NOTE-1 - Temperature severity is indicated as combined severity of temperature (cold) and temperature (dry heat). For instance, T55/125 would indicate 55" C as the severity of temperature (cold) and 125 C as the severity of temperature (dry heat). NOTE- 2 - The surface temperature of heat generatiag components will exceed the ambient temperature. Therefore, a component when dissipating power in an ambient temperature of 100 C, will have a surf temperature of X deg C which will cause the surface temperature of the component to become 100 C + X degc. The relevant component specification may limit the surface temperature for the purpose of rating, at any specified air pressure. 6. COMPONENT CLASSIFICATION
6.1 The relevant component specification shall specify the severities of the applicable environmental tests. 7. STANDARD TEST SEQUENCE
7.1 The tests shall normally be applied in a specified sequence conforming to specified test groups or components as shown in Appendix "C'. Where deviations from the sequence are justified, these will be indicated in the relevant component specification. 8

8.1 The total number of components which shall be tested and the number of components in each group shall be detailed in the relevant component specification. 9. MEASUREMENTS
9.1 Measurements relating to characteristics of a component are made initially, at specified intervals during the tests and at the conclusion of the tests. This is to establish any change in the characteristics due to the environmental condition applied during the tests. 9.2 Final measurements made at the end of one test may be taken as the initial measurements for the subsequent test. 9.3 Measurements on components may be made before the expiry of the full recovery period, in case of failure; the measurement shall be repeated after the specified recovery period (See 15.1). 10. SEALING TEST
10.1 Sealing test is not included in Appendix C' as it is regarded as an initial, intermediate or final measurement. The relevant component specification shall, therefore, specify in which test group and at' what stage, this is to be performed. 11. DUST TEST
11.1 Dust test is not included in Appendix "C' as it is considered as a special test for components. Where its application is warranted, the relevant component specification shall include this test suitably in the sequence.

16.1 Unless otherwise specified, components shall be mounted in various orientations. The orientations adopted shall be recorded. Particular attention shall be paid, especially in the case of heat dissipating components, to the spacing between them. The total volume occupied by the components shall be small in relation to the effective volume of the working space of the chamber. Necessary connections to the test instruments and power supplies shall be made before commencing the test. 17. INSULATION RESISTANCE MEASUREMENT
17.1 Measurement of the insulation resistance of certain components may require the use of special techniques such as : 17.1.1 Guard Rincg - A guard ring method shall preferably be used whenever it is necessary to discriminate between leakage through the insulation and leakage due to surface moisture. 17.1.2 Removal of Surface Moisture by an Air Blast - Where the test to be applied within 15 minutes after removal from a damp heat chamber involves measurement of insulation resistance, moisture on the external surfaces may make the measurement unstable. A blast of air of relative humidity not greater than 75 per cent at normal temperature may then be used if allowed in the relevant component specification, for the minimum time required to remove visible surface moisture. 18. VOLTAGE PROOF TEST
18.1 This test shall be carried out with a current limiter in the supply circuit, such that the current resulting from a short circuit of the component under test shall not exceed 2 mA or any other value specified in the relevant component specification. 19. WORKING TEST
19.1 The working test to be applied to a component shall be specified in the relevant component specification.

JSS 50101: 1996 (Revision No. 1) Reaffirmed 2001 TEST NUMBER-4 CORROSIVE ATMOSPHERE (SALT MIST) 1. OBJECT
1.1 The object of this test is to determine the suitability of metals and protective coatings (metallic and non-metallic) of components when subjected to a salt laden atmosphere. 2. TEST CHAMBER
2.1 The chamber and all its accessories shall be made of such materials that are not themselves affected by the salt laden atmosphere or do not give rise to electrolytic corrosion, when in contact with each other or the components. 2.2 The chamber shall consist of a lower part and an upper part connected together. The components shall be placed in the upper part and the mist shall be produced, in the lower part so that the spray does not directly impinge on the components. Components shall be so arranged that no condensate can drip on them and the spray circulates freely about all components to the same degree. The liquid that comes in contact with the components during exposure shall not return to the salt solution reservoir. The chamber shall be vented. 2.3 The working space of the chamber shall be capable of maintaining the temperature of 35 C 2 degC. Satisfactory methods for controlling the temperature accurately shall be by housing the apparatus in a properly controlled constant temperature room, by thoroughly insulating the apparatus and preheating the air to the proper temperature prior to atomization, and by jacketing the apart us and controlling the temperature of the water or the air used. The use of immersion heaters within the chamber shall be prohibited. 2.4 The conditions maintained at all part g of working space shall be such that a suitable fog collecting receptacle placed at any point in the exposure zone shall collect from 0.5 to 3.0 ml of solution per hour for each 80 cm' of horizontal collecting area (10 cm dia) based on an average run of at least 16 hours. At least two clean fog collecting receptacles shall be used, one placed near any nozzle and the other placed as far as possible from all nozzles. The receptacles shall be fastened to ensure that they are not shielded by the components and that no drops of solution from components or other sources are collected. With nozzle made of material non-reactive to the salt solution, suitable atomization has been obtained in chambers having a volume of less than 0.34 m3- with the following conditions: (a) Nozzle pressure from 83 to 124 k Pa.

When using chambers considerably in excess of 0.34 m^3 the above conditions may have to be modified in order to meet the requirement for operating conditions. 2.5 The spray shall be produced by suitable atomizers employing compressed air. The compressed air shall be free from all impurities such as oil and dirt. Means shall be provided to humidify and warm the compressed air 9.5 required to meet the operating conditions. The air pressure shall be suitable to produce a finely divided dense fog with the atomizer or atomizers used. To insure against clogging, of the atomizer by salt deposition, the air shall have a relative humidity of at least 85 per cent Eor the 20 per cent solution and between 95 and 98 per cent for the 5 per cent solution, at the point of release from the nozzle. A satisfactory method is to pass the air in very fine bubbles through a tower containing heated water. The temperature of the water should be 35 C, and often higher. The permissible temperature increases with increasing volume of air and with decreasing heat insulation of the chamber and temperature of its surroundings. It should not exceed a value above which an excess of moisture is introduced into the chamber (for example, 44 C at an air pressure of 85 kPa), or a value which makes it impossible to meet the requirements for operating temperature. 2.6 The salt solution used shall either be 5 or 20 per cent. The 5 per cent salt solution shall, however, be preferred, unless the relevant component specification specifies otherwise. 2.7 The distilled water used for making the salt solution shall not contain more than 200 parts per million of total solids. 2.8 The composition and characteristics of the salt solution shall be as stated in Table 4-1.

Condensation shall occur on the surface of the components during this temperature rise period. NOTE - The condition that condensation on the surface of the components shall occur implies that the surface temperature of the components is below the dew point of the working space of the chamber. This will necessitate that the construction and size of the chamber are adequately related to the size and thermal capacity of the components. 3.1.5 The temperature shall then be maintained at 55 C 2 deg C until completion of 16 hours 30 minutes after the start of the cycle (see Fig. 5-2). 3.1.6 During this period the relative humidity shall be between 90 and 96 per cent. For the first and the last 15 minute periods, it shall be not less than 90 per cent (see Fig. 5-2). Condensation must not occur during the last 15 minutes. 3.1.7 The temperature she-ill then fall to 25 C 2 deg C within 3 to 6 hours. The rate of fall for the first one and a half hours shall be such that if maintained as indicated in Fig. 5-2; it would result in a temperature" of 25 C 2 deg C being attained in 3 hours 15 minutes. During this period the relative humidity shall be not less than 95 per cent, except for the first 15 minutes, when it shall be not less than 90 per cent (see Fig. 5-2). 3.1.8 The temperature shall then be maintained at 25 C 2 deg C with not less than 95 -per cent relative humidity until the cycle of 24 hours is completed (see Fig. 52). - This shall constitute one dam heat cycle. 23

(b) Procedure .2 - This shall consist of immersing the components in a liquid maintained at a high temperature. 3.2 3.2.1 Testing Procedure 1
3.2.1.1 The components shall be immersed in- the liquid bath with their seals uppermost. 3.2.1.2 The air pressure inside the chamber containing the liquid bath shall then be reduced to a value of 1.33 kPa within one minute and shall be maintained at this pressure for I minute, unless repetitive bubbling has been observed at any intermediate pressure. 3.2.1.3 Components having seals on more than one face shall be tested in accordance with 3.2.1.1 and 3.2.1.2 with each face in the uppermost position. 3.2.1.4 There shall be no leakage as determined by repetitive bubbles emerging from the components. NOTE - It is essential that the low air pressure be attained promptly so that initial frothing may clear rapidly and not mask the bubbles due to leak from the components. Holes as small as 2 um in diameter will be indicated by this method. However, when the air space within the component is small or the leakage large, the bubbles may disappear in the first frothing. 3.2.2 Procedure 2
3.2.2.1 The components which shall be at a temperature between 15 C and 35 C shall be immersed in the liquid bath maintained at the specified high temperature for I minute with their seals uppermost. 3.2.2.2 Components having seals on more than one face shall be tested in accordance with 3.2.2.1 with each face in the uppermost position. 94

3.2.1.1 The wire terminations of components shall be immersed in such a manner as to leave a clearance of 6 mm from the point where the termination emerges from the body or cap of the component. 3.2.1.2 The tag terminations of components shall be immersed to a depth of. 3 mm beyond .the place intended for the connection of wires referred to the free end or one half of' the tag length, whichever islets. 3.2.1.3 The terminations shall be immersed for a period of 5 to 10 seconds in the flux which is maintained between 15 C and 35 C" and drained for 5 to 20 seconds before solder dip. 3.2.1.4 The dross and burnt flux; shall be skimmed from the surface of the molten solder. The molten solder shall then be stirred with a clean, stainless steel paddle to assure that the solder bath is at uniform temperature between 240 C'and 250 C. The surface of the molten solder shall be skimmed again just prior to the immersion of the terminations. The fluxed terminations shall then be mechanically immersed at a rate of 20 to 30 mm per second into the solder bath. 3.2.1.5 The terminations shall be allowed to remain in the solder bath for 4.5 to 5.5 seconds at the end of which period they shall be withdrawn mechanically .from the solder bath at a rate of 20 to 30 mm per second. 3.2.1.6 After the dipping process, the terminations shall be allowed to air cool At ambient to 38 C or- lower prior to exposure to the cleaning solvent. The residual flux shall be removed by dipping the terminations in clean Isopropyl Alcohol if necessary, a soft cloth moistened with clean 91 per cent isopropyl Alcohol shall be used to remove all remaining flux. 3.2.1.7 The terminations shall then be examined under 10 power magnification. It shall be seen that a minimum of 95 per cent of the solderable surface of the terminations is covered by 111
JSS 50101: 1996 (Revision No. 1) Reaffirmed 2001 continuous coating of solder and the pinholes and voids are not concentrated in one area. In the case of wrapped lugs, tabs or wire (see 3.1.6), the criteria for acceptable solderability is, as follows : (a) Ninety five per cent of the total length of fillet, between the standard wrap wire and the termination is tangent to the surface of the termination being tested and free from pinholes, non wetting or dewetting. (b) There is no ragged or interrupted line at the point: of tangency between the fillet and the termination under test.

3. 3.1
TEST PROCEDURE General
3.1.1 A vibration severity is given by the combination of frequency range, vibration amplitude and endurance duration. The relevant component specification shall choose the appropriate severity from those listed in the table under 2.1 and Fig. 23-1. 121
JSS 50101: 1996 (Revision No. 1) Reaffirmed 2001 3.1.2 A sweep which is the traverse of the specific frequency range once in each direction shall be continuous and logarithmic and the sweep rate shall be approximately one octave per minute. Whilst searching for resonances, the sweep rate may be decreased or the sweeping stopped temporarily, if necessary. Undue dwell time shall be avoided. 3.1.3 Measurements of frequency for resonance determination shall be made with a tolerance of 0.5 per cent or 0.5 Hz whichever is greater. Frequency tolerance in other cases shall be I Hz for values up to 50 Hz and 2 per cent for values above 50 Hz. 3.1.4 This test shall be divided into the following three distinct stages for the all the procedures specified under 3.1.7 except for procedure 5. 3.1.4.1 Initial Resonance Search - The component shall be vibrated over the whole range of specified .frequencies at the specified amplitude. It is checked functionally and examined for any frequency dependent effects such as mechanical resonances and malfunctioning. These vibration characteristics as well as the frequencies and amplitudes at which they occur are noted. The initial resonance search is carried out for information only for procedures I and 3 and is always required for procedures 2 and 4. 3.1.4.2 used. Endurance testing - One or more of the following procedure shall be (a) Endurance testing by sweeping -. Endurance testing by sweeping is carried out at specified amplitude, frequency range and duration. (b) Endurance testing at resonance frequencies - Endurance testing at resonance frequencies is carried out at resonance frequencies of specified amplitude for a specified duration. (c) Endurance testing at predetermined frequencies - Endurance testing at one or more specified frequencies (or narrow band of frequencies) is carried out at specified amplitude for specified duration. 3.1.4.3 Final resonance search - After the endurance testing, the component is retested functionally and re-examined for vibration characteristics as in the initial resonance search. The frequencies for each effect, determined in the initial and later in the final resonance searches are compared. The final resonance search is carried out for information only. 3.1.5 The component shall be vibrated in three mutually perpendicular axes in turn, which should be so chosen that faults are most likely to be revealed. 3.1.6 The three test stages (see 3.1.4) shall be performed in sequence in the same direction and repeated for the other directions. The relevant component specification 122
JSS 50101: 1996 (Revision No. 1) Reaffirmed 2001 may, however, vary this sequence so as to allow the initial -resonance search to be carried out in more than one direction before starting the endurance testing. 3.1.7 One of the following procedures shall be used.
3.1.7.1 Procedure I - This is the preferred procedure and shall consist of the following sequence of testing: (a) Initial resonance search. (b) Endurance' testing by sweeping. (c) Final resonance search. 3.1.7.2 Procedure 2. - This procedure shall consist of the following sequence of testing: (a) (b) (c) Initial resonance search. Endurance testing at resonance frequencies. Final resonance search.
NOTE - This procedure is suitable for components with a very small number of resonance frequencies. The existence of these resonance frequencies will be found during the initial resonance search. 3.1.7.3 testing: Procedure 3 -' This procedure shall consist of the following sequence of (a) Initial resonance search.
(b) Endurance testing by predetermined frequencies. (c) Final resonance search.
NOTE - Endurance testing by this procedure is needed for components when the vibration environment encountered in Service is known to impose significant stresses at dominant frequencies only. 3.1.7.4 testing : Procedure 4. This procedure shall consist of the following sequence of (a) (b) (c) (d) Initial resonance search. Endurance testing by sweeping. Endurance testing at resonance frequencies. Final resonance search.
NOTE - This procedure is applicable when a component has a few very dominant resonance frequencies in addition to many less dominant ones. In such circumstances there may be a need for endurance conditioning by 123
JSS 50101: 1996 (Revision No. 1) Reaffirmed 2001 sweeping to be supplemented by endurance conditioning at the dominant resonance frequencies. 3.1.7.5 Procedure 5 - This procedure shall consist of endurance testing by sweeping. NOTE - This procedure is specifically applicable to very small components where it is known that there are no resonances within the specified frequency range. 3.2 Mounting of Components
3.2.1 The component shall be secured to the vibration generator either directly or by means of a fixture as specified in 3.2.2 to 3.2.6. 3.2.2 Mounting fixtures shall be such as to enable the component to be vibrated along the specified axes for testing (see 3.1.5). The relevant component specification should state, if significant, the maximum level of magnetic interference to which the component may be subjected. 3.2.3 Components having a unique method of mounting shall be so mounted.
3.2.4 The mounting of components not provided with unique means of mounting shall be such that the test conditions applied should dynamically load the body and/or terminations. Either the body and the terminations, or the terminations only, may be clamped, as specified by the relevant component specification. 3.2.5 Components with axial terminations weighing less than 15 grams shall be secured to rigid pillars leaving 5 to 8 mm between the points of emergence of the terminations and the pillars. Similar components weighing 15 grams 'and more shall be clamped so as to avoid any stress on the terminations. 3.2.6 Components with radial terminations and components having unusual mass distribution shall be mounted as specified in the relevant component specification. 3.2.7 External connections made to the components for power supply and measurements shall add a minimum of mass and place a minimum of restraint on the components. 3.3 Testing
3.3.1 The relevant component specification shall choose the required procedure (see 3.1.7) for testing. 3.3.2 Initial resonance search (see 3.1.4.1) shall be carried out at the appropriate vibration severity (see 3.1.1). If found necessary, for a more precise determination of 124
JSS 50101: 1996 (Revision No. 1) Reaffirmed 2001 the resonance characteristics, the vibration amplitude may, however, be decreased to any convenient value. 3.3.3 During the intial resonance search, the frequencies at which either deterioration in performance or mechanical resonances occur shall be noted. 3.3.4 The components shall be functioning during the initial resonance search if so required by the relevant component specification. 3.3.5 Where the mechanical vibration characteristics can not be assessed satisfactorily because of the loading of the component an additional initial resonance search may be carried out with the components not loaded. 3.3.6 The endurance testing (see 3.1.4.2) shall then be carried out as appropriate to the procedure selected (see 3.3.1) 3.3.7 Where components are mounted on vibration isolators, the relevant component specification shall state whether or not the fundamental resonance frequencies of the components on vibration isolators should be chosen for the endurance testing. 3.3.8 The endurance testing time (see Table 23-1) shall be equally divided amongst the resonance/predetermined frequencies and/or axes unless otherwise specified in the relevant component specification. 3.3.9 The components shall be loaded and their performance checked during the endurance testing, if so required by the relevant component specification. 3.3.10 Final resonance search (see 3.1.4.3) shall then be carried out at the same amplitude and in the same manner as the initial resonance search. 3.3.11 The relevant component specification shall state the action to be taken if any shift in resonance frequency or frequencies has been noticed in the final resonance search. 4.

See Fig. 24-1 and Fig. 24-2), when the test item or a substitute equivalent mass, is appropriately secured to vibration machine. NOTE: The equalization of an electro dynamic vibration machine system is the adjustment of the gain of the electrical amplifier and control system so that ratio of the out put vibration amplitude to the input signal amplitude is a -constant value (or given values) through out the required frequency spectrum. 2.1.3 Control and analysis of vibration
2.1.3.1 Spectral density curves - The out put of the vibration machine shall be graphically presented as power spectral density versus frequency.

For this application it is expressed as G^2/f where G'2/f. is the mean square value of acceleration expressed in gravitational units per number of cycles of filter bandwidth. The spectral density curves are usually plotted either on a 128
JSS 50101: 1996 (Revision No. 1) Reaffirmed 2001 logarithmic scale or in units of decibels (dB). The number of decibels is defined by the equation: G/f G/ \/f dB = 10 log ________ = 20 log ________ G r/f is: [ [ G = [ rms [ [ f2 [ g df [ ----[ f f1 ]1/2 ] ] ] ] Gr/ \/f

TABLE A-l SALTS FOR SATURATED SOLUTIONS (Clause A-2) RELATIVE HUMIDITY {%) 48 to 52 63 to 67 73 to 77 90 to 95 95 to 98 TEMPERATURE RANGE (C) 22 to 26 18 to 22 15 to 35 38 to 42 24 to 30 SALTS Calcium nitrite (Ca(NO2)2 4H2O) Sodium nitrite (NaNO^2) Sodium chloride (NaCI) Potassium di hydrogen phosphate (KH2PO4) Potassium sulphate (K2SO4)
A-3 The saturated salt solution shall be exposed so that maximum surface is in contact with the air in the chamber, for example, by covering the floor of the chamber with a tray containing the saturated salt solution. There shall be an excess of solid salt in the liquid to ensure that the solution remains saturated. The surface- of the liquid shall be free from any crust or film of grease, dirt etc. A-4 To ensure uniform conditions throughout the chamber, a fan shall circulate air over the surface of the saturated solution and around the components. Care shall be taken to allow free exposure of all the components to the conditions in the chamber. A-5 If the velocity of the air is greater than 3 m/s, the relative humidity may be measured by wet and dry bulb thermometers. As an alternative to wet and dry bulb thermometers which require a known air velocity, a dew point thimble may be inserted into the chamber and used when the fan is not working. In either method, a viewing window is. necessary to avoid opening the chamber.

JSS 50101: 1996 (Revision No. 1) Reaffirmed 2001 APPENDIX B (Clause 2.4 of Test Number-ISA) B. B.l TEST SET UP FOR TESTING STATIC UND OPERATIONAL SEALS PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
B.l.l The component shall be mounted on the lid (of adequate thickness) of small sealed test chamber which is fitted with an air inlet nozzle, air line and valve (see Fig B-l) B.l.2 Air shall then be pumped into the sealed component under test or test chamber, until the desired air pressure for the test is reached. This set up shall then be submerged in a liquid at the specified temperature, If the component leaks, a stream of air bubbles will be observed escaping from it. B.l. 3 A transparent, funnel shall be fitted with a long tube, the end of which can be sealed by a tap. The funnel shall then be submerged in the liquid with the tap open. Liquid shall then be drawn up the tube until it is filled and the tap is then closed. The tube shall be held in a vertical position and the mouth of the funnel moved over the component so 'that the stream of air bubbles can be collected. The transparent funnel or collector enables this to be done quickly. The air bubbles rise and travel up the neck of the funnel into the tube and collect at the top causing a depression of the liquid column. This set up is shown in Fig. B-2. B-l.4 The rate of depression of the liquid meniscus is a measure of the leakage rate 'and can be measured by means of a calibrated scale and a timing mechanism, the air leakage rate being expressed in the form of cubic capacity per unit time. B-l. 5 The apparatus operates over a wide temperature range provided suitable liquids are chosen which at low temperature have a low viscosity and at high temperature remain stable almost to boiling point. Stability here means the non-escape of gases (or other movement which would mask the escape of air bubbles) and low volatility. Alcohol is a suitable liquid for the low temperature tests and paraffin for the high temperature tests. B.2 OPERATION
B.2.1 The liquid in the container shall be first brought to the required temperature of the test and constantly stirred in order to keep temperature of the liquid uniform during the period of the test. B.2.2 The air in the test chamber shall be at the requisite pressure which the test condition demands. The test chamber shall then be carefully immersed in the liquid, the location of any leak being immediately disclosed by a train of air bubbles rising to 136
JSS 50101: 1996 (Revision No. 1) Reaffirmed 2001 the surface. A suitable time interval shall be allowed for the component to attain temperature stability. B.2.3 The funnel of the collector shall be placed in the liquid with its mouth submerged and some of the liquid is drawn up the tube, by suction through a flask. B.2.4 The funnel end shall then be moved over the stream(s) of air bubbles so that they are all collected and rise up the neck into the tube. Care must be taken to keep the collector tube vertical and also to maintain the depth of immersion of the mouth of the funnel at the same constant level as is used for calibration purposes. B.2.5 The tube of the collector is calibrated in cubic centimetres and any leakage rate can be calculated by measuring the depression of the liquid meniscus during a known interval of time. The result can be readily expressed in cubic centimetres per hour. B.3 CALIBRATION AND ACCURACY
B.3.1 The collector can be calibrated by drawing up a quantity of liquid into the tube and sealing off. A hypodermic syringe shall then be used as an air pump and known volumes of air shall be injected, in steps, through the liquid into the mouth of the funnel. At each step, the level of the displaced liquid shall be marked on the tube, or its scale until a suitable complete scale is obtained. During calibration, the mouth of the funnel shall be kept at a constant depth of immersion. Otherwise, a small calibration error may occur due to a change in pressure in the column caused by any variations in the head of liquid. B.3.2 The air-leakage rate can be measured at any temperature or pressure, provided the whole of the tube and scale is maintained at the specified temperature. Normally, leakage rates shall be expressed at the laboratory ambient temperature and pressure and this can readily be done because the collected air at the top of the tube quickly attains the laboratory ambient temperature. B.3.3 The overall accuracy of measurement of leakage rates depends on the individual accuracy of measurement of a number of factors, the chief among them being : (a) The air pressure. (b) The stability of the air pressure (c) The volume of air in the collector tube. (d) The time taken to attain a specified volume. (e) The head or pressure of the liquid in the collector. (f) The temperature of the liquid. B.3.4 The errors introduced by the measurement of pressure (a) are directly proportional to the leakage rate and these errors, together with the errors introduced 137
JSS 50101: 1996 (Revision No. 1) Reaffirmed 2001 by the measurement of temperature (f), can be assumed to be the overall accuracy of the apparatus since the errors introduced by (b), (c), (d) and (e) will normally be very small compared with (a) and can, therefore, be ignored.
