Aero Nav Laboratories, Inc.
Aero Nav Laboratories is a full service environmental simulation lab which has served the military and industrial communities since 1974. Aero Nav Labs has developed a strong foundation of testing experience and capability and performs a wide variety of tests such as shock, vibration, highly accelerated stress, screening (HASS), highly accelerated life tests (HALT), salt spray, explosion, fire resistance, and more. The tests are conducted in accordance with numerous military, commercial, automotive, transportation, marine, aerospace and medical specifications. The laboratory offers additional services to its customers such as functional and developmental testing as well as engineering technical support. The technical support includes analyses, test program design and review of tests results. Aero Nav Labs is also capable of providing contract work services such as contract manufacturing (small quantities), prototype manufacturing, component assembly, field inspection, test witnessing and verification.

Highly Accelerated Life (HALT) Test
HALT consists of high and low temperature and 3 axis vibration testing performed either individually or in combination.Highly accelerated life testing is performed to identify design weaknesses and problems prior to production. HALT subjects equipment to overstress conditions at a level which does affect life, but offers an advantage by reducing the design and development phases of a program.

Highly Accelerated Stress Screening (HASS) Test
HASS consists of high and low temperature and 3 axis vibration testing performed either individually or in combination.Highly accelerated stress screening is a technique for identifying process flaws in equipment during production. HASS subjects equipment to overstress conditions but at a level which does not affect design life.For assistance in designing a HASS test program contact the laboratory.

Induced Signals Test
The test relates to interfering signals that may be generated by interconnected equipment. Induced signal testing is used to determine if equipment will withstand various signals, such as might be introduced by failures in other equipment to which the test unit is connected.

Moisture Resistance/ Humidity Test
This test is performed for evaluating the resistance of component parts and constituent materials to the deteriorative effects of the high-humidity and heat conditions typical of tropical environments. Most tropical degradation results directly or indirectly from absorption of moisture vapor, and from surface wetting. These phenomena produce many types of deterioration, including corrosion of metals; physical distortion and decomposition of organic materials; leaching out of constituent components of materials, and detrimental changes in electrical properties.

Noise Test
Noise testing is conducted to determine if materials can withstand external noises generated by various sources. It also includes air-borne and structure-borne noise measurements.

product
Ozone Test
Ozone is an extremely reactive form of oxygen occurring around electrical discharges. It is also present in the atmosphere, but in small quantities. Ozone testing is performed to determine the effect on materials such as rubber, plastics, etc, which are susceptible to ozone-induced degradation.

Package Handling Test
This test subjects packaged items to the stresses encountered during handling, transportation and storage. The tests consist of drop tests, storage tests such as stacking and compression, temperature tests and transportation vibration tests.

Particle Impact Noise Detection (PIND) Test
This test detects the presence of free moving particulate contaminants within sealed cavity devices. This test is specifically directed toward relays and other devices where internal mechanism noise makes rejection exclusively by threshold level impractical. This test method also may be used prior to final sealing in the manufacturing sequence as a means of eliminating loose particles from the interior of the device.

Acceleration Testing
The acceleration test is performed on a centrifuge to assure that material can structurally withstand the steady state inertia loads that are induced by platform acceleration, deceleration, and maneuver in the service environment, and can function without degradation during and following exposure to these forces. Acceleration tests are also used to assure that material does not become hazardous after exposure to crash loads. The acceleration test method is applicable to material that is installed in mobile platforms such as aircraft, helicopters, aerospace vehicles, air-carried stores, ground-launched missiles, trains, ships, automotive vehicles, etc.
