Shock may be applied in the X, Y, or Z axis. Shock is not to be repeated more than once every 2 seconds.
Note.
This specification does not cover connection issues that may result from testing at this level.
b. Non-operating
The limits of non-operating shock shall apply to all conditions of handling and transportation. This includes
both isolated drives and integrated drives.
The drive subjected to nonrepetitive shock not exceeding the three values below, shall not exhibit device
damage or performance degradation.
• 1000 Gs at a maximum duration of 0.5ms (half sinewave)
Shock may be applied in the X, Y, or Z axis.
