Testing Standard:
ISTA 1G Packaged-Products Weighing 150 lb (68 kg) or Less Utilizing Random Vibration, ie. ISTA Procedure 1G Packaged Products
Standard Number
ISTA 1G
Standard Title
Packaged-Products 150 lb (68 kg) or Less (Random Vibration)
Overview for ISTA Procedure 1G Packaged Products:
Rationale for ISTA Procedure 1G Packaged Products:
ISTA Procedure 1G Packaged Products 150 lbs (68 kg) or Less (Random Vibration). Can be used to compare relative performance of package and product design variations utilizing random vibration and shock tests (drop or incline impact). The procedure is used to create harsh worst-case hazards in a laboratory environment while comparing multiple design variation packaging systems.
Key Points:
- Evaluates the performance of a packaged-product
- Provides a guide to evaluate packaging systems in the laboratory environment
- If a partial-simulation test is to be utilized, see ISTA 1C
- Use ISTA 3A for packaged-products that may be transported in a small parcel delivery system
