GRAYHILL TEST LABS
For physical and environmental stresses, our equipment and expertise permit fast and accurate verification to MIL-STD 202 and 810, IEC 68 and 60529, RTCA-DO160, ISO 16750, NEMA, UL, and ANSI/ASEA EP455 standards for the following tests:
– Operating temperature
– Thermal cycling
– Storage temperature
– Thermal shock
– Altitude (barometric pressure)
– UV resistance
– Seal/ingress protection: moisture, dirt, and dust
– Humidity
– Drop testing
– Salt fog
– Immersion
– Resistance to solvents
– Solderability & soldering heat
– Terminal strength
– Vibration
– Mechanical shock
– Shipping integrity
– Flammability
MECHANICAL TEST LABS
Our accelerated life testers for optical and Hall-effect rotary encoders test millions of cycles in a relatively short period of time. Unlike some competitors, the mechanical and electrical life specifications for Grayhill encoders define each cycle as a full rotation of the shaft and the return to its original position. Other mechanical rigs test:
- Vibration
- Front and side-impact
- Abrasion on actuator
ENVIRONMENTAL TEST LABS
Grayhill environmental test chambers can simulate many environmental conditions, including various temperatures, humidity levels and rapid cycling of these conditions. Other environmental tests include:
- Thermal shock
- Liquid seal
- Dust seal
- UV exposure
- Salt spray resitance
- Chemical resistance
ELECTRICAL TEST LABS
With our in-house electrical test labs, Grayhill has the ability to test products against a wide range of electrical conditions, including:
- Electro-Magnetic Compatibility (EMC)
- Electro-Static Discharge (ESD)
- Electro-Magnetic Interference (EMI)
- Electrical Noise
- Power Interruption
