二、电子设备可靠性测试标准1、ISO国际标准化组织中,ISO/TC22/SC3?负责汽车电气和电子技术领域的标准化工作。
汽车电子产品的应用环境包括电磁环境、电气环境、气候环境、机械环境、化学环境等。
目前ISO?制订的汽车电子标准环境条件和试验标准主要包含如下方面:ISO16750-1:道路车辆-电子电气产品的环境条件和试验:总则ISO16750-2:道路车辆-电子电气产品的环境条件和试验:供电环境ISO16750-3:道路车辆-电子电气产品的环境条件和试验:机械环境ISO16750-4:道路车辆-电子电气产品的环境条件和试验:气候环境ISO16750-5:道路车辆-电子电气产品的环境条件和试验:化学环境ISO20653?汽车电子设备防护外物、水、接触的等级ISO21848?道路车辆-供电电压42V?的电气和电子装备电源环境国内目前汽车电子产品的环境试验标准主要还是按照产品的技术条件来规定。
全国汽车标准化技术委员会(SAC/TC114)正在参照ISO?标准制订相应的国家和行业标准。
ISO?的标准在欧美车系的车厂中得到了广泛采用,而日系车厂的要求相对ISO?标准来说偏离较大。
为了确保达到标准的限值,各汽车车厂的内控的环境条件标准一般比ISO?的要求要苛刻。
2、AEC?系列标准上个世纪九十年代,克莱斯勒、福特和通用汽车为建立一套通用的零件资质及质量系统标准而设立了汽车电子委员会(AEC),AEC?建立了质量控制的标准。
AEC-Q-100?芯片应力测试的认证规范是AEC?的第一个标准。
AEC-Q-100?于1994?年首次发表,由于符合AEC?规范的零部件均可被上述三家车厂同时采用,促进了零部件制造商交换其产品特性数据的意愿,并推动了汽车零件通用性的实施,使得AEC?标准逐渐成为汽车电子零部件的通用测试规范。
经过10?多年的发展,AEC-Q-100?已经成为汽车电子系统的通用标准。
在AEC-Q-100?之后又陆续制定了针对离散组件的AEC-Q-101?和针对被动组件的AEC-Q-200?等规范,以及AEC-Q001/Q002/Q003/Q004?等指导性原则。
一、概述对于户外用的便携式电子电气设备、汽车电子设备、通讯设备等均有外壳防护测试要求,针对某些使用环境条件还可能会有特殊要求,如风沙大,热带潮湿,海岸边多盐雾,多雨淋、喷雾等比较严酷的使用环境条件。
电子电气零部件的外壳必须具备相应的防护能力,主要包括防接触、防水、防爆、防机械碰撞等防护要求,以确保元器件使用的安全性和可靠性。
下面就目前比较流行的外壳防护体系做全面的总结和梳理,介绍各防护体系的标准要求和测试方法,并分析其异同点。
二、IP防护体系IP防护体系来源于国际电工委员会(IEC),也就是国际上和国内普遍采用的IP代码,该代码体系以EN/IEC 60529-2001 Degrees of protection provided by enclosures(IP code)标准为基础,我国标准GB 4208就等同采用了该标准。
IP防护体系中,对外壳提出了防接触和防水的防护要求,一般有两位数字组成,例如IP56,第一位特征数字表示防接触的等级,第二位特征数字则表示防水的等级。
除了IEC 60529/GB 4208标准之外,标准DIN 40050、ISO 20653等标准也采用了IP防护体系,并针对具体应用补充了三个防水等级,分别是IPX4K、IPX6K和IPX9K,防接触等级则完全一致。
IP防护体系中,各防护等级具体防护含义和相应的测试方法见表1[1]和表2[2].表1 IP防护体系-第一位特征数字参考文献:[1] GB 4208-2008/IEC 60529-2001外壳防护等级(IP代码)[2] ISO 20653-2006 Road vehicles – Degrees of protection (IP-Code) – Protection of electrical equipment against foreign objects.

The application of many devices semiconductors is temperature limited. For this reason, the potential extreme operatingeach application must be scrutinized to avoid failure in the field.FFECT O N P ERFORMANCE—The damaging effects of thermal stock and thermal cycling include:Cracking of printed circuit board or ceramic substrates.Thermal stress of fatigue failures of solder joints.FIGURE 2A—24 HOUR THERMAL CYCLEFIGURE 2B—SHORT (8 HOUR) THERMAL CYCLE FIGURE 2C—THERMAL SHOCKFIGURE 3—VEHICLE ENVIRONMENTAL ZONESFIGURE 4—RECOMMENDED HUMIDITY CYCLESSTEAM CLEAN/PRESSURE WASH CHAMBERFor pressure washing with water/detergent, the previous test should be run at 40gage) with a flow rate of approximately 9460 cm3/min (150 gal/h).None.FungusThe fungus test is used to determine the resistance of the vehicle electronic component to fungi and to determine if it is adversely affected by fungi under conditions favorable for their development;for example, high humidity, warm atmosphere, and inorganic salts.Microorganisms digest organic materials; thus, degrading the substrate, reducing the surface tension, and increasing moisture penetration.Products of cellular metabolism diffuse out of the cells and cause physical and chemical changes to Microorganisms produce bridges across components which may result in electrical failure.Resistance to biological attack can be determined by chemical analysis of the nutritive value ofmaterials and material decomposition products used in the equipment.The most common way to determine the effect of fungal growth on electronic inoculate the test item with a fungal sporecomponent to permit fungal growth, and examine and test the item. Incubation normally takes placeand humidity conditions that approximateassure suitable fungal growth.Conductive solutions used as a spore media and growth accelerator may affect operational tests.None.FIGURE 6—SAMPLE CAB MOUNTED VIBRATION PSD CLASS 8 TRUCK, VERTICAL AXISFIGURE 7—SAMPLE CAB MOUNTED VIBRATION PSD TRANSVERSE AXISFIGURE 8—SAMPLE CAB MOUNTED VIBRATION PSD CLASS 8 TRUCK, LONGITUDINAL AXISFIGURE 9—SAMPLE ENGINE VIBRATION DATA (VERTICAL), HEAVY-DUTY TRUCKFIGURE 10—CHASSIS VIBRATION DATA, PSD, BOBTAIL VERTICAL MID FRAME, HEAVY-DUTY TRUCK FIGURE 11—CHASASIS VIBRATION DATA, PSD, BOBTAIL VERTICAL REAR FRAME, HEAVY-DUTY TRUCKFIGURE 12—OPERATIONAL SHOCK PROFILEnot typical of component mounting locations,environment. This information is provided for guidance accepted test procedures at the present time.FIGURE 13—48 KM/H (30 MPH) BARRIER AND SLED SHOCK PROFILESPECIFICATIONS—Two specifications are recommended for consideration. The first,203B, Random Drop, is designed to uncover failures that may result from theshocks that occur in shipping and handling. It is an endurance test. The second, MIL-STD-202F,213B, Shock (Specified Pulse), is intended to measure the effect of known or generally accepted shock pulse It is intended that operational shock be reduced into a standard pulse shape to achieve a repeatable test method. Other valuable guidance can be found in MIL-STD-810D, Method 516.3.General Heavy-Duty Truck Electrical Environment—Factors unique to the truck/tractor that make the vehicular environment more severe than those encountered in most electrical componentapplications are:Interaction with other vehicular electronic/electrical systems on the truckVoltage variationsCustomer added equipmentLack of maintenanceComplex external electromagnetic fieldsFIGURE 14—COMBINED THERMAL AND ELECTRICAL STRESS PROFILEThe voltage applied and removed at the two points shown in Figure 14 is generally 16 V, the maximum normal voltage. If the test is performed for the high voltage battery jump start conditionnarrower temperature range is used. This is a destructive test that is often used as an indication of basic design environmental capability. The number of cycles expected before failure, the actual limit values for temperature and voltage, and the period of each cycle are dependent on the designelectronic component being considered.Samples of finished units are generally tested for extended operation at the peak voltage/temperature combination expected at the component's location. In the absence of an actual combination, the values in Table 1A and 1B are recommended. These tests often runperiods and are particularly stringent for electronic components in the underhood environment.Twenty-four Volt SystemDefinition—A normally operating vehicle will maintain supply voltages ranging from +22 to +32 V DC.However, under certain conditions, the voltage may fall to approximately 18 V DC. This can happen in an idling vehicle that has a heavy electrical load (lights and air-conditioning) and a fully discharged battery. Therefore, depending upon the application, the designer/user may specify the +18 to +32 V DC range. For specific equipment that must function during engine start, voltage may be specified. Cold cranking of the engine with a partially depleted battery at -40 ︒C (-40 ︒F) can reduce the nominal 24 V to 13.3 V minimum at the battery terminals. At the starter motor terminals, because of the voltage drop on the battery cabling, the voltage typically varies sinusoidally from 10.6 V to 16 V at about 4 HzFIGURE 15—LOAD DUMP TRANSIENTdump transient contains considerable electrical energy which must beblocked to prevent damage to electronic component. This transient occurs randomly in time appearing as individual or repetitive pulses at random unknown rates due to vibration. See for more information.Load Switching Transient—Inductive transients are caused by solenoid,conditioning clutch, and ignition system switching. These occur during vehicle operation whenever an inductive accessory is turned off. Severity is dependent on the magnitude of switched inductive load line impedance. Unfortunately, measurements to date have not been takenprocedures and were most probably observed with different loads.These transients generally take the form of large positive or negative peaks, followeddamped excursions of the opposite polarity. Transients of this nature may cause component damage or introduce logic or functional computational errors. Table 4A illustrates typical values for 12 V systems and Table 4B shows typical values for 24 V systems.FIGURE A1—MAXIMUM EXPECTED TRUCK ACCELERATION LEVELSDuring testing the test item shall be operated and monitored as if it were in normal usage.After completion of the test duration, inspect the test item and compare it to the pretest data and physical condition. Record the results.Repeat low level sweeps and note any significant changes in the resonant frequencies. A change in resonant frequency may constitute a failure.。

They are offered as a design starting point. Generally, they cannot be used directly as a set of operating specifications because some environmental conditions may change significantly with relatively minor physical location changes. This is particularly true of vibration, engine compartment temperature, and electromagnetic compatibility. Actual measurements should be made as early as practicable to verify these preliminary design baselines.The proposed test methods are currently being used for laboratory simulation or are considered to be a realistic approach to environmental design validation. They are not intended to replace actual operational tests under adverse conditions. The recommended methods describe standard cycles for each type of test. The designer must specify the number of cycles over which the vehicle electronic components should be tested.The number of cycles will vary depending upon equipment, location, and function. While the standard test cycle is representative of an actual short term environmental cycle, no attempt is made to equate this cycle to an acceleration factor for reliability or durability. These considerations are beyond the scope of this document.3.2Organization of Test Methods and Environmental Extremes Information3.2.1The data presented in this document are contained in Sections 4 and 5. Section 4, Environmental Factorsand Test Methods, describes the thirteen characteristics of the expected environment that have an impact on the performance and reliability of truck and bus electronic systems. These descriptions are titled:a.Temperatureb.Humidityc.Salt Spray Atmosphered.Immersion and Splash (Water, Chemicals, and Oils)e.Steam Cleaning and Pressure Washingf.Fungusg.Dust, Sand, and Gravel Bombardmenth.Altitudei.Mechanical Vibrationj.Mechanical Shockk.General Heavy-Duty Truck Electrical Environmentl.Steady State Electrical Characteristicsm.Transient, Noise, and Electrostatic Characteristicsn.Electromagnetic Compatibility/Electromagnetic InterferenceThey are organized to cover three facets of each factor:1.Definition of the factor2.Description of its effect on control, performance, and long-term reliability3.

In some cases, the effect of a combination of these factors is more serious than the effect of exposing samples to each environmental factor in series. For example, the suggested test method for humidity includes high- and low-temperature exposure. This combined environmental test is important to vehicle electronic components when proper operation is dependent on seal integrity. Temperature and vibration is a second combined environmental test method that can be significant to components. During design analysis a careful study should be made to determine the possibility of design susceptibility to a combination of environmental factors that could occur at the planned mounting location. If the possibility of susceptibility exists, a combined environmental test should be considered.3.4Test Sequence—The optimum test sequence is a compromise between two considerations:3.4.1The order in which the environmental exposures will occur in operational use.3.4.2 A sequence that will create a total stress on the sample that is representative of operation stress.The first consideration is impossible to implement in vehicle testing since exposures occur in a random order.The second consideration prompts the test designer to place the most severe environments last. Many sequences that have been successful follow this general philosophy, except that the temperature cycle is placed or performed first in order to condition the sample mechanically.4.Environmental Factors and Test Methods4.1Temperature4.1.1D EFINITION—Thermal factors are probably the most pervasive environmental hazard to vehicle electroniccomponents. Sources for temperature extremes and variations include:4.1.1.1The vehicle's climatic environment, including the diumal and seasonal cycles—Variations in climate bygeographical location must be considered. In the most adverse case, the vehicle that spends the winter in Canada may be driven in the summer in the Arizona desert. T emperature variations due to this source range from −54 to +85 °C (−65 to +185 °F).4.1.1.2Heat sources and sinks generated by the vehicle's operation—The major sources are the engine anddrivetrain components, including the brake system. Wide variations are found during operation. For instance, temperatures on the surface of the engine can range from the cooling system 88 °C (190 °F) to the surface at the exhaust system at 816 °C (1500 °F). This category also includes conduction, convection, and radiation of heat because of the various modes of the vehicle's operation.4.1.1.3Self-heating of the equipment due to its internal dissipation—A design review of the worst casecombination of peak ambient temperature (see 4.1.1.1 and 4.1.1.2), minimized heat flow away from the equipment, and peak-applied steady-state voltage should be conducted.4.1.1.4Vehicle operational mode and actual mounting location—Measurements should be made at the actualmounting site during the following vehicular conditions while they are subjected to the maximum heat generated by adjacent equipment, and while they are at the maximum ambient environment:a.Engine startb.Engine idlec.Engine high speedd.Engine turn off (Prior history important.)e.Various engine/road conditions4.1.1.5Ambient conditions before installation due to storage and transportation extremes—Shipment in unheatedaircraft cargo compartments may lower the minimum storage (nonoperating) temperature to −50 °C (−58°F).The thermal environmental conditions that are a result of these conditions can be divided into three categories:a.Extremes - The ultimate upper and lower temperatures the equipment is expected to experience.b.Cycling - The cumulative effects of temperature cycling within the limits of the extremes.c.Shock - Rapid change of temperature. Figure 1 illustrates one form of vehicle operation that inducesthermal shock and is derived from an actual road test of two vehicles. Thermal shock is also inducedwhen vehicle electronic componentry at elevated temperature is exposed to sudden rain or roadsplash, or when it is moved from a heated shelter into a low (−40 °C/−40 °F) ambient temperatureenvironment.FIGURE 1—TIME INTO RUN-MINUTES VEHICLE WARM-UP CHARACTERISTICS The vehicle electronic component designer is urged to develop a systematic, analytic method for dealing with steady-state and transient thermal analysis. The application of many devices containing semiconductors is temperature limited. For this reason, the potential extreme operating conditions for each application must be scrutinized to avoid failure in the field.4.1.2E FFECT O N P ERFORMANCE—The damaging effects of thermal stock and thermal cycling include:4.1.2.1Cracking of printed circuit board or ceramic substrates.4.1.2.2Thermal stress of fatigue failures of solder joints.4.1.2.3Delamination of printed circuit boards and other interconnect system substrates.4.1.2.4Seal failures, including the breathing action of some assemblies, due to temperature-induced dimensionalvariation that permits intrusion of liquid or vapor borne contaminants.4.1.2.5Failure of circuit components due to direct mechanical stress caused by differential thermal expansion. 4.1.2.6The acceleration of chemical attack on interconnects, due to temperature rise, can result in progressivedegradation of circuit components, printed circuit board conductors, and solder joints.In addition to these phenomena, high temperature extremes can cause a malfunction by:4.1.2.7Exceeding the dissociation temperature of surrounding polymer or other packaging components.4.1.2.8Carbonizing of the packaging materials resulting in the eventual progressive failure of the associatedpassive or active components. This is possible in cases of excessively high temperature.

If temperature characterization has been performed according to 4.1.1.4 the measured temperature may be substituted for the values in Tables 1a and 1b for the purpose of this document. The test method of Figure 2a, a 24 h cycle, offers longer stabilization time and permits a convenient room ambient test period. Figure 2b, an 8 h cycle, provides more temperature cycles for a given test duration. It is applicable only to vehicle electronic components whose temperatures will reach stabilization in a shorter cycle time. Stabilization should be verified by actual measurements; thermocouples, etc. It is important that all parts of the test specimen be held at the specified maximum and minimum temperatures for at least 15 min, after reaching stability at that temperature. This is to maintain thermal or pressure stresses generated in the test specimen for a reasonable period of time. Figure 2c illustrates a test method for thermal shock.FIGURE 2A—24 HOUR THERMAL CYCLEFIGURE 2B—SHORT (8 HOUR) THERMAL CYCLEFIGURE 2C—THERMAL SHOCKTABLE 1A—ENVIRONMENTAL EXTREME SUMMARY HEAVY-DUTY CAB OVER ENGINE TRUCK/TRACTORLocation (1)1.Figure 3 - Pictorial Description of LocationsTemperaturesMinTemperatures OperatingTemperaturesMax (2)2.If temperature characterization has been performed according to 4.1.1.4, the measured temper-ature may be substituted for the values in Tables 1a and 1b for the purpose of this document.ENGINE1a Underhood - Lower −40 °C 56 °C over ambient −40 °F 100 °F over ambient 1b Underhood - Upper (3)3.Exhaust Manifold 816 °C 1500 °F−40 °C 222 °C over ambient −40 °F 400 °F over ambient 1c Underhood Bulkhead−40 °C 56 °C over ambient −40 °F 100 °F over ambientINTERIOR:2a Floor−40 °C 27 °C 66 °C −40 °F 80 °F 150 °F 2b Instrument Panel (4)4.Windshield (Daylight opening on top of instrument panel) Direct sunlight surface temperature 115 °C maximum 240 °F maximum−40 °C 24 °C 85 °C −40 °F 75 °F 185 °F 2c Headliner −40 °C 24 °C 79 °C −40 °F75 °F 175 °F2d Inside Door 3a Bunk Area−40 °C 24 °C 93 °C −40 °F 75 °F 200 °F 3b Storage Compartment−40 °C 24 °C 74 °C −40 °F 75 °F165 °F CHASSIS:4a Forward −40 °C 120 °C −40 °F 248 °F 4b Rear−40 °C 95 °C −40 °F 203 °FEXTERIOR:5a Under No Data 5b Back No Data 5c Door −40 °C 56 °C over ambient −40 °F 100 °F over ambient5d TopNo DataMaximum ambient temperature may reach 85 °C (185 °F)TABLE 1B—ENVIRONMENTAL EXTREME SUMMARY HEAVY-DUTYCONVENTIONAL ENGINE TRUCK/TRACTORLocation (1)1.Figure 3 - Pictorial Description of LocationsTemperaturesMinTemperatures OperatingTemperaturesMax (2)2.If temperature characterization has been performed according to 4.1.1.4, the measured temper-ature may be substituted for the values in Tables 1a and 1b for the purpose of this document.ENGINE1a Underhood - Lower −40 °C56 °C over ambient −40 °F100 °F over ambient 1b Underhood - Upper (3)3.Exhaust Manifold 816 °C 1500 °F−40 °C222 °C over ambient −40 °F400 °F over ambient 1c Underhood Bulkhead−40 °C56 °C over ambient −40 °F100 °F over ambientINTERIOR:2a Floor−40 °C 27 °C 75 °C −40 °F 80 °F 165 °F 2b Instrument Panel (4)4.Windshield (Daylight opening on top of instrument panel) Direct sunlight surface temperature 115 °C maximum 240 °F maximum−40 °C 24 °C 85 °C −40 °F 75 °F 185 °F 2c Headliner −40 °C 24 °C 79 °C −40 °F75 °F 175 °F2d Inside Door 3a Bunk Area−40 °C 24 °C 93 °C −40 °F 75 °F 200 °F 3b Storage Compartment−40 °C 24 °C 74 °C −40 °F 75 °F165 °F CHASSIS:4a Forward −40 °C 121 °C −40 °F 250 °F 4b Rear−40 °C 93 °C −40 °F 200 °FEXTERIOR:5a Under No Data 5b Back No Data 5c Door −40 °C 56 °C over ambient −40 °F 100 °F over ambient5d TopNo DataMaximum ambient temperature may reach 85 °C (185 °F)FIGURE 3—VEHICLE ENVIRONMENTAL ZONESSeparate or single test chambers may be used to generate the temperature environment described by the thermal cycles. By means of circulation, the air temperature should be held to within ±3 °C (±5 °F) at each of the extreme temperatures. The test specimens should be placed in a position, with respect to the airstream, where there is substantially no obstruction to the flow of air across the specimen. If two test specimens are used, care must be exercised to assure that the test samples are not subject to temperature transition rates greater than that defined in Figures 2a and 2b. Direct heat conduction from the temperature chamber heating element to the specimen should be minimized.NOTE—Airflow is a function of actual equipment location. Simulation of actual airflow and thermal transfer operation conditions should be considered in test design.Electrical performance should be measured under the expected operational minimum and maximum extremes of excitation, input and output voltage, and load at both the cold and hot temperature extremes.These measurements provide insight into electrical variations with temperature.4.1.3.2Thermal Shock Test—Thermal shock that can be expected in the vehicle environment is simulated by themaximum rates of change shown on the recommended thermal cycle profile portrayed in Figure 2c. The thermal shock test should begin with a 2 h presoak (−40 °C/−40 °F). The test item should be transferred to the hot chamber (85 °C/185 °F) where it should remain for 2 h, then transferred to the cold chamber (−40 °C/−40 °F) for 2 h. This cycle should be repeated at least five times. Each transfer should be accomplished in1 min or less.4.1.3.3Thermal Stress—Thermal stress is caused by repeat cycling through the thermal profiles of Figures 2a, b,and c. Many failures are due to fatigue. Slow cycles not repeated often will not demonstrate this. The number of cycles is a function of the vehicle electronic component application. Functional electrical testing during temperature transitions or immediately after temperature transitions, is a means of detecting poor electrical connections. The effect of thermal stress is similar to thermal shock but is caused by fatigue.NOTE—Although uniform oven temperatures are desirable, the only means of heat removal in some vehicle environments may be by special heat sinks or by free convection to surrounding air. Itmay be necessary to use conductive heat sinks with independent temperature controls in theformer case and baffles or slow speed air stirring devices in the latter to simulate such conditionsin the laboratory (see Section 3).4.1.4R ELATED S PECIFICATIONS—A generally accepted method for small part testing is defined in MIL-STD-202F,Method 107F, Thermal Shock, Method A or B, alternately MIL-STD-810D, Method 503.2. The short dwell periods at high temperature are satisfactory where temperature stabilization is verified by actual measurements.4.2Humidity4.2.1D EFINITIONS—(Contained in 4.2.2)4.2.2E FFECTS O N P ERFORMANCE—Both primary and secondary humidity sources exist in the vehicle. In additionto the primary source externally applied ambient humidity, the cyclic thermal-mechanical stresses caused by operational heat sources introduce a variable vapor pressure on the seals. Temperature gradients set up by these cycles can cause the dew point to travel from locations inside the equipment to the outside and back, resulting in additional stress on the seals.The actual relative humidity in the vehicle depends on factors such as operational heat sources, trapped vapors, air-conditioning, and cool-down effects. Recorded data indicates an extreme condition of 98% relative humidity at 38 °C (100 °F).Primary failure modes include corrosion of metal parts because of galvanic and electrolytic action, as well as corrosion caused by interaction with contaminated water and oxygen. Other failure modes include changes in electrical properties, surface bridging corrosion products and condensation between circuits, decomposition of organic matter because of attacking organisms (for example, mildew), and swelling of elastomers.4.2.3R ECOMMENDED T EST M ETHODS—The most common way to determine the effect of humidity on vehicleelectronic components is to over test and examine any failure for relevance to the more moderate actual operating conditions. The most common test is an 8 h active temperature humidity cycling under accelerated conditions (Figure 4a). A second test is an 8 to 24 h exposure at 103.4 kPa gage pressure (15 lbf/in2 gage) in a pressure vessel (Figure 4b). This is a quick and effective method for uncovering defects in plastic encapsulated semiconductors.FIGURE 4—RECOMMENDED HUMIDITY CYCLESAn optional frost condition may be incorporated during one of these humidity cycles. Electrical performance should be continuously monitored during these frost cycles to note erratic operation. Heat-producing and moving parts may require altering the frost condition portions of the cycle to allow a period of nonoperation induced frosting.4.2.4R ELATED S PECIFICATIONS—Many related humidity specifications are recommended for review and reference.The first: MIL-STD-810D, Method 507.2, Procedures I through III, Humidity, is a system-oriented test method. The second, a modified version of MIL-STD-202F, Method 103B, Humidity (Steady State), is intended to evaluate materials. The third, MIL-STD-202F, Method 106E, Moisture Resistance, is a procedure for testing small parts.4.3Salt Spray Atmosphere4.3.1D EFINITION—(Contained in 4.3.2)4.3.2E FFECT O N P ERFORMANCE—Vehicle electronic components mounted on the chassis, exterior, and underhoodare often exposed to a salt spray environment. In coastal regions, the salt is derived from sea breezes, and in colder climates, from road salt. Although salt spray is generally not found in the interior of the vehicle, it is advisable to evaluate the floor area for potential effects of saline solutions that were transferred from the outside environment by vehicle operators, passengers, and transported equipment.Failure modes due to salt spray are generally the same as those associated with water and water vapor.However, corrosion effects and alteration of conductivity are accelerated by the presence of saline solutions and adverse changes in pH.4.3.3R ECOMMENDED T EST M ETHODS—The recommended test method for measuring susceptibility of vehicleelectronic component to salt spray is the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) Standard Method of Salt Spray (Fog) Testing Number B 117-73. Similar test methods are found in MIL-STD-202, Method 101D, and MIL-STD-810D, Method 509.2.The test consists of exposing the vehicle electronic component to a solution of five parts salt to 95 parts water, atomized at a temperature of 35 °C (95 °F). The component being tested should be exposed to the salt spray for a period of 24 to 96 h. The actual exposure time must be determined by analysis of the specific mounting location. When the tests are concluded, the test specimens should be gently rinsed in clean running water, about 38 °C (100 °F), to remove salt deposits from the surface, and then immediately dried.Drying should be done with a stream of clean, compressed dry air at about 175.8 to 241.3 kPa gage pressure (35 to 40 lbf/in2 gage). The vehicle electronic component should be tested under nominal conditions of voltage and load throughout the test.NOTE—The Pascal (Pa) is the designated SI (metric) unit for pressure and stress. It is equivalent to 1 N/m2.Where leakage resistance values are critical, appropriate measurements under wet and dry conditions may be necessary.4.3.4R ELATED S PECIFICATIONS—ASTM B 117-73 is the recommended test method.4.4Immersion and Splash (Water, Chemicals, and Oils)4.4.1D EFINITION—Vehicle electronic component mounted on or in the vehicle are exposed to varying amounts ofwater, chemicals, and oil. A list of potential environmental chemicals and oils includes:Engine Oils and AdditivesTransmission OilRear Axle OilPower Steering FluidBrake FluidAxle GreaseWasher SolventGasolineDiesel FuelFuel AdditivesAlcoholAnti-Freeze Water MixtureDegreasersSoap and DetergentsSteamBattery AcidWater and SnowSalt WaterWaxesKeroseneFreonSpray PaintPaint StrippersEtherDust Control Agents (magnesium chloride)Moisture Control Agents (calcium chloride)Vinyl PlasticizersUndercoating MaterialMuriatic AcidAmmoniaThe modified chemical characteristics of these materials when degraded or contaminated should also be considered.4.4.2E FFECT O N P ERFORMANCE—Loss of the integrity of the container can result in corrosion or contamination ofvulnerable internal components. The chemical compatibility can be determined by laboratory chemical analysis. Devices such as sensors, that may be immersed in fluids for a long period, should be subjected to laboratory life tests in these fluids.4.4.3R ECOMMENDED T EST M ETHODS—The vehicle electronic component designer should first determine whetherthe parts must withstand complete immersion or splash, and which fluids are likely to be present in the application. Immersion and splash tests are generally performed following other environmental tests because this sequence tends to aggravate incipient defects in seals, seams, and bushings that might otherwise escape notice.Splash testing should be performed with the equipment mounted in a normal operating position with any drain holes open. Any integral parts, such as electrical connectors, shall be in place. Areas of the equipment not subject to splash testing may be sealed or otherwise isolated. The test apparatus should be designed to provide 100% coverage of the test surface using 80 degrees flat fan nozzles located 20 to 25 cm(10 to 12 in) from the test surface. The apparatus should provide a source pressure of approximately200kPa gauge (29 psig) with a flow rate of 2650 cm3/min (0.7 gal/min). The equipment should be exposed to the spray for 5 min of a 10 min period for a total of two cycles.During immersion testing, utilizing water as the fluid, the component ordinarily is not operated due to setup logistics and techniques of this test. In this test, the vehicle electronic component in its normal exterior package is immersed in tap water at about 18 °C (65 °F). The test sample should be completely covered by the water. The sample is first positioned in its normal mounting orientation. It remains in this position for 5min and then rotated 180 degrees. It should remain in this position for 5 min and then rotated 90 degrees about the other axis where it remains for 5 min. Immediately after removal, the sample should be exposed toa temperature below freezing until the entire mass is below freezing. The sample is then returned to roomtemperature, air dried, functionally tested, and inspected for damage.More severe tests such as combined temperature, pressure, and continuous fluid contact must be considered for equipment subjected to extreme environments; for example, exposure to coolant water, brake fluid, and transmission oil. Caution must be used in specifying combined tests because they may be unrealistically severe for many applications.4.4.4R ELATED S PECIFICATIONS—None4.5Steam Cleaning and Pressure Washing4.5.1D EFINITION—(Contained in 4.5.2)4.5.2E FFECTS O N P ERFORMANCE—The intense heat from cleaning sprays and the caustic nature of chemicalagents used in washing solutions create a severe environment for devices and associated wiring and connectors mounted in the engine, chassis, and exterior areas. This exposure can cause a degradation of insulation and seals as well as cracking of vinyl connectors and component packaging. High pressure wash-down may produce results similar to salt spray in many truck interior.4.5.3R ECOMMENDED T EST M ETHOD—The electronic component under test shall be mounted in its normaloperating position with drain holes, if used, open. If an integral connector is used, it shall be mated. The test apparatus should be designed to provide 100% coverage of the exposed surface of the electronic component using flat fan spray nozzles located 20 to 30 cm (7.9 to 11.8 in) away. This apparatus should provide a source pressure of approximately 1400 kPa gage (203 lbf/in2 gage) with a flow rate of 9460 cm3/min (150gal/h). For the steam cleaning, the water temperature should be at 93 °C (200 °F). The test item should be exposed to the spray for 3 s of a 6 s period for a total of 375 cycles.A sample test device is illustrated in Figure 5.。
