MIL-DTL-13484G
4.6.5 Environmental tests.
4.6.5.1 Corrosion. Subsequent to testing as specified in 4.6.5.3.1, the switch shall be opened and
the spring, contact point, and soldered connections shall be visually examined to determine conformance
to 3.6.1.
4.6.5.2 Fungus. To determine conformance to 3.6.2, the switch shall be subjected to the test
specified in ASTM-G21, class 1, method A, except that examination shall be made after 90 days.
4.6.5.3 Waterproofness.
4.6.5.3.1 Qualification and control tests. To determine conformance to 3.6.3, the switch shall be
subjected to the test specified in MIL-HDBK-1184, method 100, procedure 1, except that the switch shall
not be operated while submerged.
4.6.5.3.2 Acceptance test. To determine conformance to 3.6.3, the switch shall be subjected to the
test specified in MIL-HDBK-1184, method 100, procedure 5.
4.6.5.4 Extreme temperature. To determine conformance to 3.6.4, the switch shall be subjected to
4.6.5.4.1 Low temperature operation. The switch shall be conditioned for 24 hours at 51 ± 3șC.
While still in ambient air at that temperature, the switch shall be operated for 1000 cycles (see 4.3.1)
while connected to a rated resistive, load current of 15 amperes and the release time measured.
4.6.5.4.2 High temperature operation. The switch shall be conditioned for 24 hours at 74șC ± 3șC.
While still in ambient air at that temperature, the switch shall be operated for 1000 cycles (see 4.3.1)
while connected to a rated resistive load current of 15 amperes and the release time measured.
5. PACKAGING
5.1 Packaging. For acquisition purposes, the packaging requirements shall be as specified in the
contract or order (see 6.2). When packaging of materiel is to be performed by DoD or in-house contractor
personnel, these personnel need to contact the responsible packaging activity to ascertain packaging
requirements. Packaging requirements are maintained by the Inventory Control Point's packaging
activities within the Military Service or Defense Agency, or within the military service's system commands.
Packaging data retrieval is available from the managing Military Department's or Defense Agency's
automated packaging files, CD-ROM products, or by contacting the responsible packaging activity.
