Military Standard MIL-STD-810E
Vibration Test
The Vibration test was performed in accordance
with MIL-STD-810E, Method 514.4,Procedure I,
Category 6 (Helicopter) and Category 8 (Ground
Mobile) for operational condition. To approximate
rigid mounting, the MobiTough was clamped to
analuminum plate and was then subjected to the
following levels of vibration:
Ground Vehicle Test (Category 8)
A sine vibration with logarithm sweep from 5 - 200Hz
was conducted. 5-6.25Hz, 1.0inch (double amplitude),
6.25-200Hz, 2G, 12 minutes per cycle (5-200-5). The
test was 5.5 hours along each of three orthogonal
axes. This test was conducted inaccordance with
MIL-STD-810C, Method 514, Procedure VIII.
Helicopter Vibration (Category 6)
The helicopter vibration test duration was one hour
along each of three orthogonalaxes. The test was
conducted in accordance with MIL-STD-810E, Method
514.4,Category 6.
Water Resistance
Performed in accordance with MIL-STD-810E,
Method 506.3, Procedure I (Blowing Rain).the water
resistance test subjected the unit to 114mm/hr
rainfall for 30 minutes. TheROCKY was tested while
on and fully operational with the LCD open and with
port covers in place. The ROCKY was opened following
testing to inspect for water intrusion.No water
penetrated the unit.
Humidity
Performed over 10 days, the test exposed ROCKY
to humidity for 24 hours at a time.The units were
tested at the end of the fifth and tenth day. The
temperature cycles wereset between 86°F and 140°F.
The Humidity test was performed in accordance
withMIL-STD-810E, Method 507.3, Procedure III (Aggravated).
The ROCKY exhibitedno abnormalities following
testing.
Salt Fog
The Salt Fog test was performed according to
MIL-STD-810E, Method 509. The ROCKY was placed in a
salt fog chamber for 48 hours with the salt fog
spray at35°C. The ROCKY continued to operate
following the Salt Fog testing.
High Temperature
Two High Temperature tests were conducted in
accordance with MIL-STD-810E, Method501.3, In
Procedures I (Storage) the test subjected the unit
to 12 hours dwell time of 23°Cand 12 hours dwell
time of 60°C in each cycle, 24 hours per cycle,
total of seven cycles.In Procedure II (Operation)
the test subjected the unit to three cycles of 12
hours at 23°Cand 12 hours at 50°C.
Low TemperatureThe Low Temperature test was
performed according to MIL-STD-810E, Method 502.3,
Procedures I (Storage) and II (Operation). Procedure
I (Storage) called for the unit tobe stored in -20°C
temperature for 4 hours. Procedure II (Operation)
required the unit to be operating at 0°C for 4 hours.
The ROCKY's continued to boot and operate
followingeach test without any signs of
abnormalities.
Shock
The Shock test was performed in accordance with
MIL-STD-810E, Method 516.4 Procedure 1.Shock tests
are performed to assure that material can withstand
the relatively infrequent, non-repetitive shocks or
transient vibrations encountered in handling,
transportation andservice environment. (According to
MIL-STD 810E) The ROCKY continued to boot up
andoperate following the shock test exposure at 40G.
11ms Half saw wave.
Industrial Standard IP54 (IEC 529)
The IP54 (IEC 529) tests the system’s
protection against dust and water. To obtain IP54
certification, ROCKY was subjected to dust and spray
water tests. The dust test called for ROCKY to be
placed in a dust test chamber and subjected to 8
hours of agitation. The spray water test challenged
ROCKY to withstand 10 minutes of continuous water
flow from 25 different spray nozzles.
Conditions:
Storage temperature -40° to +70°C Operating
temperature -20° to +50°C Maximum operating humidity
93% relative humidity non-condensing
Optional MIL-STD-461D CE102, RE101, and RE102
Certification
This standard establishes the design
requirements for the control of the electromagnetic
emission and susceptibility characteristics of
electronic, electrical, and electromechanical
equipment and subsystems designed or procured for
use by activities and agencies of the Department of
Defense. Such equipment and subsystems may be used
independently or as an integral part of other
subsystems or systems. Data item requirements are
also included. |
