1.1) Approval of electric and electronic components
(Equipment Qualification according to RTCA/DO-160)
RTCA/DO-160 RTCA/DO-160 defines a series of minimum standard environmental test
conditions and applicable test procedures for airborne equipment. The
purpose of these tests is to provide a laboratory means of determining the
performance characteristics of airborne equipment in environmental condi-
tions representative of those which may be encountered in airborne opera-
tion of the equipment.
Electric and Electronic components (incl. wiring harness, ECU, Fuse Box,
PMA, Sensors and Actuators) of the 912 iS / 912 iSc are deemed to be
part of the Equipment and therefore tested and qualified according to the
following table:
X...............Test not performed
* ...............Components were tested at „operating low temperature“ of
- 25° C (- 13° F) instead of - 45° C (- 49° F) and „Altitude“ of 18.000 ft
instead of 25.000 ft.
