ISO 11905 Emergency Power Supply System Testing
The ISO 11905 standard is a critical benchmark in aerospace and aviation safety, ensuring the reliability of emergency power supply systems (EPS) used in aircraft. This testing ensures that EPS can provide uninterrupted electrical power during emergencies, thereby safeguarding passengers and crew lives.
Our laboratory specializes in providing comprehensive ISO 11905 compliance tests for EPS, focusing on the stringent requirements outlined by this international standard. These include voltage stability, current flow, and fault tolerance under various environmental conditions. Our facility is equipped with state-of-the-art testing equipment that can simulate real-world scenarios, ensuring accurate and reliable results.
For our clients, we offer a range of services from initial consultation to final certification. Our team of experienced engineers will work closely with you to understand your specific needs and ensure all aspects of the EPS are thoroughly tested according to ISO 11905 guidelines. This includes not only functional tests but also durability tests under extreme conditions such as high temperatures, humidity, and altitude variations.
Our testing process adheres strictly to international standards, including ISO 11905-2 which specifies the test methods for electrical systems in aircraft. By doing so, we guarantee that your EPS will meet global safety requirements, opening up opportunities for market expansion into regions with strict regulatory frameworks.
The importance of this testing cannot be overstated. In case of an emergency landing or other critical situation, having a reliable EPS can mean the difference between life and death. Our laboratory takes pride in its role as a guardian of aviation safety by ensuring that every component meets the highest quality standards.
Applied Standards
- ISO 11905-2: Specifies test methods for electrical systems in aircraft, including EPS.
- IEC 61558: Covers safety requirements for power supplies used in industrial automation and control systems. While not specific to aviation, it complements ISO 11905 by providing broader insights into the design of safe power supply units.
Industry Applications
| Situation | Description |
|---|---|
| Aircraft Emergency Landing | In the event of an emergency landing, EPS must maintain power supply to critical systems such as communication devices and lighting until rescue services arrive. |
| Severe Weather Conditions | Demonstrating that EPS can function reliably even when subjected to high altitudes or extreme temperatures is crucial for ensuring safety during flights in challenging environments. |
| Malfunction Detection and Recovery | We also conduct tests aimed at identifying potential issues within the EPS early on, allowing for timely repairs before they become critical failures. |
