Environmental Stress Screening (ESS) Handbook

Abstract

This document defines the Reliability and Maintainability (R&M) 2000 Environmental Stress Screening (ESS) requirements for electronic and electromechanical equipment. This document provides for a uniform ESS program which will be used to disclose manufacturing and part defects in electronic equipment. Design deficiencies may also be disclosed although this is not the primary purpose of ESS. This document is intended to be used as a guideline for incorporating ESS in all purchase requests. In addition, this document is applicable to existing hardware that is to be repaired (either contract repair or organic repair). The guidelines described herein shall be applied to electronic and electromechanical items at the Line Replaceable Unit (LRU) level, Line Replaceable Module (LRM) level and the Shop Replaceable Unit (SRU) level. This includes replacement items as well as replenishment spare parts.
