Comprehensive Guide to IEC 60068-2-64 Vibration (Broadband Random) Testing Services Provided by Eurolab

Standard-Related Information

IEC 60068-2-64 is a standard that outlines the requirements for vibration testing of electronic and electrical equipment. This standard is published by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) and is widely adopted across various industries, including electronics, automotive, aerospace, and more.

Why this Standard Matters

The IEC 60068-2-64 standard is essential for ensuring that electronic and electrical equipment can withstand the rigors of transportation, handling, and operation. Vibration testing helps to identify potential weaknesses in design or construction, which can lead to failures, damage, or even catastrophic consequences.

International and National Standards

IEC 60068-2-64 is based on international standards such as ISO 8561 (Vibration testing of equipment) and IEC 60068-3 (Environmental testing). In addition, national standards like EN 60068-2-64 (Germany), TSE 60068-2-64 (Turkey), and others may also apply to specific regions or industries.

Standard Development Organizations

The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is responsible for developing and maintaining the IEC 60068-2-64 standard. The IEC is a non-profit organization that brings together experts from around the world to develop international standards for the benefit of all nations.

Evolution and Updates

Standards like IEC 60068-2-64 evolve over time as technology advances, new testing methods are developed, or safety concerns arise. Regular updates ensure that the standard remains relevant and effective in ensuring product reliability and safety.

Standard Numbers and Scope

IEC 60068-2-64 is just one part of a larger family of standards related to environmental testing. The scope of this standard includes:

  • Vibration testing of electronic and electrical equipment
  • Random vibration testing (broadband)
  • Equipment classification for vibration testing
  • Industry-Specific Compliance Requirements

    Different industries have varying compliance requirements when it comes to IEC 60068-2-64. For example, the automotive industry may require specific testing frequencies or severities to ensure that components can withstand road conditions.
