What is BS EN 60068-2-78 - Damp-heat and steady-state environmental testing about?
BS EN 60068-2-78 is a European standard and a part of the BS EN 60068 that discusses the test cab for damp-heat and steady-state environmental testing. Environmental testing is the measurement of the performance of equipment under specified environmental conditions, such as extremely high and low temperatures.
BS EN 60068-2-78 establishes a test method for determining the ability of components or equipment to withstand transportation, storage and use under conditions of high humidity. The object of BS EN 60068-2-78 is to investigate the effect of high humidity at a constant temperature without condensation on a specimen over a prescribed period. It applies to small equipment or components as well as large equipment and can be applied to both heat-dissipating and non-heat-dissipating specimens.
