Dust Test specifications are designed to test a COMMON SAND AND DUST TESTS PERFORMED AT
component’s resistance to a dust filled environment. In a CASCADE TEK:
dust test chamber, a specific type of dust is injected and • SAE J1455
agitated throughout the chamber. The dust then settles, • SAE J-575
covering the product under test. • IEC Ingress Protection (IP) tests for the
protection against solid foreign objects
Cascade TEK’s HALT/ HASS test set up features multiple response channels,
dedicated technicians and complete reporting capabilities.
Testing Method: Random vibration in six degrees stress and fatigue. Large vibration table features 3/8th
of freedom, combined with very rapid temperature -16 inserts on 4” grid for product mounting options.

Acceleration Testing
Cascade TEK’s centrifuge is one of the largest available in a commercial
lab. With an 8’ Arm and up to 100g’s of acceleration, it’s ideal for the Crash
Safety testing required by RTCA DO-160. The crash safety test verifies that
equipment will not detach from its mountings or separate and become
dangerous during an emergency landing.
Cascade TEK is a member in good standing of RTCA. ACCELERATION TESTING SERVICES INCLUDE:
Our lab can perform the wide variety of tests called • Large Centrifuge For Crash Safety / Avionics Testing
out in the categories required by RTCA within DO-160: • Various Acceleration Rates
