What is Space Simulation Testing?
Space Simulation Testing replicates the high altitudes and temperatures for items that are used in outer space, satellites, or rockets. Products that will be used in space or high altitudes must be able to endure combined environments of extreme temperatures and extreme low pressures. Space is defined as an altitude more than 100 km (62 miles or 328,000 feet) above sea level. The pressure at this altitude is roughly 2.4 x 10-04 to 4 x 10-04 mbar (1.8 x 10-04 to 3 x 10-04 torr) [1]. Temperatures can be as cold as -80 °C. This is a very difficult environment…
Delserro Engineering Solutions (DES) – Recent Projects (Spring 2021)
Recently, DES has been very busy working on multiple space and aerospace test programs. We can’t discuss too many details due to the sensitive nature of the products. Some highlights are:
What Exactly is MIL-STD 810?
MIL-STD 810 is a Department of Defense Test Method Standard for environmental engineering considerations and laboratory tests. It is the most popular Military specification used to conduct environmental testing of military products. It exists so as to ensure that products used for defense-related purposes meet very specific requirements with regard to ruggedness, durability, and performance. Given the fact that these products may be exposed to harsh or even extreme conditions, their reliability under stress is essential
Salt Fog or Salt Spray Testing
Salt fog (aka salt atmosphere or salt spray) testing exposes components to a fine salt fog mist that can result in rusting or corrosion of susceptible materials. Samples to be tested are hung or placed on a rack inside of the salt fog chamber at the orientation that is specified in the applicable test method or otherwise agreed to with the customer. The orientation during testing is important as unintended corrosion can result if the salt fog is allowed to condense and pool on the sample. The samples are then exposed to a salt fog of defined salt content. The…
How to Implement a HASS Program
This article is a general outline on how to implement a HASS program after a successful HALT has been performed and corrective actions have been completed for any weaknesses found during HALT. For more information about HASS, please read our blog, What is HASS Testing? For more information about HALT, please read our blogs What is HALT (Highly Accelerated Life Testing) and Why Perform HALT? What Kind of Failures Occur During HALT? What Equipment is Used for HALT? What is a Typical HALT Procedure?
DES Performs Testing for NASA Psyche Program
Delserro Engineering Solutions (DES) was proud to recently perform testing for the NASA Psyche Program. More information about this program can be found at the following web link https://www.jpl.nasa.gov/missions/psyche/. DES was contracted by a local manufacturer to help qualify their product for use in the demanding Psyche spacecraft environment. DES’s role was to perform specialized pyroshock testing and vibration testing on their products. What sets DES apart from other labs is our in-depth experience and technical capability to understand and reproduce the most complicated vibration and shock profiles. DES continues to perform the most complex vibration and shock tests on…
