International standard Cancelled

Mechanical structures for electronic equipment - Tests for IEC 60917 and IEC 60297 - Part 3: Electromagnetic shielding performance tests for cabinets, racks and subracks

Specifies the tests for empty cabinets and subracks concerning electromagnetic shielding performance, in the frequency range of 30 MHz to 2 000 MHz. Ensures physical integrity and environmental performance of cabinets and subracks, taking into account the need for different levels of performance in different applications. Was developed in close relationship to IEC 61000-5-7 but with the specific focus on subracks and cabinets and the determination of performance levels at the chosen frequency range.

Mechanical structures for electronic equipment - Tests for IEC 60917 and IEC 60297 - Part 3: Electromagnetic shielding performance tests for cabinets, racks and subracks

Specifies the test of empty cabinets and subracks concerning electromagnetic shielding performance, in the frequency range of 30 MHz to 1 000 MHz. Stipulated attenuation values are chosen for the definition of the shielding performance level of cabinets and subracks as per the IEC 60297 and IEC 60917 series. The purpose is to ensure physical integrity and environmental performance in cabinets and subracks.

Mechanical structures for electronic equipment - Tests for IEC 60917 and IEC 60297 - Part 3: Electromagnetic shielding performance tests for cabinets and subracks

IEC 61587-3:2013 specifies the tests for empty cabinets and subracks concerning electromagnetic shielding performance, in the frequency range of 30 MHz to 3 000 MHz. Stipulated attenuation values are chosen for the definition of the shielding performance level of cabinets and subracks for the IEC 60297 and IEC 60917 series. The shielding performance levels are chosen with respect to the requirements of the typical fields of industrial application. They will support the measures to achieve electromagnetic compatibility but cannot replace the final testing of compliance of the equipped enclosure. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition issued in 2006. It constitutes a technical revision. The main technical changes with regard to the previous edition are as follows. This edition corrects the errors of EM code descriptions and the frequency range for the shielding performance is extended up to 3 000 MHz. Keywords: Electromagnetic, Shielding, Cabinets, Subracks
