ANNEX 1. CLIMATIC TESTS
C.1-4 HIGH TEMPERATURE CYCLE.
Perform High Temperature testing in accordance with MIL-STD-810, Method 501 using the
following test parameters:
a.
Munition Configuration: Unpackaged munitions when applicable.
b. Test Level: MIL-STD-810, Method 501, Table 501.6-III `High Temperature Cycle
Category A1' Induced Conditions (Temperatures: +33 °C to +71 °C).
c.
Test Duration: 28 diurnal (24-hour) cycles to be applied.
C.1-5 SOLAR RADIATION.
Perform Solar Radiation testing in accordance with MIL-STD-810, Method 505, Procedure I using
the following test parameters:
a.
Munition Configuration: Unpackaged munitions when applicable.
b. Test Level: MIL-STD-810, Method 505, Procedure I, Figure 505.6-1 `Cycling test',
Category A1 (Temperatures: 32 °C to 49 °C. Irradiance: 0 W/m2 to 1120 W/m2.).
c.
Test Duration: Seven 24-hour solar cycles to be applied.
C.1-6 THERMAL SHOCK.
Expose all munitions to the high- and low-temperature phases of the temperature shock tests in
accordance with MIL-STD-810, Method 503, Procedure 1 and as described below. The
aggravated thermal shock cycle may be substituted for the phased thermal shock approach
described below (see paragraph A.1-2.4.2). Munitions are tested in their unpackaged configuration
when applicable.
a. Low Temperature Phase. Conduct five cycles of the low temperature phase temperature
shock test in accordance with MIL-STD-810, Method 503, Procedure 1 and the following test
parameters:
(1) The high temperature shall be 21 °C and the low temperature chamber shall be
-46 °C.
(2) Munitions are to remain in each chamber until temperature stabilization is
achieved (24 hours maximum).
