1、Designation:B66294(Reapproved 2012)Standard Specification forSilver-Molybdenum Electrical Contact Material1This standard is issued under the fixed designation B662;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revi
2、sion.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This specification covers electrical contact componentsmade from silver-molybdenum by powder metallurgical pro-cedures.1.2 This spec
3、ification covers compositions within the silver-molybdenum system normally specified by users of contacts.1.3 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas standard.No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety
4、concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to become familiarwith all hazards including those identified in the appropriateMaterial Safety Data Sheet(MSDS)for this product/materialas provided by the manufacturer,to establish appropriatesafety and hea
5、lth practices,and determine the applicability ofregulatory limitations prior to use.2.Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:2B328 Test Method for Density,Oil Content,and Intercon-nected Porosity of Sintered Metal Structural Parts andOil-Impregnated Bearings(Withdrawn 2009)33.Ordering Information3.1

15、959.United States1 9.Significance and Use9.1 Proprietary methods for the manufacture of these mate-rials vary significantly among suppliers,and these methodsinfluence such properties as arc erosion,contact resistance,andthe tendency to weld in service.Since the performance ofcontacts in a device dep
16、ends on numerous factors outside thecontact itself(opening speed,closing speed,contact pressure,contact bounce,environmental variations,assembly techniqueand variations,etc.),this specification cannot ensure perfor-mance control in the application.As part of the qualification oninitial samples,it is recommended that the user functionallyand electrically test the materials for all devices applicable tothe materials use.This specification will provide a means forthe contact manufacturer and contac
