MIL-STD-202 FG Tests

MIL-STD-202 (F,G) testing establishes uniform methods for testing electronic and electrical component parts, including basic environmental testing and physical and electrical testing to determine resistance to the harmful effects of natural elements and conditions surrounding military operations.

For the purpose of this standard, the term "component parts" includes items such as capacitors, resistors, switches, relays, transformers, inductors and others. This standard is intended to be applied only to small component parts weighing up to 300 pounds or having a root mean square test voltage of up to 50.000 volts, unless specifically stated otherwise.

The test methods described here are designed to serve several purposes:

• To specify the appropriate conditions that can be obtained in the laboratory that gives test results equivalent to the actual service conditions available in the field and to obtain the repeatability of the test results. The tests described here should not be construed as an accurate representation of actual service operation in any geographic location, since the only real test for operation at a particular location is a true service test at that point.
• All test methods of similar character appearing in various common or single-service electronic and electrical component parts specifications in a standard, test methods suitable for use in various specifications, and component parts will be tested under some of the currently standardized test procedures, especially temperatures, barometric pressures, etc. . Recognized extreme environments such as Consolidating in this way, these methods can be kept uniform, resulting in the preservation of equipment, hours of operation and testing facilities. In achieving these goals, each of the general tests needs to be made adaptable to a wide range of electronic and electrical component parts.
• The test methods described here for environmental, physical, and electrical testing shall, where applicable, also apply to parts not covered by an approved military specification, military form standard, specification sheet, or drawing.

MIL-STD-202 is one of the most important regulatory standards for defense contractors today. This document, which governs the testing protocol for all products and system components with printed circuit boards, sets out clear guidelines to follow if you want to bring your product to this lucrative market.

EUROLAB has an advanced network of laboratories to meet the testing needs of defense contractors and other customers. Our experienced in-house engineers provide assistance throughout all phases of the product development cycle, from assessing your legal requirements and determining the appropriate test sequence, to guiding you through compliance with both national and international standards.
