MIL-DTL-12883F
4.7.10 Humidity (see 3.5.9). Sockets shall be tested in accordance with method 1002 of MIL-STD-1344,
test condition II omitting steps 7a and 7b. After testing sockets shall meet the requirements of 3.5.9. The
following details shall apply:
a. Initial measurements: Not applicable.
b. Loading voltage: None.
c.
Drying period: 5 minutes maximum. Excess water may be shaken off during this period.
4.7.11 Durability (see 3.5.10). Sockets shall be tested in accordance with method 2015 of MIL-STD-
1344. The applicable durability test gauge (see appendix) shall be fully inserted into and withdrawn from
the socket 150 times. The socket shall then be inspected for damage (see 3.5.10).
4.7.12 Static load (when specified) (see 3.5.11).
a. Sockets shall be mounted in normal position on a .125 inch (3.17 mm) metal plate.
b. The specified force (see 3.1) shall be applied perpendicular to the plane of the saddle, first to the
top of the insulator body and then to the bottom of the insulator body.
c.
The sockets shall then be inspected for damage (see 3.5.11).
4.7.13 Contact tab flexure (when specified) (see 3.1 and 3.5.12). Each contact tab of the socket under
test shall be tested in accordance with method 211, test condition B, MIL-STD-202. Number of bending
operations shall be five. After testing sockets shall meet the requirements of 3.5.12.
4.7.14 Thermal shock (see 3.5.13).
4.7.14.1 Plastic sockets (see 3.5.13.1). Unless otherwise specified (see 3.1), sockets shall be subjected
to temperature cycling in accordance with method 1003 of MIL-STD-1344, test condition A, except that
temperature extremes shall be -65°C +0°C, -5°C and +125°C +3°C, -0°C. After testing, sockets shall meet
the requirements of 3.5.13.1.
4.7.14.2 Ceramic sockets (see 3.5.13.2). Unless otherwise specified (see 3.1), ceramic sockets shall be
subjected to 20 successive cycles of immersion in water, each cycle consisting of a 10 minute immersion in
a bath of water at a temperature of 4°C +0°C, -4°C, followed by a 10 minute immersion in a bath of water at
a temperature of 94°C +6°C, -0°C. Upon completion of the last cycle, sockets shall be permitted to dry at
room temperature, and shall then be inspected for evidence of damage. After testing, sockets shall meet
the requirements of 3.5.13.2.
