Maintainability for environmental testing equipment |
|
Abstract
There are three basic types of maintainability
for environmental testingequipment: preventive
maintenance, corrective maintenance, and predictivemaintenance.
This report will introduce the Espec approach. |

"Easy-to-read Features of environmental testing (Part2) |
|
Abstract
Even the field of reliability has its own examples of short-term cyclical fashions. The
latest trendy topic is " lead-free soldering technology " . Naturally, the field of
environmental testing has not escaped this vogue, and has been drawn into the
discussion. The consensus has come to regard the topic as a familiar topic taken up for
human coexistence with technology. However, we should not be convinced too easily.
Past experience is replete with examples of hoped-for improvements turning out to make
matters worse. Merely because something has been initiated by quality control
technology, or by reliability technology, does not automatically produce reliability. I
believe that the constant topics of reliability should be pursued to the utmost by bold and
careful actions to eradicate the lack of understanding. |

Easy-to-read Features of environmental testing (Part1) |
|
Abstract
This report is the first of a two-part series that, as the title indicates, is meant to cover
the main features of environmental testing without getting bogged down in overly
difficult aspects of the subject. Although intended to be easily read, we must be wary of
simplifying the subject to the point of making it meaningless. Perhaps we could say that
the level of this overview is " easy to read, with some difficulties " , and presented as a
column. The discussion may seem at times to jump from topic to topic. |

Fundamental Concepts of Environmental Testing Techniques in Electricity and Electronics
Part3:Testing standards |
|
Abstract
In this issue, we are going to consider various items within public environmental
testing standards. We shall take the IEC as an example, considering its structure
and its process leading up to the establishment of testing standards, the characteristics
of those standards, their current applications, and a summary of environmental
classifications.

Fundamental Concepts of Environmental Testing Techniques in Electricity and Electronics
Part2:Fundamental concepts of the standard condition and movement of water or moisture for performing temperature and humidity tests |
|
Abstract
Part 2 in this issue discusses standard environmental values for environmental
testing, and also analyzes the thermal stress and humidity stress related to humidity
testing. Finally, the article explains the physical mechanism by which the moisture
content in the test environment penetrates the specimen. |

What is Environmental Testing ?
|
|
Abstract
This series on environmental testing is for persons doing the environmentae testing as well as for those who
have heard of " environmental testing " but aren't sure what it's all about.
Our greatest hope for this series is that each and every issue be enjoyed by such
readers and that it lead to the ability to better carry out their duties. We are presenting
" What is Environmental Testing? " and " Temperature Testing " as the first articles in the
series, to be followed by " Humidity Testing " and " Temperature Cycle Testing " . We hope
you enjoy the articles. |
