Quality Control & Reliability Testing
To guarantee consistent performance of the EPL 0S/1S sockets, LINKHIVE applies strict quality and durability testing at every stage:
Dimensional Accuracy of brass plug sockets:
All molded components are measured with high-precision tools to ensure perfect fit and contact alignment on PCBs.
Contact Integrity:
Gold-plated contacts are tested for conductivity, durability, and resistance to oxidation or solder cracking.
Push-Pull Life Cycle Test:
Each socket is validated to withstand over 5000 mating/unmating cycles under rated load without performance loss.
Vibration & Shock Resistance:
Sockets are subjected to vibration tests (15g @ 10–2000Hz) and shock tests (100g / 6ms) to simulate harsh operational environments.
Salt Spray & Humidity:
Connector surfaces are tested for up to 96 hours salt spray and 95% humidity at 60°C to verify anti-corrosion capacity.
PCB Retention Strength:
The socket’s PCB legs and body undergo torque and shear testing to ensure durability after soldering.
