IEC 60529 IP Code testing defines protection levels for enclosures against solid objects, dust, and water. At E-Labs, we provide full testing to both Water Ingress (IPX1–IPX6) and Solid/Dust Ingress (IP1–6X) requirements to validate product durability, safety, and reliability.
MIL-DTL-901H is the U.S. Navy’s standard for high-impact shock testing of shipboard equipment. It evaluates how mission-critical systems and components perform when exposed to sudden, violent shock events — such as those caused by underwater explosions or collisions. Testing under MIL-DTL-901H ensures that equipment mounted on Navy vessels can withstand severe mechanical shock without loss of function, compromising safety, or endangering the ship’s mission. Note that E-Labs performs only the Lightweight Shock test per this specification. We do not conduct Medium or Heavy weight shock tests.
MIL-STD-167-1 establishes vibration test requirements for shipboard equipment, focusing on both environmental and mechanical vibrations found on naval vessels. The standard is designed to ensure that equipment can operate safely and reliably in the presence of low-frequency shipboard vibrations and intermittent mechanical disturbances. Compliance helps guarantee long-term durability and functionality at sea.
MIL-STD-810 is a U.S. military standard that establishes environmental test methods for equipment and systems. Its purpose is to ensure materials, devices, and systems can withstand the environmental stresses they will encounter during their service life. Although originally designed for military applications, many aerospace, automotive, electronics, and commercial industries also use MIL-STD-810 to prove reliability and durability. The standard does not mandate fixed test levels — it provides guidance and procedures for tailoring test conditions to specific environments encountered worldwide.
RTCA/DO-160 covers standard procedures and environmental test criteria for testing airborne electronic equipment (avionics) for the entire spectrum of aircraft, from light general aviation aircraft and helicopters through to the “jumbo jet” and “supersonic transport” classes of aircraft.
