Environmental Exposure (Climatics) Testing Services

Environmental exposure (climatics) testing services use humidity, pressure, temperature, vibration, exposure to ultraviolet light (UV) and other climatic variables to test samples, parts and components, and finished products. Companies differ in terms of capabilities and services, testing services, industries and applications, certifications and approvals, and system and facility assessments. Environmental exposure (climatics) testing services play an important role in product and component testing, a larger process which includes electrical, dynamic, ergonomic and other specialized tests.

Environmental exposure (climatics) testing services differ in terms of capabilities and services. These include component and product testing, component and product comparison, certification, consulting and training, data acquisition (DAC) and instrumentation, engineering and design verification testing (DVT), and evaluation and inspection. Environmental exposure (climatics) testing services may also offer in-process or in-line testing, performance testing, qualification and commissioning, reliability or robustness testing, research and development (R&D), safety and liability testing, and test development. Test fixture, test equipment, test panel, and sample preparation services are also available.

Environmental exposure (climatics) testing services also differ in terms of environmental services offered. Some companies specialize in loss of coolant accidents (LOCA), aging or life testing, altitude simulation, chemical analysis, corrosion inspection, or tests with blowing sand or dust. Other environmental exposure (climatics) testing services perform decompression or vacuum testing, electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) testing, or intrinsic safety (IS) assessment. Companies that perform flow or pressure testing, humidity testing, stress screening, and thermal cycling are also available. Accelerated testing and screening includes highly accelerated life testing (HALT) and highly accelerated stress screening (HASS). 

Environmental exposure (climatics) testing services may specialize in space and avionics equipment, appliances, automotive parts, building products, commercial food equipment, consumer electronics, fasteners, food and drugs, electrical distribution products, combustion equipment, hazardous location equipment, or health care and medical equipment. Environmental exposure (climatics) testing services may also test HVAC equipment, illuminators and lighting products, industrial equipment and machinery, instrument sensors, IT and telecommunications equipment, laboratory equipment, latex products, marine equipment, motors, motor controllers and control systems, packaging products, plumbing products, RF and wireless products, rubber products, semiconductors, and IC packages, and transportation and carrier safety management products. 

Providers of environmental exposure (climatics) testing services offer a variety of certifications.  These include but are not limited to CE Mark (Europe), CSA (Canada) FCC (US), VCCI (Japan), DENAN (Japan), TUV-GS (Germany), EZU (Czechoslovakia), RLL (Korea), PCBC (Poland), C-TICK (Australia), PSB (Singapore), IRAM (Argentina), NOM (Mexico), SABS (South Africa), GOST (Russia), T Mark (Taiwan), and BSMI (Taiwan). Environmental exposure (climatics) testing services with facility accreditations may be certified or qualified to meet the requirements of ISO 7779, ISO 9000, ISO 13485, ISO 14000, ISO 17025, ISO / TS 16949, QS 9000, TE supplement, and TL 9000.
