Rain Test

The rain test is performed to evaluate a product’s resistance to rainfall conditions. This test is critical for outdoor equipment, defense systems, and external electronic devices. Applications are carried out in accordance with the relevant standard requirements, primarily MIL-STD-810 F/G/H and RTCA DO-160G.

Objective Target

  • To measure the product’s resistance to water ingress.
  • To verify sealing performance and the functionality of electronic and mechanical components.
  • To test long-term durability under rain, storm, or humid conditions.

Technical Implementation Process

  • Rain tests are performed in accordance with MIL-STD-810, RTCA DO-160, IEC, ISO, EN, ETSI, ASTM, and other applicable national/international standards.
  • To enable functional testing, all specimen interfaces (communications, power cables, etc.) are routed to the laboratory environment through the rain test setup’s hermetic ports.
  • This allows the product to be tested while simulating real water exposure conditions as accurately as possible.

Standards Coverage MIL / RTCA

  • Rain robustness verification in accordance with MIL-STD-810 F/G/H methods.
  • Evaluation in compliance with RTCA DO-160G requirements for aviation applications.

Application Areas Use Cases

  • Outdoor equipment and external electronic devices
  • Defense systems and platform subsystems

At STEST, we perform rain testing using controlled water exposure scenarios in accordance with relevant standards, primarily MIL-STD-810 and RTCA DO-160G, and provide the results through detailed reporting.
