There are a few reasons to use the environmental test facilities:
- Reproduce field failures for troubleshooting purposes. Our engineering services team can help define a test routine for you and even get involved with solving the problem.
- Product development studies: Use Professional Testing to make sure your product will withstand environmentally harsh conditions before your customers test it.
- Testing to standards: There are literally hundreds of standards that require environmental testing for compliance. Common standards include MIL-STD-461, DO-160, IEC 68, and more. Some of the common tests? we encounter are included here?.
As always, we are here to help with the product design cycle to ensure a reliable product. We see reliability issues on a daily basis, and have amassed a great amount of knowledge for solutions we want to share with you. Here is how we can be involved at each stage with our engineering services group.
