Significance and Use3.1 Vibration encountered in the field is not usually simpleharmonic.3.2 This test can be used to determine relative motionbetween parts, critical frequencies, adhesion strengths, loosen-ing of parts or other physical effects that can cause fatigue orf

7、ailure.3.3 Experience has shown that this test will expose potentialfailures associated with the electronic components of a mem-brane switch, where tests of lower levels will not.3.4 This practice can be used to qualify a membrane switchfor aerospace, medical and other applications.3.5 This test is

8、potentially destructive, intended for devicequalification.3.6 Either Test Condition A or B can be chosen, based uponthe intent of the test determined by the qualified engineer.4. Apparatus4.1 Vibration Fixture, capable of holding the unit under testand subjecting it to the specified random frequency
