The remainder of this page speaks to the specifics of the MIL 810C test standard. What Was the Purpose of MIL STD 810C? MIL-810C establishes uniform environmental test methods for determining the resistance of equipment. The objective is to determine the effects of natural and induced environments peculiar to military operations. MIL-STD-810C provides environmental test methods in order to obtain, as much as possible, reproducible test results.
How is the MIL-STD-810C Test Standard Organized? The test item shall then be operated to determine that no malfunction or damage was caused by faulty installation or handling. The requirement for operation following installation of the test item in the test facility is applicable only when operation is required during exposure to the specified test. When operation of the test item is required during test exposure, suitable tests shall be performed to determine whether the test exposure is producing changes in performance when compared with present data. At the completion of each environmental test, the test item shall be inspected in accordance with the equipment specification and the results shall be compared with the pretest data obtained. What are the Requirements of the Test Chambers? Test data shall include complete identification of all test equipment and accessories.
The data shall include the actual test sequence used, and ambient test conditions recorded periodically during the test period. The test record shall contain a signature and data block for certification of the test data by the test engineer. Failure criteria is an important factor in MIL-810-C testing. This military test standard states that the item shall have failed the test when any of the following occur. The monitored functional parameters deviate beyond the established acceptable limits. There is a catastrophic or structural failure of the unit under test.
