DIN EN 62506
Methods for product accelerated testing (IEC 62506:2013); German version EN 62506:2013

Title (German)

Verfahren für beschleunigte Produktprüfungen (IEC 62506:2013); Deutsche Fassung EN 62506:2013

Overview

This new standard provides guidance on the application of various accelerated test techniques for measurement and improvement of product reliability. Identification of potential failure modes that could be experienced in the use of a product or an item and their mitigation is instrumental to ensure dependability of an item. The object of the methods is to either identify potential design weakness or provide information on item dependability, or to achieve necessary reliability/availability improvement, all within a compressed or accelerated period of time. This standard addresses accelerated testing of non-repairable and repairable systems. It can be used for probability ratio sequential tests, fixed duration tests and reliability improvement/growth tests, where the measure of reliability may differ from the standard probability of failure occurrence. This standard also extends to present accelerated testing or production screening methods that would identify weakness introduced into the product by manufacturing error, which could compromise product dependability. The responsible committee is DKE/K 132 "Zuverlässigkeit" ("Dependability") of the DKE (German Commission for Electrical, Electronic and Information Technologies) at DIN and VDE.
