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.

Terminal Mechanical Strength Test
The terminal strength test is used to performed to determine whether the design of electrical terminals and their method of attachment can withstand mechanical stresses to which they will be subjected during installation or disassembly in equipment. These stresses must be withstood by the component without sustaining damage which would affect either the integrity of the terminals or the operation of the component part itself. Procedures are established in this method for testing, for example wire-lead terminals, flexible-flat-strip or tab-lead terminals, and rigid-type terminals which are threaded or have other arrangements for attaching conductors. The forces applied during the test consist of direct axial, radial or tension pulls, twist, bending torsion, and the torque exerted by the application of nuts or screws on threaded terminals.

Emergency Conditions Testing
Electromagnetic interference (also known as radio frequency interference) tests are used to determine the electromagnetic characteristics of electrical, electronic, and electro-mechanical equipment. Electromagnetic interference, both radiated or conducted, can affect the performance of equipment. Electromagnetic interference tests are specified as follows: conducted emission, radiated emission, conducted susceptibility, and radiated susceptibility.

Strain Gauge Test
This test measures the structural stresses induced in equipment when subjected to various environmental and operational loads. Strain gages, which are resistive devices whose outputs are proportional to the amount that they are deformed under strain, are placed at selected locations to yield stress levels which may then be compared to design allowable limits.

Fungus Test
The fungus test assesses the extent to which material will support fungal growth and how any fungal growth may affect performance. The fungus test also identifies how rapidly fungus will grow on the material, and how fungus affects the material, its mission, and its safety for use following the growth of fungus on the material.

Sand & Dust Test
This test method is divided into two procedures. The small particle procedure, using fine dust is performed to ascertain the ability of equipment to resist the effects of fine particles which may penetrate into cracks, crevices, bearings, and joints. The blowing sand test, using coarse particles, is performed to determine whether equipment can be stored and operated under blowing sand conditions without experiencing degradation of its performance, effectiveness, reliability, and maintainability due to the abrasion or clogging effect of large, sharp-edged particles.

Vibration Test
Vibration testing determines the dynamic effects on component part of vibration within the frequency ranges and magnitudes that may be encountered during field service. Vibration, for example, causes loosening of parts or relative motion between parts in the specimen, producing objectionable operating characteristics, noise, wear, and physical distortion, and often results in fatigue and failure of mechanical parts.

Explosive Atmosphere Test
This test demonstrates that a part will not ignite while operating in an explosive ambient atmosphere. The tests are conducted at ground level pressure as well as reduced barometric pressures, in a closed explosion-proof chamber.

Pressure Test
The pressure tests demonstrate if a test item can operate to its standard while undergoing extreme rapid pressure changes. Two of the pressure tests are: altitude (low pressure), and explosive decompression.
