Solar Radiation (Sunshine)

Purpose of Tests

  • 1. To determine the heating effects of direct solar radiation on materiel
  • 2. To identify the actinic (photo degradation) effects of direct solar radiation.

    • Effects of solar radiation environments.

    Heating effects.

  • • Weakening of solder joints and glued parts.
  • • Changes in strength and elasticity.
  • • Loss of calibration or malfunction of linkage devices.
  • • Loss of seal integrity.
  • • Changes in electrical or electronic components.

    • Actinic effects.

  • • Fading of fabric and plastic color.
  • • Checking, chalking, and fading of paints.
  • • Deterioration of natural and synthetic elastomers and polymers through photochemical reactions initiated by shorter wavelength radiation

    • Two test procedures,

  • Procedure I (Cycling (thermal effects))

    • To investigate response temperatures when materiel is exposed in the open in realistically hot climates and is expected to perform without degradation during and after exposure.

    Procedure II (Steady State(actinic effects)).

    To investigate the effects on materiel of long periods of exposure to sunshine.

    Field Evaluations

    Field Evaluations

    Field Evaluations are onsite product approvals designed for limited quantities or specialized equipment where certification is not the fastest or most cost effective option
