2) Acceptance Test
ESS shall be conducted as acceptance test. VSWR should be measured during all PREET,
INSET & POET. The measured VSWR should be entered in table . ESS shall consist of
following tests:
a) Pre-random Vibration
The vibration levels are as given below:
20Hz to 100Hz +6 db/Octave
100Hz to 1000Hz 0.04 g
2
/Octave
1000Hz to 2000Hz -6db/Octave
Duration of Vibration test shall be 300ms along mounting axis only. Measured VSWR
shall be <1.5:1.

a) Thermal Cycling:
The profile shall be as given below:
Measured VSWR shall be <1.5.
b) Post Random Vibration
Post Random Vibration will be identical to Pre-random Vibration.
