SYSTEM COMPLIANCE

MIL-STD-1399 Section 300B: For Type I apparatus

MIL-STD-740-1: The rugged Ultra Lightweight Galaxy-Series System was tested and qualified to MIL-STD-740-1 Airborne Sound Measurements for Shipboard Equipment

Additional Ruggedization to meet MIL-STD-901, MIL-STD-167, MIL-STD-810, and DOD-STD-1399: The System’s construction is extremely robust, and ruggedized throughout. All components and modules within the unit are mounted using additional steel brackets and heavy-duty stainless-steel hardware, which is then further secured using Loctite and RTV where required. All boards are conformal-coated (Acrylic MIL-I-46058 Type R) for maximum resistance to potential condensation and fungus growth. The unit was tested and qualified as follows:

MIL-STD-901D
for Grade A, Class III, Type B Equipment

MIL-STD-167-1 for Type I Equipment

MIL-STD-810F:

· Air Temperature per MIL-STD-810F Method 502.4, Procedure II

· Operational Humidity per MIL-STD-810F Method 507.4.

· Salt Fog Atmosphere per MIL-STD-810F Method 509.4

· Steady State Temperature per MIL-STD-810F, Method 502.4, Procedure I, low temperature storage @ 40°C.

· Temperature Shock per MIL-STD-810F, Method 503.4, Procedure II, Cyclic.

· Storage and Transportation Humidity per MIL-STD-810F, Method 507.4, subject the UUT to 95% relative humidity at 30°C.

· Altitude per MIL-STD-810F, Method 500.4, Procedure I, Storage/Air Transport.

· Transit Shock per MIL-STD-810F, Method 516, Procedures VI, V and VI,

· Transportation Vibration per MIL-STD-810F, Method 514, Procedure II for loose cargo transportation

DOD-STD-1399 Section 301A Table V –Design Limits for Ship Motion

Internal EMI Reduction Package to meet MIL-STD-461: The design of this unit is specifically focused on reducing EMI emissions. The unit contains substantial internal filtering to minimize EMI emissions. Inputs which may be susceptible to transients are protected by several methods. The compact rack mount chassis is specifically treated with low surface resistivity finishes on the interior. All aluminum parts are treated with clear irridite. The steel parts are treated with zinc plate, followed by a clear chromate. Paint method via ANSI-61 gray is designed to assure excellent bonding of mating sheet metal parts. All input and output ventilation filters include metal honeycomb-style or mesh filters. The unit was tested and qualified as follows:

MIL-STD-461E:
CE101, CE102, CS101, CS114, CS116, RE102, RS101, and RS103
