This is a legislation item that originated from the EU

After exit day there will be three versions of this legislation to consult for different purposes. The legislation.gov.uk version is the version that applies in the UK. The EU Version currently on EUR-lex is the version that currently applies in the EU i.e you may need this if you operate a business in the EU.

The web archive version is the official version of this legislation item as it stood on exit day before being published to legislation.gov.uk and any subsequent UK changes and effects applied. The web archive also captured associated case law and other language formats from EUR-Lex.

4.1Temperature

Verify functionality through:

  • Test according to ISO 16750-4, Chapter 5.1.1.2: Low temperature operation test (72 h @ – 20 °C)

    This test refers to IEC 60068-2-1: Environmental testing — Part 2-1: Tests — Test A: Cold

  • Test according to ISO 16750-4: Chapter 5.1.2.2: High temperature operation test (72 h @ 70 °C)

    This test refers to IEC 60068-2-2: Basic environmental testing procedures; part 2: tests; tests B: dry heat

  • Test according to ISO 16750-4: Chapter 5.3.2: Rapid change of temperature with specified transition duration (– 20 °C/70 °C, 20 cycles, dwell time 1 h at each temperature)

    A reduced set of tests (among those defined in section 3 of this table) can be carried out at the lower temperature, the higher temperature and during the temperature cycles

4.2HumidityVerify that the vehicle unit can withstand a cyclic damp (heat test) through IEC 60068-2-30, test Db, six 24 hours cycles, each temperature varying from + 25 °C to + 55 °C and a relative humidity of 97 % at + 25 °C and equal to 93 % at + 55 °C214
4.3Mechanical
1.

Sinusoidal vibrations.

verify that the vehicle unit can withstand sinusoidal vibrations with the following characteristics:

  • constant displacement between 5 and 11 Hz: 10 mm peak

  • constant acceleration between 11 and 300 Hz: 5g

This requirement is verified through IEC 60068-2-6, test Fc, with a minimum test duration of 3 × 12 hours (12 hours per axis)

ISO 16750-3 does not require a sinusoidal vibration test for devices located in the decoupled vehicle cab.

2.

Random vibrations:

Test according to ISO 16750-3: Chapter 4.1.2.8: Test VIII: Commercial vehicle, decoupled vehicle cab

Random vibration test, 10…2 000 Hz, RMS vertical 21,3 m/s2, RMS longitudinal 11,8 m/s2, RMS lateral 13,1 m/s2, 3 axes, 32 h per axis, including temperature cycle – 20…70°C.

This test refers to IEC 60068-2-64: Environmental testing — Part 2-64: Tests — Test Fh: Vibration, broadband random and guidance

3.

Shocks:

mechanical shock with 3g half sinus according ISO 16750.

The tests described above are performed on different samples of the equipment type being tested.

4.4Protection against water and foreign bodiesTest according to ISO 20653: Road vehicles — Degree of protection (IP code) — Protection of electrical equipment against foreign objects, water and access (No change in parameters)220, 221
4.5Over-voltage protectionVerify that the vehicle unit can withstand a power supply of:216
24 V versions:34 V at + 40 °C 1 hour
12V versions:17 V at + 40 °C 1 hour
( ISO 16750-2, chapter 4.3)
4.6Reverse polarity protection

Verify that the vehicle unit can withstand an inversion of its power supply

(ISO 16750-2, chapter 4.7)

216
4.7Short-circuit protection

Verify that input output signals are protected against short circuits to power supply and ground

(ISO 16750-2, chapter 4.10])

For 24V versions: compliance with ISO 7637-2 + ECE Regulation No. 10 Rev. 3:

  • pulse 1a: Vs = – 450V Ri = 50 ohms

  • pulse 2a: Vs= + 37V Ri = 2 ohms

  • pulse 2b: Vs= + 20V Ri = 0,05 ohms

  • pulse 3a: Vs= – 150V Ri = 50 ohms

  • pulse 3b: Vs=+ 150V Ri = 50 ohms

  • pulse 4: Vs = – 16 V Va = – 12V t6 = 100 ms

  • pulse 5: Vs= + 120 V Ri = 2,2 ohms td = 250 ms

For 12V versions: compliance with ISO 7637-1 + ECE Regulation No. 10 Rev. 3:

  • pulse 1: Vs= – 75V Ri=10 ohms

  • pulse 2a: Vs= + 37V Ri=2 ohms

  • pulse 2b: Vs= + 10V Ri=0,05 ohms

  • pulse 3a: Vs= – 112V Ri=50 ohms

  • pulse 3b: Vs= + 75V Ri=50 ohms

  • pulse 4: Vs= – 6V Va=-5V t6=15ms

  • pulse 5: Vs= + 65V Ri=3ohms td=100ms

Pulse 5 shall be tested only for vehicle units designed to be installed in vehicles for which no external common protection against load dump is implemented

For load dump proposal, refer to ISO 16750-2, 4th edition, chapter 4.6.4.
