Constant cold temperature or dry heat testing

The tests will be carried out with either standard EN 60068-2-1 (cold) or EN 60068-2-2 (hot), which establish procedures for evaluating the tolerance of components, equipment, or articles to cold and dry heat environments.

The scope of these standards is limited to static temperature conditions during storage, transportation, or use. To assess a product’s response to temperature changes, the IEC 60068-2-14 standard is applicable.

Example testing conditions:

• Temperature = -40°C or +45°C

• Time = 400 minutes

• Operating equipment needs to be provided when signal and power access to the unit is required.
