connecteur à l'intérieur d'un boîtier de connecteur à résister aux forces axiales susceptibles d'être rencontrées au cours d’une utilisation normale, c'est-à-dire les forces d'insertion et d'extraction les plus élevées dans/en provenance d'un connecteur d'accouplement correspondant, l'isolant de connecteur n'étant pas détaché du boîtier de connecteur.
La méthode d’essai détaillée dans le présent document accompagne celle détaillée dans l'IEC 60512-15-3.
Cette deuxième édition annule et remplace la première édition, parue en 2008, dont elle constitue une révision technique.
Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'édition précédente:  La méthode d'essai B (méthode de la pression) appropriée aux essais du connecteur hermétique a été ajoutée.  La présente édition reflète l'IEC 60512-1-101, Spécification particulière cadre.
Mots clés: connecteurs, essais des connecteurs, Rétention de l'isolant

Konektorji za električno in elektronsko opremo - Preskusi in meritve - 15-2. del: Preskušanje konektorjev (mehansko) - Preskus 15b: Vtikalno zadrževanje pri ohišju (aksialno)

Ta del standarda IEC 60512 se uporablja, če tako zahteva podrobna specifikacija (izdelka), za preskušanje konektorjev na področju uporabe tehničnega odbora 48. Lahko se uporablja tudi za podobne elemente, če je tako določeno v podrobni specifikaciji (izdelka).
Cilj tega dokumenta je podrobno opisati standardno preskusno metodo za ocenjevanje učinkovitosti zadrževalnega sistema vložka konektorja v ohišju konektorja, da zdrži aksialne sile, ki jim bo verjetno izpostavljen pri običajni uporabi, tj. najvišje vtične in izvlačilne sile v/iz nasprotne strani stiskanja, brez da je vložek konektorja premaknjen iz ohišja konektorja.
OPOMBA: preskusna metoda, ki je podrobno opisana v tem dokumentu, je spremljevalna metoda, ki je podrobno opisana v standardu  IEC 60512-15-3 (glej bibliografijo).
