Providing Innovative Solutions for RF/EMP/Lightning Hardening Applications and Extensive Testing Capabilities to Verify Proper Adherence to Military Standards. SARA offers a full range of fixed-facility, transportable systems, aircraft, and surface ship hardening design, manufacturing support, hardness verification testing, and hardness surveillance. We are the one-stop solution for MIL-STD test services providing support through all phases of the life cycle of these critical assets. Our EMP Survivability and Effects testing team conducts a variety of tests on systems using all several test methodologies listed in MIL-STD including Shielding Effectiveness (SE), Pulse Current Injection (PCI), and Continuous Wave Immersion (CWI). We maintain a set of custom state-of-the-art equipment capable of meeting the military standard test requirements. SARA’s experts assist our customers in meeting the requirements of HEMP protected C4ISR facilities per MIL-STD-188-125-1A, transportable systems per MIL-STD-188-125-2, aircraft per MIL-STD-3023, and military surface ships per MIL-STD-4023. This includes requirements allocation, vulnerability assessment, design and production guidance, component testing, verification testing, and hardness maintenance and hardness surveillance planning and testing. • MIL-STD-3023 Consulting • Hardness Allocation Development (MIL-STD 3023, Appendix A) • Hardness Element Development and Validation (MIL-STD 3023, Appendix A and B) • Hardness Assurance and Manufacturing Support (MIL-STD 3023, Appendix B) • HEMP Protection Subsystem Performance Testing - System level CWI test (MIL-STD 3023, Appendix C) • System Verification Test - AST, PST and Direct Drive Test at Pax River (MIL-STD 3023, Appendix D) • Hardness Maintenance/Hardness Surveillance Support (MIL-STD 3023, Appendix E) • Custom Direct Drive Pulsers for Driving Cables and Antennas • Custom CWI Instrumentation System • Lightning Testing: - Available Standard Lightning Waveform - Custom Built-To-Order Lighting Waveform Generators • HEMP/EMP System Design and Approach: - A&E Support for HEMP Subject Matter (design submittal review, authoring of detailed performance specifications, system design principles) - Hardening Design for C4ISR Systems - Component Qualification Testing and Evaluation - Component Risk Reduction & Simulated Verification Testing • MIL-STD-188-125-1A and MIL-STD-188-125-2 Acceptance and Verification Testing: - Shielding Effectiveness (SE) - Pulse Current Injection (PCI) - Continuous Wave Immersion (CWI) - Unique/Challenging Small-Volume Testing • Time-Domain Pulsed E-field Testing: - Fast Transients (similar to RS105) • Magneto-Hydrodynamic Drive Saturation Testing from E3 Drive: - Power System Testing - Component Susceptibility Testing • MIL-STD-4023 consulting • Hardness Allocation Development (MIL-STD 4023, Appendix A) • Hardness GFE Immunity Testing (MIL-STD 4023, Appendix A and B) • Shipyard Protective Elements Testing (MIL-STD 4023, Appendix C) • HEMP Protection Subsystem Performance Testing - System level CWI test (MIL-STD 4023, Appendix C) • System Verification Test - AST, PST and Direct Drive Test at Pax River (MIL-STD 4023, Appendix D) • Hardness Maintenance/Hardness Surveillance Support (MIL-STD 4023, Appendix E) • Custom Direct Drive Pulsers for Driving Cables and Antennas • Custom CWI Instrumentation System
