4.5 Test methods.
4.5.1 Examination of product. The indicator shall be inspected to determine compliance
with the requirements specified herein with respect to materials, workmanship, and markings.
Prior to assembly, dials, pointers, and synchros shall be inspected as to markings, dimensions,
and finishes.
4.5.2 Dielectric strength. A potential of 200 V at a commercial frequency shall be
applied between any pin of the electrical receptacle and the case of the indicator for a minimum
period of 5 seconds. There shall be no breakdown of the insulation.
4.5.3 Electrical zero. The electrical zero test and the verification of leads shall be
accomplished on the completed indicator with the case removed. A voltage of 26 V ± 1 V single
phase shall be applied to the rotor of the synchro with leads designated R1 and R2. R2 shall be
connected to the ground or low potential side of the power input. With a lead designated as S2
connected to R2, the following conditions shall exist at electrical zero:
a. The voltage between the remaining stator terminals designated S1 and S3 shall be
minimal.
b. The voltage between R1 and S3 shall be near the low null and shall reach the low null
when the rotor is rotated clockwise approximately 30 degrees from electrical zero.
4.5.4 Scale error and friction. The indicator shall be tested for scale error at ambient
temperature at the test points specified in table II. The indicator shall be lightly tapped or
vibrated before each reading to remove normal instrument friction. The scale errors shall not
exceed the tolerances specified in table II. The friction error test may be conducted in
conjunction with the scale error test. The difference between readings before and after the
indicator is tapped or vibrated shall constitute friction error. Friction error shall not exceed the
tolerances specified in table III. This procedure shall be accomplished both up-scale and down-
scale at the test points specified.
4.5.5 Position error. The indicator pointer shall be positioned at the electrical zero
reference mark with power applied. The change in pointer position when the indicator is held in
any position shall not exceed the value specified in table III.
4.5.6 Sealing. The indicator case shall be tested for leaks by means of a mass-
spectrometer-type helium leak detector. The detected leak rate shall not exceed 0.1 micron cubic
foot per hour at a pressure differential of 1 atmosphere.
