Project Title: Fluids and Mechanical Ingress Test System
Required EE Area(s) of Expertise: Controls, microprocessor, circuit design, Fluidics, LabView.
Brief Project Description: Using Systems Engineering methodologies develop a system that can facilitate and automate testing to ensure compliance to the standard IEC 60529, Degrees of protection provided by enclosures (IP Code). The testing will include fluid ingress and mechanical/dust ingress assessments. Objective: Develop internal capability for consistently performing IEC 60529 standards compliance testing Deliverable: Develop and build a system or systems that conform to IEC 60529 and facilitate compliance with the product’s stated IP code
Major system products expected from this project: LabVIEW Interface, PCB design, working prototype.
Parts of the project that “Engineering Design” is expected (e.g., mathematical calculations and/or verification simulations): All aspects of Engineering Design including mathematical calculations and/or verification, simulations, and test
The level of support (Time: technical guidance, materials, computing, financial, etc.) for the project. If no financial support will be provided, please offer an estimate of the Materials Cost: There will be funds available to cover hardware/software tools required for the project from the sponsor
