The MIL-S-901D standard, developed by the US Department of Defense, includes shock test requirements for shipboard machinery, equipment, systems and structures, excluding submarine pressure hull passages.
The purpose of these requirements is to verify the ability of onboard facilities to withstand shock loadings that may be incurred during combat service due to the effects of nuclear or conventional weapons.
The MIL-S-901 standard is seen as a way to ensure that the navy has reliable and durable equipment on the water, both in times of peace and war. This is required in any situation where servers need to continue to operate and perform as a result of high-impact shock.
Because a failed mission is a situation that puts troops in danger. From rugged computers to power plants, power supplies and many other ship installations, MIL-S-901 certification provides a high degree of confidence that equipment used by the navy will operate with high accuracy whenever needed.
The MIL-S-901D standard is a military standard designed to outline shock testing requirements for navy ship machinery, equipment, systems, and structures. It is a widely requested testing requirement for onboard rugged servers, workstations, and other onboard systems and equipment owned and operated by the US Navy.
The shock test requirements defined in this standard are required for any ship system and equipment that is expected to withstand high-impact mechanical shocks from weapons.
This standard includes:
In the lightness test, the weight supported by the anvil plate must not exceed 250 Kg. In the medium-weight test, the weight supported by the medium-weight shocker anvil plate must not exceed 3.400 Kg per specification. The high-weight test, on the other hand, is the best known because it involves placing explosive charges near a standard or large floating shock platform that houses the item or equipment under test.
Class A items as shock grades are essential for the ship's safety and sustained combat capability. Class B items are objects whose operation is not essential for the safety and combat capability of the ship, but which poses a hazard to personnel, class A items or the ship as a whole as a result of exposure to shock. The shock ratings listed in this standard help test engineers determine operational severity levels.
Among the numerous test, measurement, analysis and evaluation studies it has given for businesses in various sectors, our organization meets the shock test requirements for onboard machinery, equipment, systems and structures within the scope of MIL-S-901D standard, with its trained and expert staff and advanced technological equipment. It also provides testing services for
