Low Outgassing Accelerometers and Cables Designed For Space

This webinar will provide an overview of approved accelerometer design and testing practices used to achieve hermeticity and satisfy ASTM restrictions on TMP (total mass loss) and CVCM (collected volatile condensable mass) when exposed to a thermal vacuum environment. A case study of PCB Model 356M98, cables and hermetic feed-thru connectors for vibration testing on the Suomi NPP Satellite demonstrates additional precautions that may be taken to ensure that low outgassing requirements are met.
