MIL-STD-810H
503.7 Temperature Shock
MIL-STD-810 Part Two, Method 503.7
What It Evaluates
Stabilize the item at each temperature extreme and complete transfers within 1 minute, unless the actual service transition requires otherwise. Air velocity should remain below 1.7 m/s (335 ft/min).
When It Applies
Applies when the product lifecycle, platform, storage, transport, deployment, or operating environment includes credible exposure.
Likely Procedures
Procedure selection requires engineering review of the item lifecycle and contract requirements.
Typical Ranges / Conditioning
Severity, duration, and conditions require engineering tailoring; no generic value is assigned by this tool. Conditioning details require review by qualified engineers and applicable contract requirements.
This tool provides preliminary planning information only. Final MIL-STD-810H, MIL-STD-461, and RTCA DO-160 requirements must be reviewed and tailored by qualified engineers based on the product, lifecycle, platform, environment, and contract requirements.
