TESTING AND SUPPORT

Samtec's products are tested to or beyond industry standards to ensure quality and performance in industrial applications.

New initiative to test products beyond typical standards for extreme applications

SEVERE ENVIRONMENT TESTING

Severe Environment Testing is a Samtec initiative to test our products beyond typical industry standards and specifications, many set forth by common requirements for rugged industries. Several of our products undergo additional testing to ensure they are more than suitable for industrial, military, automotive, space, and other extreme applications.

TESTING INCLUDES:

VITA™ 47.1 Module Insertions
VITA™ 47.3 Humidity
VITA™ 47.1 Operating Shock Class OS2
VITA™ 47.1 Vibration Class VS3

Exceeds VITA™ 47.1 Temperature Cycling Class C4
Exceeds VITA™ 47.1 Non-Operating Temperature Class C4
VITA™ 47.1 Electrostatic Discharge Resistance
Exceeds VITA™ 47.1 Altitude for DWV

Samtec's SET products are approved for NASA Class D missions that require high-reliability, quick-turn and cost-effective solutions for LEO satellites, SmallSats, CubeSats and other space exploration applications.

Samtec also utilizes NASA outgassing data to determine if certain products meet NASA's ASTM E595-77/84/90 test requirements. Visit outgassing.nasa.gov for data.
