2.1 | 8 | \\The Humidity test is directed by the test leader Christiaan van Ommeren. The test checks the |
9 | humidity resistance of suit elements like the helmet, the PLSS (portable life support system), the | ||
10 | communication system and other hardware. Potential hazards within the tests are condensation and | ||
11 | fire. The Humidity test involves three Subtests (A-C). | ||
12 | |||
13 | |||
14 | **Subtest A: **The tested temperature is set at 30° Celsius and at a RH (relative humidity) of 75%. This | ||
15 | Subtest checks the temperature of the helmet and the PLSS. Also it checks the functionality of the | ||
16 | communication system, the sensors and other hardware under these circumstances. The test will | ||
17 | take about 8 minutes. | ||
18 | |||
19 | **Subtest B: **The tested temperature is set at 30° Celsius and at a RH of 100%. The same fields are | ||
20 | tested, but under a higher percentage of relative humidity (temperature of the helmet and PLSS, | ||
21 | communication system, sensor functionality, other hardware). | ||
22 | |||
23 | **Subtest C: **The tested temperature is set at __**//XX° (TBC)//**__ Celsius. In this test, the functionality of the | ||
24 | same fields as in Subtest A and B are checked but under light rain conditions. To start the test the | ||
25 | rain simulator has to be checked and the space suit has to be transported outside. The temperature | ||
26 | of the helmet and the PLSS are checked before starting the rain simulation (two meters over the | ||
27 | suit). Now the same checks are carried out (temperature of the helmet and PLSS, communication | ||
28 | system, sensor functionality, other hardware). | ||
