Environment Test

Auto Ignition lays great emphasis on the MEOST which works on the under lying principle “Testing to failure is more important than success testing”. In this, the product is subjected to multiple Environment stresses to almost three times the design limits.

This test is an attempt to foresee the field failures which are then analyzed and corrected for enhanced product reliability.

Auto Ignition has developed following MEOST based on the field failure and in house Testing.
  • Environmental chamber for Alternator to overstress products by subjecting them to vibration, Heat, cold, thermal shock (125º c to –40º c) & humidity.
  • Environmental chamber for starter motors to overstress Products by subjecting them to steam (at 125º c) followed by Chilled water jet at a pressure of 20kg/cm² & 1 minute Continuous cranking.
  • Environmental chamber for alternator to overstress Products by subjecting them to heat, dust & rain with Variable load.
