An abbreviation for MIL-STD-810 Revision F The MIL-STD-810 series are the specifications for various environmental tests to prove that equipment qualified to the standard will survive in the field Revisions up to Rev C used fairly generic tests for various classes of gear. Once Rev D came around (Circa 1985) the testing, in particular shock and vibration were more tailored for the actual expected operating environment It is important to know which methods a device is qualified under, and different methods test for different things For Instance: MIL-STD 810E Method 500.3 Low Pressure (aka Altitude testing) MIL-STD 810E Method 501.3 High Temperature (Both storage and operating) MIL-STD 810E Method 502.3 Low Temperature (Ditto) MIL-STD 810E Method 503.3 Temperature Shock (How well does the device handle going from high to low temps, and back) MIL-STD 810E Method 506.3 Rain (How does the device do in wind blown rain) MIL-STD 810E Method 507.3 Humidity (Can it handle high Humidity) MIL-STD 810E Method 508.4 Fungus (device is exposed to warm moist air in the presence of Fungus to see if it grows on the device) MIL-STD 810E Method 509.3 Salt Fog (does it rust/fail when exposed to salt fog) MIL-STD 810E Method 510.3 Sand and Dust (how well does the unit work when exposed to - you guessed it - sand and dust) MIL-STD 810E Method 511.3 Explosive Atmosphere (does it create enough sparks/etc to cause an explosive atmosphere to blow up) MIL-STD 810E Method 512.3 Leakage MIL-STD 810E Method 513.4 Acceleration (constant accleration) MIL-STD 810E Method 516.4 Shock (either Shock Response Spectrums, or Triangle/sine/square wave shocks) - also transport shock MIL-STD 810E Method 519.4 Gunfire MIL-STD 810E Method 520.1 Temp, Humidity, Vibration (Traditionally sine wave (pre D) - later random vibration - combined with Temp testing) MIL-STD 810E Method 521.1 Icing, Freezing Rain (what it sounds like) |
