BS EN 60068-2-68:1996 is a British Standard that specifies the test for "low-temperature storage" for electronic components and other parts of electronic equipment. This standard is part of the BS EN 60068 series of environmental testing standards, which cover a wide range of conditions including temperature, humidity, vibration, shock, and more.
BS EN 60068-2-68:1996 outlines the test procedures and conditions for subjecting electronic components and equipment to low-temperature storage. The purpose of this test is to evaluate the ability of electronic components and equipment to withstand prolonged exposure to low temperatures without suffering damage or degradation in performance.
The standard specifies the test conditions, including the temperature range, the duration of the test, and the types of equipment that should be used to conduct the test. The test temperature range is typically between -40°C and -10°C, although other temperature ranges may be used depending on the requirements of the equipment being tested.
The purpose of this standard is to ensure that electronic components and equipment can operate reliably and safely under a range of environmental conditions, and that they meet the requirements of relevant safety standards. It is typically used by manufacturers, testing laboratories, and regulatory bodies to evaluate the environmental performance of electronic components and equipment and to ensure that they are fit for purpose.
