MIL-STD-810 Vibration Testing Overview

MIL-STD-810: Vibration Testing Category 4 – Truck/Trailer – Secured Cargo

Procedure I (General Vibration), Category 9 of Method 514.7 Vibration testing details the vibration profile of cargo carried in helicopters.  This vibration profile is unique because it superimposes strong narrowband peaks of sinusoidal vibration caused by rotating components such as the main or tail rotors, over low-level wideband random vibration caused by aerodynamic flow.  This vibration profile is generally referred to as Sine on Random Vibration Testing.  Figure 1 outlines the typical vibration profile and the variables which are determined based upon the type of helicopter as well as the location on the helicopter where your product will be used or stored.  Tables 1 and 2 define the equations and properties used to determine the variables used in the Figure 1 plot.

Default test duration is 4 hours in each of 3 orthogonal axes for a total test time of 12 hours.  This test duration represents a 2500-hour operational life.  The levels in Figure 1, Tables 1 and 2 are intended to envelope worst-case environments, and have been aggressively compressed in time from 2500 hours to 4 hours.
