Environmental Stress Testing

Since 1973, Elite has been providing comprehensive environmental stress testing services to complement our extensive EMC test capabilities. Having access to both services under one roof translates into a convenient, time saving, and highly efficient validation program.

Elite has a multitude of equipment sets to simulate vibration, shock, temperature, and humidity environments. We also provide capabilities to replicate numerous specialty environments ranging from fungus and dust to solar radiation and explosive atmospheres.

For large projects, Elite can conduct environmental stress tests in parallel with EMC testing or other environmental tests in order to compress testing time and complete the work in a much shorter period.

Typical Environmental Stress Testing Specifications

• MIL-STD-810, MIL-STD 202, RTCA DO-160
• SAEJ1455, GM, Ford, Chrysler, Nissan, Toyota
• IEC 68, IEC 529, NEMA
• NEBS, ASTM, ANSI

One-Stop Service

Saves Time and Cost, while Easing Effort Associated with Test Management

• Witness all testing at one site
• Single point of contact for all test services
• Test item, wiring harnesses, and support equipment are controlled at one location
• Perform multiple tests at one site to compress test program duration

A2LA Accredited, DSCC Approved

• To assure confidence in Elite's test results and to have test data readily accepted, Elite has its ISO 17025 accreditation through A2LA. Request a copy of our scope of accreditation 1787.02.
• Elite is recognized by the Defense Supply Center Columbus (DSCC) and is approved for
testing QPL listed electronic components.
