Rugged4U works with the best testing centers which specializes in the field of Mil-Std-461Many of our Turn-key solutions were tested according to Mil-STD 461.

MIL-STD 461 was published to determine the requirements for the control of electromagnetic interference characteristics of subsystems and equipment for applicable Military and Aerospace requirements.

It has various issues starting with revision A and up the current revision E.

MIL-STD 461 revision F has been published and is beginning to be implemented into current Military contracts.

MIL-STD 461 is basically divided into two areas, Emissions and Susceptibility. The electromagnetic effects are either conducted or radiated.

MIL-STD 461 establishes the requirements for Conducted Emissions, Conducted Susceptibility, and Radiated Emissions Radiated Susceptibility.

The military standard MIL-STD-810 test series addresses a broad range of environmental conditions that include:

• Low pressure for altitude testing.
• Exposure to high and low temperatures plus temperature shock (both operating and in storage).
• Rain (including wind blown and freezing rain); humidity, fungus, salt fog for rust testing.
• Sand and dust exposure.
• Explosive atmosphere; leakage; acceleration; shock and transport shock (i.e., triangle/sine/square wave shocks), random vibration.

The environmental management and engineering processes described within MIL-STD-810 can be of enormous value to generate confidence in the environmental worthiness and overall durability of a system design.
