THEMIS IDPU PDR I&T REQUIREMENTS- 8 UCB, October 16, 2003 Thermal-Vacuum Testing Components shall be subjected to a minimum of 4 hot-cold cycles Hot temperature shall be at 10°C above the maximum operating predictions and the cold temperature 10°C below the minimum operating predictions Test duration shall be based on the time required to perform performance/ functional testing of the component at each hot and cold temperature plateau (minimum two-hour soak periods shall be conducted) Components shall be operated during the transition times and turn-on demonstrations shall be made at both cold and hot extremes For components that are determined by analysis to be insensitive to vacuum effects, the test requirements may be satisfied by temperature cycling at normal room pressure in an air Cycling at ambient pressure shall be increased (both the temperature range and the number of cycles) to account for uncertainties. The qualification margin of 10 C (in vacuum) shall be increased to 15 C if testing at ambient pressure is performed. Likewise, the number of thermal cycles shall be increased by 50 percent if testing at ambient pressure (e.g., from 4 cycles in vacuum to 6 cycles at ambient pressure). Project approval is required if testing at ambient pressure is implemented. Thermal
