Specifically, I was looking for the names of equipment anufacturers in the US who manufacture Steam Ageing chambers and the olderability testing equipment (dip and look) Thanks, mol From: [log in to unmask] [mailto:ddfritz@a ol.com] ent: Thursday, April 23, 2009 11:03 AM o: [log in to unmask]; Kane, Amol (349) ubject: Re: [TN] IPC/EIA-J-STD 002 Steam Ageing Amol, You are going to get it from Dave Hillman, chairman of IPC 002!!! He ikes to refer to it as "steam conditioning" or "steam stressing". People ry to equate performanc in steam stressing to the aging of the component n storage. Storage in Singapore is far different from storage in innepeg. Is there some part of this paragraph on equipment that is a problem? .3.1 Steam Conditioning Apparatus The steam conditioning chamber shall be onstructed of non-corrodible materials such as orosilicate glass, quartz glass, stainless steel or PTFE. The specimen older shall be non-reactive to prevent galvanic corrosion. The ontainer should be insulated. The steam temperature at the conditioning evel shall be maintained per the requirements of Table 3-2. able 3-2 Steam Temperature Requirements ltitude Average Local oiling Point °C team Temperature imits °C -305 m 100 93 ± 3 05-610 m 99 92 ± 3 10-914 m 98 91 ± 3 14-1219 m 97 90 ± 3 219-1524 m 96 89 ± 3 524-1829 m 95 88 ± 3 safe means to prevent excessive pressure and a means of maintaining dequate water level shall be provided.
